I'm still on holidays - but I'm back this weekend and will have to start getting myself organised for TWP straight away. I haven't orangised anything really yet - no idea when I'm going, how I'm going or even if my car is working yet.

But I'm feeling fresh and revived and I damn excited to be getting back into it. Bring on the MX5's!

I know you're all already fearing the 125kW of mighty MX5 powah!

you don't drive past any hair dressers or coffee shop on the TWP corse do you, cause it's really going to effect your stage times if you do

.... and now back on topic (if you call MX5 bashing that)

at least I'll be lookin good and well refreshed if that's the case :rant:

best news I've seen in Tarmac Rallying in ages!

--------------------

Dear Targa Wrest Point Competitor,

Just so you have a heads up on what we will be targeting in terms of eligibility, I would like to advise you of the following:

1. Random checks of engine stroke will be carried out pre event and all place getters post event

2. Fuel will be tested pre event, out on the course and all place getters post event

3. Exhaust sizes will be checked thoroughly pre event and all place getters post event – Early Modern and Modern SS & LMS exhaust tolerance is 15% not 10% as listed in the Supplementary Regulations.

4. Fuel Injectors on Showroom and Modern SS vehicles will be checked thoroughly pre event and all place getters post event

Showroom vehicles will be particularly targeted in all areas listed above.

Whilst we want everyone to enjoy our events, we must also ensure that the rules of the game are being followed to create a fair environment for every competitor.

See you all soon

Mark Perry

Event Director

I'm going to be interested to see how this runs in Tassie this year! He gets to run it as M2 (LMS) regs as well so it will be interesting to see just how well it performs. If you don't know who it belongs to the plates help give it away! *Hint - he used to drive a Black Porka...fast :P

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
