Millions of dollars invested in the race and Bathurst Council can't organise a road surface that is up to standard. It's a typical council job. The whole race day has been turned into a circus and it's totally unacceptable. The upside is the cars should be band new for the restart.

It's a new rule
Stop for half time and when they re start  they go the  other way.  That should keep bird happy

They were saying yesterday that they have resurfaced Phillip Island. Race committee said to contractor that they had to lay the course as one strip which meant doubling their machine size. Then they went to Melbourne council and had a road resurfaced with the same product in a heavy traffic area in town and monitored  how it withstood the use. Don't think Bathurst Council did that.

Biggest thing is the time factor before racing begins on the new track surface ..it probably should have been resurfaced just after the race last year so as it could cure and harden up properly ..
