    Congratulations again Sam! Another really tough and close event.

    That’s two big events in a row now you realise. Hopefully the luck doesn’t continue next week in Brisbane ;)

    Cheers Sean,

    2 of the nicest days racing I can remember. Bring on Redcliff and some more close racing hopefully a little closer to Jesper this time.

    My pick of the weekend was Mitch and his lunch of a 12 pack of doughnuts, 4 pack of dips and bag of goon for refreshment. Freak!

    See you guys up there soon.

    Sam.

    Hey Chris, shouldn’t you have already left for Brisbane??

    If Sydney-Melbourne is a 2 day drive… Sydney-Brisbane is a 4 day drive… Racing starts Tuesday.
