I thought the last two years they ventured into Heathcote for lunch. Need to check about the BBQ, fire restrictions could be in place.

Heathcote Park Raceway

Yeah, We all just used the track canteen in the past... BBQ's might be fine though... i think someone might have had a BBQ last year...

Rodomo, Heads up racing is the same and Grudge racing i think... Just Line up and RACE! This is what the Handbags and Heathcote will be!

1 passenger and if you have a passenger you are only racing yourself. i.e. two people on the track at once.

Dial Your Own is a competition of consistency. You find out how quick you are going, and you set your time to be a coupla tenths quicker than that and try and get as close to it as possible without going under that time. It's a knockout comp so you go back again and again...

you can do as many was you want! The best thing about us booking the track for ourselves is we dont have to line up very long at all!

I reackon stedz got about 30-40 runs last year!

Another update, I went out to Calder tonight and ran my first ever 12 second pass, the only problem now is I have a pretty bad rattle coming from the 308. I hope I can get is sorted before the drag day.
