      Hi! Holger,              On 27/10/14 09:34, you wrote:               HG> Sure was but there was no tomorrow because they did run all 102 laps        HG> including driver changes as one race AFAIK.              I found the information that's confused both of us; the best place turned out       to be the Wikipedia: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_Coast_600).              When you get connected to the 'net 24/7 you'll get to like the Wiki, and       Google. :)               HG> Well, that was what I knew until you wrote about 'second half'.        HG> Right now I checked the EPG and saw that tomorrow (tuesday) Motors TV        HG> will replay races 1 and 2. Until now I have been satisfied with 'Rd 12'.              It turns out that there's 2x 102 lap race days, counted at 300kms each even       though the track is 2.96kms, So, a total of 204 laps gives us the 600kms.        Ooh, that's slightly more but it is called the 600 after all.               HG> This morning they have again shown the Quit Targa West and presently        HG> they show the Otago International Rally which I suppose also is run in        HG> Australia.              The Otago rally carnival is run in Dunedin New Zealand (www.otagorally.net/).        The name sounded South African or Japanese to me.              That Quit Targa rally looks real interesting! The first bitumen rally that       I've seen that has an actual 'speed bump' hazard! (www.targawest.com.au/). I       played a video on YouTube from 2011. Whee!               HG> Have a nice 'noon',              Thanks. Yep, there was one. 8-)              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:17.0) Gecko/20130330 Thunderbird/17.0.5        * Origin: Paul's Puppy 4.2.1 multiuser vBox - M'boro, Qld, OZ (3:640/1384)    |
