That corner reminds me of the similar (but narrower) one on a track in Australia - that really narrow track in QLD or somewhere?

Went to Hampton Downs Tuesday as well - what a great day, the track is awesome with the changes in elevation, blind corners and other challenges. Got to run the ST165 around for a couple of sessions and then went for a ride with Simon in the MR2 what a laugh - Thanks Simon.

We went on sunday for a track day run by the honda riders club, this is my girlfriend riding her ninja on a track for the first time. The track looks awesome, I can't wait to drive it.
When in doubt, down and out.
