3rd run was take a little carefully by most due to an EVO spilling I think gearbox oil all over the track on the long sweeping right hander just after the start.
Testing/setup all done for us, next official outing will hopefully be Targa West 2016 :-)

I was planning on competing in one of the final rounds for this season.

I have never raced a Mcrae sprint before.

Do I need a light bar or spotties to come down and give it a go for my first time? Is it batshit dangerous at night with standard high beams out there, or only if you are pushing really hard?

Don't want to waste time and money and then decide this really isn't for me.

just go down and have a go, there's a Holden Crewman doing laps..

Only dangerous if you're pushing hard, plenty of stock headlights.

Awesome, cheers Burke.

How do I go about finding a co-driver for the night?
