Deluxe,

Whats the spectator entry fee's?

Mate I can't remember of hand what it was last round, but it could be $10, I'd say worst case $20!

Nick, sounds like a plan mate, I wouldn't give up a interstate trip tho, thats for sure!

[pkblade]

Provided a mate doesn't have his b'day that wkend I should be there.

How's the season been for the Celica so far? & what happened to race 4 at Sandown last month?

Yeh the season has been going good and bad.......

We've rebuilt the engine, turbo and diff! Gearbox to go........ :laughing-smiley-014:

Yeh race 4 at Sandown we didn't start, we blew the diff on the last lap of race 3 and limped it over the line!

Tony blew his PPG box in race 4 also, so we were on the trailor early and ready for a drive back to SA!

We've had quite a few things we've needed to iron out over this year, as it's a build up from scratch! We've run Karts for 5+ years and was now the time to build the car. She should be alot better this round as we have now taken out the bump stops(dickheads for not remembering) put the flares on and widen the track by 20mm a corner. We still need to put a boot spoiler on as going thru the kink out the back of Mallala at 200+kmh in a 80's Celica can be a bit scetchy.

I'm slowly getting more involved with the Intermarque boys both the series and a few of the teams. However the bank balance doesn't help with all the rounds on the Eastern Seaboard. So more than likely out at Mallala instead and

Yeh tell me about it, I help out 2 mates, 1 in IPRA at a state level + interstate once a year! and my other mate runs a Saloon Car at national level, so that sees me heading east for those rounds, ALOT of fun the old race weekends! Havn't seen much of the AMRS rounds as the Saloons are following The Nationals series!

[Whiplash]

ok, the salons are always a good series to be involved with, most of the guys are great. Thankfully my mates run a few Porsches between them so there is always work to be done, and when they aren't racing they are the ones running the series so they have said they would like some help to do paperwork, tyre allocation ect. But as you would know time and money aren't the easiest things to arrange. Especially money -- i have had my car for nearly 3 years now and its still stock !!!!

Winton should be a good weekend for us at the IM series. 1 hour race a heap of competitors lined up. Including Teddys 360NGT, John's Aston martin, Ac Cobras, the Maserati Grandsports and the usual gaggle of Porsches. Hoping to have a 34GTR and a few Vipers up fighting with the Euro stuff aswell.

[Deluxe]

Anyone coming out for a geez??

[Whiplash]

Should be out there Sunday , I'll try and drop by the garage

[Deluxe]

Nick, There is only racing on Saturday, As its a day/night (twilight races) We will have more races later in the day as we have lights, as aposed to Formula Vees and Fords!!

[Whiplash]

AHAHAH Who was that? Mark, Wombat or Neame? Yeh i saw on the entry list that Nick was running the Formula Ford, They must be blowing out the cobwebs of their own FF!!

Yeh if you look at the Mallala website i think they have sprints on Sunday or something! And ours is on the Sat day/evening.

[scandyflick]

i reckon ive got the day off, might come down and have a look.

[Whiplash]

Nah his name is Chris - he is a friend of the family that travels around with the crew and works on the cars. Nick is now running BRM, he should be driving the F3000 as well as Samantha Reeds parents have lodged a complaint that he drove it at an earlier test day and isn't competing in the State series.

Ahhh ok then, Can't say i know Chris, I only know Nick, Mark, Neame, Wombat pretty well as we raced Karts with them.

So what Nick doesn't run under Tom Walkinshaw(spelling) anymore? or is that just for the National rounds?? And State rounds will be BRM??

Did you hear Nick got to drive Tanders V8 around Phillip Island the bastard!! I think he might head to F3 next year and be apart of the Tandersport crew! well that was the latest i heard!

Yeh Sam Reed is ok, Good to see some half decent looking birds out there in a race suit........lol

from what i hear he may be racing the BRM from now on ( i only hear bits and pieces through my mate), although i heard that he will be going overseas with ol Tom for a Formula ford festival (UK i think not 100%)

yeah nothing wrong with that just have to look at maserati's driver over in the uk Jodie Kidd mmmmmm Super Model, Pro Golfer & Factory Maserati Driver what more could you want

I'mm still pissed i couldn't organize the time off work to go to Melbourne for the AMRS round this weekend. Mallala will be cheaper though
