Received the first lot of cars today. XR8 and DanielS. Just over a week left to get the cars shipped. If you haven't paid, when you do pleas make sure to note in the payment what your forum name is so I know who all paid.

Can't wait to see all the cars. Going to be a great field.

I was going to say, its all gone a bit quite with only 1 week to go! Good to see you have some starters. I have done some final shake down tuning for mine today. I have to make some inserts and then it should be ready to be sent.

Cheers

Yeah i am getting a bit worried. Any melbournians that want to drop them off rather then post them they can, I am thinking of having a friday night last ditch test and tune at my place. Come, race, test, tune and leave the car behind. Problem is if I have timing working by then or not, otherwise there isn't much racing, testing or tuning that can be done.

Hi
My car should be on the way over to Brumbyville first thing Tuesday morning, I'm hoping to give it a bit of a final run on 6 Pines tomorrow night without to many dramas

this friday Eric??? i've got mine and slittlehales and mine is a bit sick!

[gzminiz]

yeah, cut off is really the 13th (but that is just in case the post office sucks and the machine doesn't stamp it till saturday) I will be home tomorrow for melbournians to drop it off. Probably be in the garage tomorrow evening working on the timing.

I got in the shed tonight at last. It has been too hot last couple of nights and fixed the lead where i wanted it. I weighed it and it has gone up a gram from spec. Must be the extra blue tac. I gave it a run at Hoffys on monday night and it seemed to go really well on most lanes. I still think it will be a bit too hot on some tracks but there is no doubt it will give some drivers a wide eyed experience on occasion. Will post tomorrow.

Great looking field!!!

Is the black Audi the number 5 from the Tazracing stable (in other words, i hope it got there).

[smallnails]

that couldnt be yours Brian, theres no decals on that one, let alone dodgily cut out stickers!!

[gzminiz]

it is taz, it is also the most polite car asking that the screws be backed off 1 full turn "please"

[Tazracer]

that's why I asked if it was my car nails, it should be showing some nice no:5 decals, hope they didn't fall off in transit. last time i take your advice in applying decals brad!!

As for him being a polite little car eric, i sent him away with orders to be nice...........until race day...

[gzminiz]

The #5 are there, u just can't see them, your black hole for light paint makes it hard to see them.

Cars look great. Only one GT one entered? Also no Spirit Dallaras I am a little surprised. I had the only Zonda last year so perhaps having the only one of something is a theme.I am curious to see how the zytecs go as i have heard by folk who run LMP class overseas that they are a gun car. Also no Avant slots? or is one of the Audis an avant? I can't see shanes audi either. I will call him and wind him up if he hasn't posted his entry in.Can't wait to hear your first impressions of the cars.

obsidith's is an avant, and by far the best avant i've driven handling wise. no livery twins either, what's with that?~
