Hey Russ havn't caught up with you in ages mate how you been going up there in the far north ?. looks like it could be a pretty hairy drive up there mate considering how close some of the scenery (trees) are to the road looked like some nice driving there to mate Sarah must have obviously been pretty onto it with the pace notes hey. Time to swap seats next time hey !.

hi mate, yeah Darwin's good mate, beautiful weather here at the moment so loving that.

yeah sarah was great, she really got the notes out perfect ( didnt get sick either!)

we borrowed notes that ben and tim had written and they were heaps better than our old notes, an made a real difference.

Youll love the weather, for another 2 months. Check out NAMSC, they hold motorkhanas and the Rejex Rally. Goood times! Laurie Feehan is the guy to speak to. I have his number if you want it.

Yeah, great track, had some fun around there in all sorts of toys.

Ill go back for Rejex next year, gonna grab a shitter WRX and have some fun. Took the work hack in it last year, Lib GTB with some mods, came 4th overall, skipped a section for drinking instead. Would have come 3rd otherwise, got rookie award though. Had a fkn sore head the next day, actually had a sore head most of the weekend, fell into the wrong crowd.

    • Yes there is a front and back insertion point on each side, each point is tubed with supports into the car and tied to the cage/ floor mount point
    • Is the jack stand system tied into the cage somehow? Upgrades look goooood 😍
    • Big updates, tons of work and $$$ 
    • it takes so long to get things done but ... they are nearly there and we hitting the track soon again  So - at Perth Festival of Speed the car unfortunately had a decent off, wasnt me driving, wasnt the person drivings fault. Long story short car got sent very fast towards the wall without the control on throttle from the driver input and a disaster was averted but there was damage that needed to be fixed - carbon busted and alot of bent bits The splitter got munched and had to go back to get fixed - took a bit to get it there, fixed and back but got a surprise package when a new double element higher DF splitter came back - nice surprise !  and first person to have one     At a car show I took the car too some punks stole one of my carbon indicator blanks and stomped on the other so had to get a new set of headlight / indicator combo from tops stage so got front fender vents as well to put in the order     While all this was happening the new MCA golds turned up and did some fiddling around with those   Put in the flappy paddle system and clutch lockout wiring/ system   We have also put shorter gearing in top top it out at 300 kmph in 6th gear  where previously I held 5th to 282 at SMP and 277 in Perth   Looking for better control and faster acceleration     I wasnt intending on doing pedal box I was managing with the brake master replacement system I had going on and adjusted std pedals but on applying the clutch switch to the old system we found the *insert technical word here * bar that goes from the pedal to the master was bent about 40 deg and about to snap = lucky find otherwise be a bad bad time - discussion was had about getting a custom bar built to withstand the load but in reality it was time      making any suspension, wheel or anything adjustments to date has been a nightmare - aero off, adjust, check and repeat - time consuming and hard - short of going full airjack system we fashioned some external manual car lifts this will make life a million times easier     All the bent framing, some intercooler pipes and other has been fixed and replaced and after 6 months I finally have the car back at home in my control so its get to work on it, set ride heights, wheel align and will start track testing again soon   So ultimately other than a few flashy bits nothing actually looks likes its been done but in reality alot has. Typical   We'll see how all this goes
