Have to agree with Stephen here too Alan, it really is a well made
track and just oozes nostalgia...
We actually held a F1 ("yes" F1 <G>) event in the GMSS at this track on
Saturday evening and had a 20 driver turn-out for the event..
I won't tell you who won, but it was a standard Ozzie Repco that
crossed the line in P1 at the end of the day... :)

Great fun on a great track.

Cheers,
Ron
