GATTON SPRINTS

Post by OLD FART »

The 2010 event is on again on the 20/21 March and am looking forward to my first event for more than a year with the twin cam .I don't expect to be at the pointy end of class H with 7 entries as I will be a bit rusty as well as older :(
Dave is entered in the widey with a recently fitted GT3076 Turbo as an invited driver but not competing 4 awards but I'm sure that we will be keeping a close eye on each others times
They have reversed the track so it will be interesting to see how times differ in the reverse direction with one less chicane

Hoping for a dry weekend for the first sprint of the year but not looking good due to the cyclone heading our way.
Pit/parking area will be boggy :(
