- The comp will be run in the Back M section, for Pro Class the Sweeper will form part of the course, for Club class the sweeper is not included, further details on the day

More details to follow, but as you can see from the timetable it is very tight and hence why we only have enough time to do a Top 32 in Pro class and only allow passengers for competitors during the practice sessions to reduce any down time.

[KurtHS]

You driving?

[matt99]

Yeah man, giving pro class a crack. Never done a comp at Winton before, about time I did one in the state I live in I suppose, haha.

[KurtHS]

It's the back M's and all that yeah? Pro Class has the sweeper too? How'd ya go on that? Should go pretty good man good luck.



Shoulda sandbagged in street

[willa]

Yeh sorry Matty, I should have done it haha. I'll be spectating, I'll keep an eye out for everyone though!

[matt99]

Yeah the comp is being held in the back M's. For street they dont use the sweeper, but we are in pro. I can do the sweeper, it clutch slips in forth so I just limiter it in third, have to do a bit of a scando as well as my handbrake doesnt work really. Should be fine though.

Why you not driving Willa?

[Panda BVB700]

[willa]

Haha cos I could never get those damn m's linked! It drives me insane! I'm aiming for the second drift attack round later on in the year though! Need more practice!
