Colombo Road Race

[virensti]

Not sure about how the viewing areas will be... But 20 laps of the Lamborghini's and Porsche's will probably go by pretty quick..

[Gyiman]

Crap I'll be at a wedding too, no where near the races

[virensti]

Exactly 1 month More! Fingers crossed for a fantastic 2 nights of speed.

no chance, you can barely see the road with all the trees covering it.

Aye, nothing like the wind and dust in your face and the antilag pounding your eardrums

Wouldn't getting in to the Galadari car park be a problem on that day ? and what about the going away car.

[Komisiripala]

@carbonb4: make sure its got 600+ horses and a midmounted engine and a huge GT spoiler. never mind the frills and flowers... will be the best going-away ever!!

going to be Anti Clockwise mate, start/finish will be in front of Galadari..

Also heard that since the GT-3 and GT-4 cars are under FIA Homologation, the track will have to be approved by FIA inspectors before they are allowed to run.

So fingers crossed for that as well.

This is going to be very tough. Check the FIA track selection regulation document

doesn't work for me either machan, I'm on chrome though

old parliment you'll be able to see the final turn before the start finish, and the stretch from intercon.. another good place might be from near hsbc head office, but I dunno if that stretch will be used as the pits/paddocks

Edit.

Okay I just copy pasted the link on google and its fine now

Road resurfacing is going along, hope the weather will improve in evenings, and still no idea if the GT-3 and GT-4 Cars are being allowed to run..

Didn't see that one, well we'll just have to have our fingers crossed for the weather and the GT cars..

Any news on our local guys in the SL-GT & SLH events?

Will the usual crowd be running? AL guys? I'm sure DD and Darin will be running?

Yes saw that, kind of the same thing they put up for the Nawam Perehera. Maybe for the VVIPs.

A good place to watch would be on top of the Hilton bridge...
