This came up this morning on my usual email discussions with a few friends...

Now see i thought it was up for sale 12-18months ago?

I couldv'e sworn it was sold, and this would mean the new owners are selling...

Of course this all could be wrong as im a bit vauge on it all :cool:

  • 2 weeks later...

Hopefully someone with a lot of money and passion buys it because it wouldn't take that much to make it much better.

It is also not at the mercy of having ever expanding residential areas complaining like Calder has.

Not that harder day trip for much of Melbourne, very easy for us here in Bendigo and many other regional towns in the area.

Little bit of a freshen up and some promotion of off-street racing would do the place a lot of good.

Last i heard Russell is going through divorce and has to sell it..

Doubt he will be giving it away cheap considering it's costing us close to 30k including insurance for the weekend..

$30k for two days?

damn WSID is cheaper (for a club event)

I love heathcote though (it's like going back in time about -30 years) lots of unregulated fun. At least not over-regulated anyway. The track has been for sale for years hasn't it?

Yeah it would of been easier to take over a test and tune like we did last time.. lol

He also wants a percentage of the money made from spectator entry aswell.. :)

But being the first nationals we don't know how many will be tuning up and we have to put up the sponsors banners..

The track has been forsale for ages but it's only been in the last 6 months that he really wants to sell it.

Not much we can do about it though, most of the guys don't want cages in their street cars and we need the numbers so heathcote it is..

    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear! Stock quantities: NA1 Honda NSX - 1 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1990-na1-honda-nsx 1973 Toyota Celica LB 2000GT - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1973-toyota-celica-lb-2000gt 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sport - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1968-mazda-cosmo-sport 1970 KPGC10 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1970-kpgc10-nissan-skyline-2000gt-r
    • When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
