I'm going to take the Group C hatch to Tassie to run at this event.

Bloody expensive trip! Try $1,900 for the return trip on the Spirit of Tasmania for my wife and I and the race car and trailer, plus airfares for the pit crew and accommodation for all 4 of us for 3 nights plus fuel for the drive from Sydney plus we will be doing 5 races! $5,000 if nothing goes wrong!!!!!!! The good part is Motorsport Tasmanis are giving us $700 in travel money and not charging an entry fee.

I wouldn't miss it.

Yellow.
