    Symmons can be a bit boring, but it is actually hard work . A difficult track to find those extra tenths. Just after the start line there is a really slow chicane, about 30-40kmh, then a straight with a hairpin at the end . 250kph down to 30kph, then another straight with a kink where the brave can nearly hold it pinned at 250kph then a sort of double apex entering about 80kph. 180kph over the finish line and brake hard into the lefty that feeds the chicane, all in 60 - 56 seconds. 600's can still be in the mix due to being able to get on the gas and maybe brake that little bit better than the litre bikes. Facilities are pretty good as it has been upgraded to host the V8 Supercars.
