    • I don't know.  i was using the harness rule and giving an example of imagining what could happen if a similar rule was applied to cars on a 3 lane highway.  obviously that went straight between your ears and out the other side. drug testing not required for bit of a yarn,like you suggest. For you , instead of a drug test,i would prescribe a lay down and taking of 3  panado,l if you see the galah has replied to one of your posts. 
    • Race Day Track Preparation Process – Mandatory Requirements Clubs should aim to produce a track with a GOOD rating (i.e. a track with good grass coverage and cushion) for the majority of the race meeting. They should however, [do their best to] avoid a track with a GOOD 2 rating at any time during the race meeting). Track Managers will not be criticised if they have prepared a track in line with this Policy, and, due to elements outside of their control (including the weather), the track is rated softer than GOOD at the time of the first race, especially in the warmer months. It is also recognised that the preparation of turf racetracks with more give may lead to an increased level of wear and tear over the course of a racing season.
    • That is a great question . Often causes great angst among drivers , because on the state highways (if they are 100kph) as mostly are around Oz, the passing lanes that come up every 10-20 kms or so are filled with people flooring it to use the lane and get past the grey nomad caravans (that are everywhere) and get some 'Clear Air'.  and they're going 120 kph + to do it and get past em'  .. Is it allowed ?  Seems they allow it ok. does get tight at times as the passing lane draws to an end lol 😁. I am a very safe driver and often have had to speed up in those sort of situations to get past large trucks and that. Have never seen police radar at passing lanes . I think they would rather the overtaking happens there , than in the open sections where idiots pull out to .brave' the on-coming traffic at 120kph lol. 😉  Rightly so too. There's been 1000's of races , and must say I can't remember another one quite like what Harrison did to Blair in this race. Not on in my opinion. and I think the general driving standard is Excellent throughout NZ and Oz and much better (and safer with marker line pegs) which helps drivers No end , in avoiding incidents like this Amberley Race 10 one. 
    • Be lucky if he can achieve 2 out of 5 , main focus will be on 2 which will really put the dagger in the back of the sport. I always finding it amusing how the fools who write these articles and refer to Venue Rationalization as some kind of cost savings for the industry, I've never understood that .
    • No.  But if you decide to pass a logging truck and trailer and it is going 95km/hr in a 100km/hr zone and you are driving a Mercedes AMG model I suggest you click the turbo switch and floor it.  Then when well clear and in front (suggest you don't try and knock the logging trucks wheels out) decelerate using those ABS brakes.  If there is a speed camera its software will be confused that you can go from 95 to 180 and back to 100 in 3 seconds. PS:  If you do get caught dont get @the galah to defend you.
