Q's for the Dutton Boys.

[Snowman]

I know a few of you have done the Dutton NSW before and a few more are going this year. I have a couple of quick questions I'd like answered if possible.

They mostly have to do with eligibility of entry. According to the sup regs Eligible Entries must "meet the RTA requirements of the state in which the car is registered"

Im not sure if NSW is the same as us but this means aftermarket turbo's, aftermarket ECU's, actually it seems just about everything aftermarket is illegal - including things like bonnet pins, carbon bonnets, etc. So I guess Im curious as to what level of scrutineering goes on, or to what extent they allow modifications that may not meet RTA requirements. Or do you pretty much have to compete in a stock car?

lol

just turn up in what ya drive

need to be street legal so you can drive between events

last year there was probably about 5 standard cars out of 50

pete

[Snowman]

how many had high mounts? or is that pushing it? lol

[Duncan]

so why the hell did we have one of the standard ones....d'oh

Snowman *anything* goes...don't worry You just need road rego.

They mention in the supp regs an exhaust limit but they admitted last year they didn't have a tester We're considering the side pipe for this year....

Are you entering?

BTW, only 8 weeks to go better start getting organised....

[Snowman]

Yeah Im entering but right now my car is reasonably stock and thats about to change. I was going to upgrade to some low mounts (was thinking GReddy T517Z twins) but a few of the guys down here are doing some great things with big single top mounts on track / circuit cars. So I know I could get away with a modded low mount set-up BUT if I can get away with a nice big high-mount single.......
