Nice work Paul! Just make sure you don't get your arse out while they are giving us a briefing Donations have been great so far guys! thanks for your support and keep up the good work!

Happy birthday shagger

Yeah - that was my point above......... ahh well, you guys can keep paying out of your arse, it seems it won't change. unless of course you start driving around corners

Finally - hahahah well done.

Obviously they don't see value in what is currently on offer - either it isn't value, or they aren't being shown the value - I think adrian already covered this............ isn't this ANDRA's Job?

what he said. + I have a mate who had a car at their warehouse - didn't have any damage because the warehouse wasn't burnt down - just the shop........He mentioned it sounds a bit dodgy....................... I have my opinions based off some other things though :|

Night before last actually

Once again - ask the rule makers (ANDRA) not me. I think you missed my point. So here it is plain and clear. - Sub 11's = 120mph+ - Old cars were not designed prevent injury or death to its passenger when it hits a wall at 120mph+. Thats for sure. - Seeing many results of crashes with new cars, I don't see many that were designed for 120mph+ impacts with solid walls either albeit possible milder injuries. All of the above facts show that it is ultimately the speed required to run the sub 11 sec pass that dictates the cutoff, not the ET. Not withstanding 4WD cars that can run faster ET's with less mph. /end thread.

Also > 150k to bring to AUS.

A BIG thank you to Adam and GTS-t VSPEC for their donation! Very Generous! Thanks guys!

Hey since you brought up the subject, you should check out Wollongong. I hear it's really nice there!

The questions you posed are all one answer questions#. I am sure there is a list of things you are covered for, but you seem to see ANDRA as the enemy with your reference to Nazi's. How about you actually attempt to contact them instead of knocking them? Going off your above post you haven't even done so. #Well all barring this one which is really a matter of opinion, as the "value" of any thing always is. Again I disagree. Also, your speculation about how they came to the decision of 11 being the limit for a licence acheives nothing. In all reality lets look at this from a common sense perspective. To run 10's you need to be doing what? 120+mph? (my rough guess - happy to be changed) At around 200km/h I would (as I would also hope any other sane person would) want to be as safe as possible, therefore racing at the safest possible track - new car or old. Additionally, one would assume that some form of personal protection cover would be offered. I think it is more than reasonable to be paying whatever is required to get the highest quality of safety along with all the other benifits outlined previously. Can any of you put a value on your life? If any of you suggest lower than what it costs to get a licence + build a racecar............I feel for your family.

or a perfect buying oppurtunity for someone else

And I might have to bring the golf in that case!

You should be closer to 12's than that chris! What tyres?

As a percentage of your total costs I doubt it is a large amount - maybe for other part time racers, but not yourself Paul.

They are all questions to ask the person you are buying the goods/service from. Not a bunch of filthy ricers on a forum

Also - dependant on what that covers, and how much coverage is given, alone, if required would be worth ALOT more than the $$$ you paid to get the licence. I can promise you that.

So maybe some changes to the rules in regards to the change of spec from original would be more suited. I still think it's kinda ok seen as though someone without so much as a drive to the event can take their stock vehicle and run a 9-11sec pass without anymore vehicle safety than comes from factory. Note: "Kinda" in regards to the time being the classifier as it stands now.

Having faster cars standard doesn't mean more experienced or safer drivers automatically.

Trust the man - I fitted those brakes to the rear of the car - lol

Only with a good steerer - Stu only knows how to go straight and then turn around for another go. Duncan, you should put your hand up!

wow - in the drift 31?

No really, sif rub it in!
