Gone Racing

We went to Kilarnay race circuit again today to see the Wes Bank V8 Super Series which looked on paper to be a bit more serious racing than last time we went. The place was about 10 times busier than it was last time which had it's downsides. It turns out that in the same way as holidays makers mark their 'teritory' with towels, race goers mark their spot with a flaming BBQ, a barricade of 4X4's and intricate system of fences made up from red and white hazard tape. Dare to cross the tape and you're in serious trouble...serious.

We did manage to find a 'non-marked' teritory but it took some walking - safe to say that's why no-one could be bothered lugging their BBQ's, overweight kids and beer that far.

Here's the view. Aparently one of the top guys racing the super bikes has only one eye. Tough as hell.
