Shane,

 

Please put the Jokers down and also a Team from Europe.......for a bit of international flavour.

 

Guys,

 

We are also going to try and run a 1000 lap enduro with the ever more popular OAPR LMP's on the Saturday. Shane is just trying to work it all out with James before we can let you all have the details. But plan on a weekend of endurance racing at HSC......

 

Cheers,

 

Jan

Canberra #1 team is League of Gentlemen.

 

Jan, can't wait to see just how quick your cars are.

 

Cheers

 

Paul

 

Paul,

 

Thanks, but I wish they were.....you must be meaning Garry or Shane.....they are the ones with the seriously quick projectiles.... And at HSC Cam is always hard to beat on car speed too. If the 2014 race was any indication you should see sub 6 seconds with the SA GT's and mid 5's with the LMP's.

 

Anyway, we are all looking forward to having some new teams to play toy cars with.....for a whole weekend!!

 

The details are starting to come together and the available team spots are reducing fast. The entries will probably get limited to a maximum of 8 for both enduro's.

 

Cheers,

 

Jan

Guys the lanes are full now. 8 teams are now entered. These teams are confirmed for the 8 hr.

 

Please let us know as well who will be racing in the OAPR as drivers could change even the teams.

 

I'm sorry to say but Canberra 2 team I'll have to put you down as 1st reserve if anyone else pulls out of the event.

(Shane above and I posted at the same time - we had the same thoughts)

 

Wow,

 

That did not take long to fill up the team spots for the SA GT 8 hour. Thanks to Shane for organising again and to James for giving us the use of his great race centre.

 

Shane can we start getting the teams to indicate entry for the OAPR LMP 1000 too. Of course it need not be the same teams or even the same drivers as for the SA GT's. But I suppose it might be an idea to give the teams that have entered for the 8 hour, first option - may I propose end of December 2014, before you allow 'other' teams to enter. Maybe we can start a reserve list for both enduro's in case a team pulls out, then at least everyone knows what chance they have of getting a drive.

 

You can put down a Joker Team for the LMP 1000 too, we will still decide who gets to drive.

 

Cheers,

 

Jan

The European connection is starting to take shape. I have commenced negotiations with Gabriel Inabnit. Gabe is a former Model Car World Champion, 2013 Dutch ScaleAuto Champion, and convener of the 2014 Dutch ScaleAuto Championship. He's kind of handy with a slot car...

 

Of course he needs to get clearance from his current team and sponsors, and all that other stuff that mega-famous uber-talented Europeans need to do, but we are pretty hopeful at this stage.

 

Question: How many drivers required in each team for the OAPR race?

Edited by Tim Tyler

13 times world wanking champion. Not proud of it.
