    TB honest ,its day are numbered due to poor numbers at the Horse racing events (ordinary Group one races) mainly mid-week racing , car racing apart from one or two rounds of the Stupid cars little else .

    At an annual loss of 5 million P/A why would MRC keep it going when Caulfield race track has quality Group one races and attendances .

    Mechanics tuning the car by "feel". This guy was fantastic. Before he started, he welded a bung onto the exhaust so he could monitor Lambda.

    I'm trying to eliminate all the variables, to give myself the best shot at winning - I'm not going down there for a haircut. But I keep hitting road blocks, like my navigator living in a Covid hot spot (although I'm certain he's been living in his holiday house this whole time), and last night, finding a stripped thread on the suspension mounting - it never effing ends...
