    I love Lakeside it's a lot of fun but the Loop scares the hell out of me in a open car and the drop off on the exit means kissing the Armco if you do fall off.

    One of my mates dropped the RH front lower ball joint going into Hungry at our nationals back in 2013 which caused a certain amount of clenching in the trouser region.

    What model Sierra have you got Swanny ?

    Very nice.

    I was amused at the drivers briefing where they put up the slides with Xs marking the accident black spots, there's no circuit left.

    The last car fatality there that I am aware of was a guy going off the top of the loop and downhill into the tyre wall breaking his neck, no HANS.

    I had a decent off coming out of T2 at Eastern Creek in August last year when I ran out of talent, thankfully the HANS did its job

    The tools of trade
