Glenn, If you haven't already done so, I can highly recommend that you read a copy of Andy Beyer's book "Beyer On Speed', in which he details, among other things, his experiences of Australian racing during his odyssey down here a few years ago. A very interesting read and might just help you understand Australian racing a little more. |
