A quick look at google maps in this area shows a number of tight twisty roads of about 40kms in length, so they are a bit longer than a sprint.

You are correct, I haven't driven in any of these events as yet, dipping my toe in club events, and SES, which are only sprints, but you have to start somewhere, and our goal, is to run in these longer type of events, if they are still around in a few years, next year its in the plan to run in the event held in Bunbury, and the Shannons classic car rally, and progress from there.

I do, with some mates, run a loop every couple of months in this area, and while you have to remember, the route is a public road, from home to Australind and back, with a stop for lunch and smoke, sees us home late afternoon, and 370km.

Not all of that would be available, but there are also roads off this that would also be suitable, and not all TW legs are 20+kms.

Straight roads are for fast cars, twisty roads are for fast drivers. I have or am neither.
