Leburn Sprints

Post by dougie »

8) I've done it again.
The Rath Jupiter E1SA431R is entered for the Leburn Sprint.
Leburn was the site of the Australian G.P. in 1949 when thousands of people turned up to an old RAAF air field to witness the first AGP since the war.The spectators completley overwhelmed the town and the organizers.
The sprint is a single car 1KM run through the town,with the start outside the pub.I think I've been there about 10 times and scored a few trophys,the first 3 events were in my old MK 2 Sprite ,but the Jupiter is more fun.
We are driven mad by spectators looking at the Jup in the pits and wanting to talk.
Brian Holmes and Barry Houston usually bring their cars and offer support.
