As the guys in the office know, behind my desk is a whiteboard with a hand-scribbled sketch of écurieWorld - the pinnacle of my plans for é25 - with a full service members club, hospitality centre and private race track running around the clubhouse.
Well, last week in Sydney I got a taste for what écurieWorld could look like. Courtesy of Luke and Keith from Events O'Neill I was introduced to Mark Wills - owner of The Farm - a 5km private track just 40 mins drive outside Sydney. [Pictured with é25's Tim Bennettt below.]
It's a really fun circuit, with absolutely no run off! And yes, I certainly did not let my horrific jet lag prevent me from burning some rubber. With some adverse cambers, quite a lot of undulation, almost every type of turn and an awesome 5 part chicane - which I was totally pants going through - its a bit like a mini-Norschleife.
Being a private track it is by invitation only, and of course we were there working out some special privileges for écurie25 Australia members - to be honest, its worth flying in just for a day there.
