Is this a form of delusional humour or logistic imposibility?I suggest your Saturday 12 Hour for old tourers would be the single worst conceived event in Australian motorsport history.

hehehe delusional humour as well as an absolute posibility
Camping and Spectator tickets would be totally booked out 6 months in advance... TV Coverage would get sold for mega dollars... This is what Daddy Denyer should be looking at Racer69, sorry dude... couldnt get Insurance for the bikes |

Start the race at 5am so you could televise the final hour of the race live?

I agree, maybe even start it earlier at 4.30 or something to get more dark running.
A daylight finish is more desireable in my opinion. |

I was thinking back to the 90's when they had the 12 hour and it was awesome watching them at night, if my memory is correct Brock in a Volvo, Grice in Commodore Ute. Those were the good old days! lol

You can count me in mate!!!! Can I download an entry form from somewhere...... Go the 3:25 Diff and 7800rpm down the hill...... The only thing missing is the Improved Production Cars I reckon!!! Can you make the festival a bit longer to squeeze the IP guys into your schedule?? Cheers, CD. Last edited by FalconEL; 19 Apr 2007 at 03:04. |
