It would be the weekend before this weekend gone. About 16-17th to avoid the square dancers.

[Doug Gould]

I think Neil might be on his way back still. Next year the 6 hour is a week earlier. I believe the square dancers are always the 3rd week in Oct, therefore we will be the second weekend in Oct 2011 which I think is about the 7th / 8th because next year Oct 1 is a Saturday. But Neil will confirm.

But to stop the incorrect information, I can advice the following, (sorry for not so clear on the weekend).

Giddy up, cant wait!!

[Neil Choi]

Entries are flying in, once all collected, considerations will be made for acceptance by the committee.  In general, all entered are accepted.

All should know in about a week or so time.

Looking like a full field as expected.

Any Alfa club members looking to join a team, get in touch with me and maybe I can assist.

Updates on the event will be done shortly, just too busy.

But all teams entered have been accepted, pretty much full field.

Anyone wanting some practice prior to 6 hr event, MSCA has a sprint at Winton on 25 September.

I am planning to be there, not really driving but officiating.  Might get a drive in if allowed.

Sorry, no updates due to being too busy with work and fixing car.

But all teams who have entered on entry release have been accepted, you know who you are.

Everything is moving ahead in good shape, committee has met regularly.  No real changes to previous events' organization.

The main points are:

Safety:  Flag infringements ie passing under YELLOW and RED, BLACK flag and others, crossing blend line etc, may result in one lap penalty and repeat infringements may result in exclusion.

Team Organization:  car/race number/driver/dorian combination must be exactly as entered as per entry form and entry database.  Any changes without notification or erroneous changes will receive lap penalties.

Scrutineering:  Only one car per team is allowed to be in scrutineering queue, a bright coloured scrutineering card must be attached to windscreen to signify you are eligible for scrutineering.  If caught without scrutineering card in the queue, a significant lap penalty will be imposed on the TEAM, that car will be relegated to scrutineering at a time NOT before 12 noon Saturday.

More will be mentioned in further supp regs and at drivers' briefing.
