Yeah I've been there. Not raced it, but my old man has. Its 'tight' apparently... he didn't get past 3rd gear.

Reminds me of the mini autumn ring.
A stoke of luck or a gift from god?
The hand of fate or devil claws?

It's more of a driver training facility than a race track. Not sure what the cost is, but you're better off doing track days at Wakefield Park, at least you'll get into 4th :lol:

From the website, $100 for track day plus $20 license. It's a tad nearer from city.
Lol. Other than the freezing morning and distance from home, I love Wakefield.

Yeah, done marulan a couple of times.

Like the other say, its tight, but a fun course.

I found in my auto that the bottom hairpin doesnt suit the FTO box. You come out too slow in 2nd gear to get any power down, yet way to fast for 1st.

You can do the whole track in 2nd. You're almost red-lining by the end of the straight, but it makes a sweet sound!

It would be more fun in a manual.
