manic35 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Great work Gazza, bring on Round 6 although I think I've used up all of my luck in the last 2 rounds! So are they the marshalling girls for Round 6???

Ben_M Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Good luck with it Gazza. I hope my BMW is nicer to you than my celica last year. If you get a second could you check that the pod screws on my BMW are tight. I forgot to put markings on the pod and I noticed that it was a little loose at Mels, that would be great. If those marshals need a massage after a hard long tiring day in the shed just give me a call, im only 5hrs away.

gazza Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Round 6 has been run and won The very humid and sticky conditions made for an enjoyable days racing A big thank you has to go out to Craig (teamredracing) and his two boys for helping out There was a good mixture of cars this year, and as usual half the field opted for "bigger is better" in the engine department Some of the action ..... The hairpin caused the usually problems We could tell who was the only kiwi in the field straight away The sign summed up the luck of most of the field What happened to the 1.5mil clearance ? Final results Congrats to BRK12345 and the Alpine Absolute pleasure to drive Tazracers crown after it gave up after 5 laps Clearance on Smallnails Porsche before the start .... the block on the right is 1.5mil Eno's Stratos went well but the rear end is getting noisier Quote Quickly read this post before it is deleted or i turn grey again Gary http://www.facebook.com/Rallyproxy2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ember Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Thanks Gazza. You'd better be enjoying a comfy chair and a shandy or two by now Sir. Thanks for taking our toys for a spin. Thanks also to TeamRed and the Junior Reds (are they even old enough to remember 1974?) Congratulations BRK, Stig and Tore. Nice photo of the little buzzbox. Shame it looks like it's going backwards. Then again, might've been better if it was. Quote Computers. They'll never catch on.

Ontheflipside Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) I knew I should have been there to marshal the Duckless Healey. Lap times were not too bad Congratulations BRK, Stig and Tore. Well done Gaz and the "Team Red" for the marathon.

triggy Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Yep,thanks Gazza, Craig and the boys for making this round happen.It wouldn't happen without you! Great action shots too 10/10 to he paparazzi! Well done Chris, Stig and Tore for your podium results. And while I have the opportunity, and despite the fact that I hosted a round, I would like to applaud and congratulate all the hosts so far for making this series happen in a quick and timely manner. It keeps all participants interested, regardless of their placings,and is probably one of the main reasons why this event has to cap it's entrants at 30, when rally cars aren't amongst the main stream class for most clubs around Australia. Well done! Quote * Avatar used with permission Normal people worry me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalbfellp Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Thanks to Gazza,Teamred and the boys for a great effort in running this round so quickly.I know hot hot it gets in the sheds, our round last year was run in 36 degree heat! Great pics,thank you very much. I don't know why "nails car is now lacking clearance,although my notes do mention "only Just". Under the clearance check. Could the braids have now flattened? I think this car was running as a tripod with the front wheels off the ground. Tazracer will have to try and send some gears on to Obsidth for the next round. Brian PM me for address!
