thats ok, but turn 3 is where its at, best left hander in the land
down the hill wide open, nothing like it.... except when the roo's decide to graze there, as their prone to do 
got some onboard footage of going thru there with a skippy feeding on the edge of the turn.... not cool.Great turn to name after him, that footage from rossie's bike a few years ago is mindblowing, sideways, smoke coming off the tyre, how good was that

I loved watching Stoner punt the Ducati through and out of turn 3, what an awesome sight and what a great rider.

Yer it did... pulled in next lap..... didnt want to tangle with that at high speed.. Hit one out back in QLD as a young fella on a K2 honda... still remember that..
Their not like our resident wombat at broadford, they move a bit quicker.... old wombat's a bit slow, so easy to swing around as he wanders out at pit turn for a look see
