    I'm in, but we need to restructure from lasttime...there wasn't enough track time! And maybe some course-selection so we're not dealing with the tree/evil curbs?

    I dunno, I think the only way to get more track time would be to run less numbers and pay more - the guys did a good job of keeping everything moving, there was pretty much a car on the course at all times.

    I think another event like this will finish off my tyres, will think on whether I can afford new ones and let you know

    Morning all,

    I will be setting up the courses to avoid high speeds in the curvy bit and running towards the tree.

    In order to get more track time, we will likely run two short courses and then one longer course. With three runs at each. (possibly only two runs at the longer course depending on how we're progressing through)

    Rudi, that sounds like a better plan. 3 laps FTW...and no more scary tree! If we wanted to use the back straight/last sections, we could look at putting in a chicane with cones?

    Could easily keep those sections if we only went through them 'backwards', ie leaving from the carpark towards the hairpin but not coming back through that way. That way no high speed run into scary tree and much lower speeds through the area with evil curbs.

    Yup that's the plan Robin/Aaron.

    Hope everyone has a good memory for the shorter courses
