Or here is a map which gives you general directions on how to get there.
In regards to Mini racing here are the following rules which were current the last time I raced there as posted in Ben's thread.
Tamiya M01, M03, M03L (which is the BMW Mini) chassis only. Tamiya hop up parts only and the only other engine you are allowed to use apart from the standard 540 is the Tamiya Sport Tuned 540 (black motor). You also must run standard Tamiya gearing and no eagle gear sets are permitted. HPI tyres can be used in place of Tamiya tyres.
Any radio control system can be used such as a stick or wheel radio system. Just ensure that your radio runs on the 27MHz, 29MHz or 40MHz system and the modulation can be AM, FM or PCM.
36MHz cannot be used in radio control cars as this frequency is used for R/C aircraft only.
All other frequencies such as 72MHz (USA) and so on are Extremely Illegal to use in Australia and carry severe fines and possible jail term if caught. So please ensure your radio is using a legal frequency system for Australia otherwise it will just cause you grief on the day.
If you have any further questions let me know
.
Maybe we can organize a group of Mini and R/C Mini owners to attend one weekend
?
