Good luck to all that have entered the race at Sealake, 90 plus cars is a great turn out to a race held on the same weekend as a national round. Looks like a few big names are turning out there to, the likes of Glenn Owen,Bob Strawbridge, Kieran Kelly, Luke Erceg, David Simpson and Jamie Robinson.
I am really looking forward to seeing the two Chenowth's run, and Glenn Owen as well. With his new engine, hopefully he gets some reliability. if conditions are good and his car holds together I think he would pull off record lap times.
Looking at the weather forecast, there is supposed to be a few showers on Saturday and Sunday. They have had some showers up that way over the past week, not sure exactly how much though.
I will certainly try to do some updates.... so long as I stay out of the pub!
Edit: Looks like they have had around 20mm since Monday, so it will be a little damp up there. Hopefully they won't have too much more and the track should be in really good condition.

Jones, the Chenowth would have loved the track, perfect track for your car. And a very healthy Prolite field as well.
As was mentioned earlei, a field of 90-odd cars is very very good, especially when you consider that Finke is on the same weekend.
It would be great if somehow it could be worked out so that these two great events weren't on the same weekend and could both be National events. However, I can see the reasons why neither can be rescheduled, so I guess we just have to live with it.
Thanks Sean, I have never raced sea-lake, but would love to.....I really liked the atmosphere at donald, and I realise that a lot of the same people are involved in both events. It is interesting to note that both sea-lake and finke have 'healthy' pro-lite entries.........maybe the new classes are not as bad as some thought?
Very wet in Sea Lake..... no prologue will be run due to the conditions. There will be a meeting later this afternoon to see if the event goes ahead tomorrow or not, though even if it does go ahead it may be in the form of a point to point race due to the track conditions. Not looking very promising for any running at all over the weeekend....
Glen Owen won't be running due to some issues with his car during the week.
