Crash Test should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridCrash Test should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
What they have done since that first drama (where traffic went right back to the turn off onto the highway...) is divert northbound traffic, so all of the traffic going into the track has a free go, ie they don't have to stop every minute or so to let the northbound stuff through. Another problem this year is all of the roadworks at that new creek crossing a few kms down the road....i hope someone with a brain tells them not to be working on race weekend...

Generally with the drags, the 40,000 odd people for the big meets like the Winternats, slowly trickle in through the day. Sure there is a bit of congestion getting in and out, but that has more to do with limited entries to the car parks- everyone wants to get in the first one...
