Good luck with it Gazza. I hope my BMW is nicer to you than my celica last year. :rolleyes:

 

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. B)

Some slot (and MTB) vids NOW SHOWING

You must be driving that Beamer. It is only 4 hrs from Gazza's (and under the speed limit - well most of the time) B)

This will test how well the tyres, motors and running gear stand up to being pushed to the limit for over 700 mtrs of constant driving

Hope you boys have access to a fan and plenty of fluids. Looks like you've got a warm day on your hands.

 

Goodluck

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 .....

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.

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.

 

More to come with the SCX Proxy :blink::P:lol: :lol:

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!

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!

Hi Guys

 

Well done to Chris on his maiden round win, looks like the boys tuning tips payed off :D

Also well done to Stig and Tore on the other podium spots.

and Good work done by Gazza, Craig and Co. on the round and nice pics of your wives too!!

my result was a bit further down the order than I would have liked but there ya go.

Now onto Obsidth's place, I hope it hasn't floated away out of the shed, Jason

 

Cheers Alan

ps thanks for the points update, Phil
