Race Director's Notes: Unlike the last event, we'll be sharing the track again with a full slate of support races. For those of you wondering why it still took all day to run the three races last time, suffice to say that the debris field left over from the seventeen cars edminus1 wrote off in pre-event practice proved to be quite the challenge to fully clean up, as bits of broken glass, shattered plastic, pieces of brake rotor, and all sorts of other car parts kept finding their way onto the racing surface. In order to promote the fairest of racing, the downtime was required so that track maintenance could clean as needed. By the way, if anyone is in need of a spare shift linkage for their car, let me know. Track maintenance found one in nearly pristine condition, buried in the tire wall off the end of turn one. You may need to first extract it from the tires into which it was impaled before it might be of much use, so be forewarned.

But I digress. Round 3's slate of support races includes the first appearance of the Brazillian Mediocre Inline 4 Series (kind of a cross between Aussie Super-V8s and World Touring Cars, just on a lower budget), the Toyota SFR Junior series (Toyota SFR Racing Concept cars with a restrictor plate), an FR-S/BRZ/86 series we've not seen before, and our old favorites, the Touring Car Masters.

• Practice: 6:20am
• Qualifying: 7:00am
