Dry Lakes Racers Australia

Cancelled my holidays.....going back to work.

A big thank you to all involved in the lake inspections from the Ratmuller team. I would like to offer to donate some money to all those involved in the lake inspections, to help cover any costs incurred, fuel etc., as I know it is not a 5 minute journey to inspect the lake.

IMO it won't work. The straights are too short. Compare the track to the 1/4 mile strip in the picture.
Most of our cars are setup for going in a straight line, not for high speed cornering.

Not trying to sound dumb here......but where is this offline members forum? I can't find it.
