Bugger me the best thing is for fact none run a huge budget and the best is the crew is family ages vary about 14 months to plus my dad 76

as I said in the other thread, hillclimbs are different. They've always been about the F.Libre open wheelers and its great seeing a bunch of them going head to head on a level playing field.

how many people got 2nd outright??? "K got second outright... to give me 2nd outright for the weekend..."

2nd outright is different from 2nd in class. hth

Bout time for you to get back to the track - and my mega buck taxi was on its last outing for us as a couple to prove itself - lol (I thought the skyline was a pain in the credit card) Don't get a used taxi!!

Our plan - I will be running the taxi in Sports Sedan and you and Karen can share the skyline battle and hopefully with a few others from SAU?

PS SAU Merry Xmas and Happy New Year

Cheers

What areas of the Falcon chew the money? Curious, as I woudl have thought they would be reasonably economical to run given their turn of speed

Hi Roy

3000km engine service must replace roller lifters, valve springs and retainers - basic head service costs around $4,500 - $5K

At the same time, set of brake rotors and pads - $4,500

Gearbox service and re-race diff also at 3000km's - $1500

6000km service is all of above plus set of pistons, rod bolts, stud kits, gaskets etc - $5k

When required AP carbon clutch - $11K, dry sump pump, crack testing -spindles etc, new wheel nuts every twelve months, along with in tank lift pumps. Every two years recharge fire bomb, replace all wheel bearings.

Thats the basics anyway Roy
