So big single turbo, E85, free computers, etc etc etc is "stock" is it? You're allowed all of that and more in Early Modern. So go and have a crack and don't let fear hold you back.

New regs have come out in the last few days. EM is only up to 2002 again and no more single turbos for twin systems. E85 stays though. High country will be the last event run under the current ones.

Last chance to beat me at high country Fatz

Pretty sure you can still do the twin to single conversion.

[Marlin]

Have you read the rules Bazil? F-all has changed for EM and you can definately still have big singles for both GTR and RX7......

M26. Turbo Chargers

Turbo chargers from succeeding models may be used up to the Early Modern cut-off date of 31 December

2006. Housings must be the original and remain identifiable as such. Internal components and dimensions

may be modified.

sounds like bigger turbos in stock houssings

eg all though dudes running dash 5s dont have to change their shit even though they were production spec previously?

[Marlin]

You are reading the regs for MODERN. You need to read the regs for Early Modern

For some reason it's not letting me copy/paste it.

Refer page 30, Section M9 Twin Turbo Systems.

Specifically lists 32/33/34 GTR and '92 - '02 RX7's.

Your reading the 2015 regs, not the 2016+

That whole section is now gone. As Ben said read M9 in the new rules

Balls that does seem like my car can enter in 2016

I’ll co drive for you Pete- my life insurance is paid up & valid for rallies (suckers!)

[Marlin]

Good innit! Now, don't Fawk around Fatz, take it up to Baz in The Battle of the Boats!

[sav man]

Got your entry in yet Ben?

That would make for a crazy afterparty Kel!

[Marlin]

I'm ummming and ahhhhing

You?

[sav man]

yeah, just waiting for the last day of launch pricing

[Marlin]

Excellent.

I'm a bit all over the shop with far too many projects going on. If I decide to go I'd be disappointed if I could spend the time to do it justice in the leadup. Hence I'm even considering the idea of leasing a car instead of readying my own (which just sits in the garage these days).

Harsh but fair. The last one wasn't my fault though

You?

Is that your way of saying you are waiting for another 0 car drive?

[Snowman]

Slightly OT - are you doing Sport GT @ Phillip Island again Ben?

I entered it this week.

Not at all mate

It's been too long since I competed and I'd dearly love to return! I'd need to convince Timmay to sit beside me again if I was to complete the dream
