Sandown !

[West]

Wow, it was so good being a flaggie. At first i thought yeah, since i can't afford to run i might as well go flaggie, put a bit of effort in for our club cos' i remember back down PI no ones want to be a flaggie and i was wrapt being so close to all the action......

Watching Ben, Andrew, Chris, MR Brisby the AVOR33 flying pass was just so good. Sad to see GTREAL broke down a few times due to the cooler clamp ( last time he broke down was right in front of us ) but THE BEST OF ALL was this BEAST ...

anyone know who this is? Me and Dean ( a Rex official i think ) was hanging out just to see THE BEAST get back on track, this thing was FLYING.

Anyone know what mod it has, the front camber was crazy and ofcourse all of our members and the rexies was putting on a really good show. Now i know when its' the next track day and what to do when i can't affort to run :Pimp2:

a few more pics ..

hey guys, just wondering how often does racing at sandown take place, wouldlove to come down and watch and give my car a run as well.

[ferni]

racing there happens all the time from different clubs. SAU Vic tag along with the WRX track days - you can see a list of them on this page http://www.wrx.com.au/motorsport/default.php

No more sandown track days for the rest of this year with WRX guys. Winton and calder are the only ones left this year. Coming into winter track days usually stop for a while.

Congrats to all the boys for getting some great times at Sandown.

The presence of SAU was excellent both on and off the track.

Lastly, poor Jack who just couldn't seem to finish a session but who managed to keep a smile on his face all day.

Ni - yeah Brisby surprised us all - perhaps we should have more faith in him.

Aaron - thanks - it was hard work taking photos, shooting video footage and still being a semi-compotant flag marshall!!!

Oh yeah and if anyone wants one of the above photos - PM me an email addy and I can send you the full size version.

For obvious reasons it was the most fun ive had at a track day for a while...

Good work to Bec, West, Jarrod for flagging,

And for what its worth, for those that had mishaps, just remember swings and roundabouts so next time will be better:)

Main thing is not only did Gareth walk away from the acco, lol he drove away:)

Mate i dont know if there is anything i can do, bu im on holidays so let me know if you need a set of hands.

And truth be told i was hoping for a 1:27-1:26, the fact that the car easily dipped into the mid 1:25s i was a bit surprised myself, what surprised me more is that it did with smoking the inside tyre onto the two main straights, so with just the diff shimmed up i may go see if i can strangle a low 1:24 out of it:)

Top day as always. Action packed

Troy: A fitting pic for you and Snowy?
