Bathurst 12hour 2013
With the Bathurst 12hr turning into the biggest endurance race in Australia, its a great opportunity for like minded sports car fans to meet and greet.
In case people are unaware, if we have more than 6 MR2's enter as a club event, we receive various benifits. The parade lap on the Saturday is what catches my eye.
I tried to put something together without much success a few years ago, but decided to put it out there again to see if there are enough people interested in meeting up for the 2013 race.
I do go there every year with accomodation organised and few of the Victorian owners also make the effort to come up, so there is potential to build on this, boost the numbers and take advantage of the Club benifits on offer.
Cheers

I've been to this for the last two years and thought it was a fantastic weekend. For anyone interested, here's a link to check out the entry list for the 2013 event: http://www.bathurst12hour...ith-40-cars-confirmed/ Steve, unfortunately I will not be able attend this year, but I believe that at least 3 other people are coming from the Vic MR2 Club at this stage. I am not sure if they are on the forum, but I will certainly tell them to check out your post.

So how many MR2's are there? Can we make the numbers to do the parade lap? I will tow mine up to make the numbers as the reliability issue will be sorted in a week or two.

What a fantastic weekend of racing. It was the best enduro I have experienced outside of LeMans 24hr in 2004. Also great to catch up with the Victorian guys even though it was brief. It would have been great to chat more, but my crew were under the weather and keen to get some sleep before the race the following morning. Here is a clip someone put together of some of the incidents over the weekend. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQyij5sxmec
