Default Calder Park Friday the 16th May
Weather permitting we have access to the infield at Calder Park.
This Friday the 16th, I have asked for up to 20 cars.
You must be on the list to race, and once you have posted your interest to race you must send me a PM with your real name for the gate at Calder Park.
All spectators who wish to watch from the infield must be on the list also.
Racing is $65 and $25 to watch the action.

Spoolman

So if you want to beat em, ya gotta join em, and being manual makes the time even more credible.

I need quiet a few things to go right, but the wheels are in motion.

Please Add myself, Kevin Wyhoon as a racer and Melissa Debnam as a spectator.

Although it does depend on a few things like Finding a tow vehicle and a trailer.


Cheers....Kev

PM me your last name.

It’s best if everyone who joins the list from now, PM's there real name as this stops others from turning up and using your name to gain infield entry.
