I am not sure to be honest. I hadnt planned to, but am curious more than anything to get back to the 'true' AGP circuit.

GTR Magic,
It's a 4 day carnival now and it is a real hoot. For an old SOF like me, the denim is a fantastic distraction. There is a group of us that meet "outside" of the Bartels road/Dequetteville Road corner at 0930 Hrs each day to observe the drivers with "balls" and to sample the ice cold VB!! Mike |

For spectators its fantastic.... you can see the whole thing from just about anywhere. And sort the drivers from the drovers....
I doubt you could bring the main series there, the garages that the lesser teams get stuck in are not large enough for the palm trees |

Never been there but I went to Surfers Paradise many moons ago.
I hope they save Lakeside. ARDC lost Amaroo Pk a few years ago so lets pray.... |

Always liked Amaroo Park. The Appendix J's were great around there

It lagged up from around 1-ish, being very very slow to post, and timing out to the server....

Well good luck with your email thepaw. I sent an email to Mr Shaw about 3 weeks ago trying to register. i have pretty much given up until 2 days ago when he finally replied wanting info from me so I guess i will be still waiting by the end of March at this rate[]

So how do they make this joint pay for itself? There are no annoying popups, a few small ads at the bottom, but hardly enough I would have thought to fund a server farm, keep some software up to it... web space.. domain costs...
Conrod has no external sponsors other than the web host... and thats a love job it seems... Michael Shaw pays for it all himself |
