Most years you get those awesome crisp clear mornings with no clouds and sunshine but usually the temp still hovers around the 15-20 degree mark. Last year was the first time in ages that it had rained and you could tell by the amount of under prepared people that it was totally out of the blue.

Nah, the best part was watching all those concourse style cars tippy toeing through the mud in the car park.

I'll likely be there helping out a guy running a formula 2 cheetah open wheeler powered by a corolla 3k with twin 45 webbers.

there was great racing today at winton
perfect sunny weather
silly rabbits brother phil had a some what uneventful day in his mini
he started of like this
then he met this
and this
resulting in this
the whole thing was started by a couple of cars spinning in oil most probably dumped by this
in the previous race , the bugatti was towed back to the pits with a hole punched through the bonnet
by something , probably a piston
"phil" luckily ,was not hurt and the other mini had rolled over
silly rabbit, may be able to tell us what happened later
apart from that it was a fantastic day , my brother in law got me a photographers pass so i could wander any where
although i got warned about going in to the ladies toilet
while i was wandering around i saw this lovely corolla
there where lots of great cars to admire
i will take some more piccys tomorrow
