So are there any Victorians that use this site or am I the only one? Is anyone going down to Phillip Island Magic in late November? I remember when I used to be an official at all of those, now I am a pit crew and next year I am a competitor. Funny how things change really. So if you are, what are the reasons for venturing down? To watch, to compete, to crew, to officiate, to make a public spectacle of yourself? Or to go down for the usual Saturday night ****-up at the Isle of Wight Hotel. My goodness I have made a fool of myself there. One night I had my cap stolen and got auctioned off to the highest bidder, because my team happened to be my Dad's and he is the National Clerk of Course at the F1 GP in Melbourne. So of course it becomes a bit of an icon to have stolen a team hat off my dad.
Also who is going to Bathurst, I have been invited by Tim Schenkens twin daughters. but unfortunately I am going to be in QLD playing golf on their phenomenal courses. but Island magic is when I get back. So if you plan on coming down I'll have a beer with you at the Isle. Check ya later Cameron Duncan |

Looks like I am the only Victorian to use this site. Is there any other people from the southern states, such as South Australia or Tasmania that use this site?

I was there testing last friday. It is a ***** of a place to get to though. Especially seeing as petrol costs so much these days, and I have to partially fund test days myself. However all things going well you should see me down there next year.

Well Island magic is going to be a huge weekend. It is unofficial, yet a realistic possibility that we will be getting a Friday practice session before the Island Magic weekend. this adds up to a lot of alcohol being drunk on the Friday night and some very hung over pit crew for qualifying. Anyway if anyone is heading down for it, I think it is the weekend after Bathurst or maybe two weekends, not sure. If you do come down, look out for the Blue Forty Winks RX7 (you won't miss it, always stands out) Car number 40 of course. And come and say hello.
