    I'm pretty sure that just last night's rain was 7.5mL's here at Westbrook, which is practically around the corner from the track. But Yeah, It was pretty heavy when I woke up this morning, so I'm not sure what damage has been done.

    But still come up guys. It'll be a good day of racing. Oh and bring a towel...

    Hi guy,

    Yep, we are sorry to inform you all that the race is off!!!
    There has been a lot of rain in South East QLD over night and there is one big rain cloud about to hit the track.
    The new date will be set in a day or two.

    Sorry to everyone for the postponement.

    Hi everyone,
    just been out to the track and it's in prime condition. All us guys and girls that travelled the 7 hours from rockhampton are still keen to ride and there's already a few other locals out there, so if anyone else is keen it'll be good to see yas out there.

    Cheers
