Its the worst track in the country and only consists of 4 right handers and 2 lefts, with some bumps that will throw the car off line at a drop of a hat.I really wish the plans to build a F1 approved circuit in the cane fields near Yatala had come to fruition. QR is great as a club circuit track but needs a bit of lovin to deserve the V8's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the noise that comes out of the place is unreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to think him and Richards have gone dirt bike riding together today. Might be a quiet ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a deaset Kiwi whinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
