Thank you? Now a massive, massive weekend ahead and I'll

from Ipswich who love the supercars, they'll be heading to
the Gold Coast this weekend.

everyone everyone saw Baphist. It was one of the most
amazing races we've ever had. Thank you for the rain.

not expecting too much rain I think until Sunday possibly,
but yeah, we want everyone to come down.

It's the Gold Coast.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Five hundred, the boost bo bol Gold Coast five hundred,
and it's our first ever finals event, so it's a
huge week for us. We've had the ten finalists in town,
they've done their media stuff and today it gets a
bit more real because the transporters roll into town to
the fans and then we're on track on Friday.

Speaker 3 (00:50):

People get excited.

They've got the teams that have traveled up for Victoria
and those who traveled from as far ast Ableton and Yatlas,
so you know, a good three meters down the road.
But you know when all those tracks roll through Teder
Avenue in Maine Beach, there's a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Of history there.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
That's where the Indy cars used to come through to
go into pit Land themselves. So the fans line the streets,
they cheer on the transporters. There's something like twenty five
to thirty million dollars worth of gear on those transporters
as they come through town, and it just brings another
level of energy. You know, yesterday we had the ten
finalists on the surface sign with a bit of flames
going on behind them and you know doing a finals
