Sorry to bomb the list with a non Alpine message but so many of you
folks around the world are into Racing I though I'd remind you that this
Sunday 19th is the annual 1000 km race at Bathurst in Australia. 55
cars (Sedans with 600+ bhp 5 litre V8s) will try to complete 161 laps of
the 6.2 km circuit at Mt Panorama. Circuit is truly awesome - rises
(and falls) over 130 metres and has lots of courage-testing sections.
They tell us here it's TV broadcast all round the world so see if you
can't catch some of it. Starts 10 AM Sydney time - about 11 pm Saturday
in UK, 6 pm Saturday in New York and Midday Sunday in NZ.
Hope you can watch and enjoy
Vic Hughes
