- Runway is 2.2km long with 1050m sealed braking area and 150m dirt run off, so there is plenty of braking distance.
- Runway is being commercially swept on the Thursday/Friday mornings and Lunch breaks on Friday/Saturday before the event, from one end to the other and side to side by a highway sweeper, not a Gutter sweeper like last year, so it will be significantly better.

Will definitely be back this year - new car on the privateer day trying to make it 3 years in a row as fasted unmodified, and will be pushing to get my Golf R there on the tuner day to see if we can keep some EVOs honest.

Would be great to see some more VWs this year too.

You might have to battle a McLaren and a 458 now as well

I agree

I've emailed my details in and hope to be there again this year. Would love to have some other VW peeps there to talk (drink) with

Last year it was myself, BugRacer (Seb) and another guy (who I don't think is from here) who had is toy Polo as a "spare" car run by a mate while he drove his Lambo

Met a pile of good people, had a few laughs over dinner, although would love to actually make a decent weekend of it this time around with Friday night drinks and actually stay overnight on the Saturday after the presentation (unlike last year where this crazy bastard decided to make a run for Sydney AFTER the presentation... nothing like a 1am arrival home).

Got both of your emails there Aaron

Funny thing, is that of the VAG, Audi's seem to be the least likely to enter

Thanks for that, really looking forward to the event this year after I have solved my TCS issue.

Oh, and I should have added earlier

I'll bring my S3 this year (probably) . I would have thought Seat would be the least likely to enter .

The problem I find is that there is not many real VW Racing enthuisiasts in this country . Everything from Drag racing to circuit racing , hillclimbs to time attack , there is less than 20 or so cars Australia wide that regularily compete

The other guy was me.

My mate drove the Polo as he'd entered his Civic but it didn't meet CAMS regulations in regards to suitable tow points, so the Polo was a last minute substitution.

Clearly I failed at following basic instructions. I missed the part that said "Entries open at midnight on the 1st April, 2013" and completed and sent in the entry the moment I received it I'm maybe a little excited to get back out again this year.

I suppose I will have to resend the entry form later tonight.
