Default St Ives - Sydney, Australia - oOple

Whilst on holiday we went to visit the awesome St Ives track in North Sydney - awesome friendy atmosphere and I decided to test out the new Sony HS15 action cam.



Thanks to all the guys there for making us welcome.

Awesome video - And, if the video is an accurate representation of the field of cars then sure the TRF201 is much more used than in the Netherlands!

Great stuff Mr and Mrs oOple, hope you're having a ripper tour

love the bonza cheesy soundtrack... nice to see how the racing is done down under, and especially when a club is established that long!

Whats with the BBQ'ing of a buggy though?!

Drove the old track at the '89 Worlds - wonderful to see that rostrum I stood on but the track as changed a bit! Jimmy, Vicky, if you have the same holiday as me, you'll never forget it and may wonder if you want to come home!! Enjoy it all, and thanks for the lovely video to remind me of my time there.

I think it's the buggy someone is referring to that GOT BBQ'ed!

Mrs Oople, what happen to that buggy? Looked like a catastrophic accident?

Lipo blow-up??

I'd be interested to know.
