17th August at BMR , inline China motors (Cheetah II , Little Rippers etc) MJK narrow tyres , open chassis , Sunset FJ and FX Holden 40 thou bodies with vacuum interior. 6 - 8 Spare cars available to use on the night . PM if you want in , 15 racers so far have confirmed their attendance.
Second event option will be either FJ / FX Holdens with the 50cent electric mirror motors , open chassis , scale rims with 4mm wide tyres or if there is not enough 50c Holdens built we can run 1/32 scale cars - car class / type decided on the night - see what we all have with us , Aussie V8s would be a good bet.

The Monaro was painted up by Bob - 40 years experience painting Soft bodies - he should be able to get them looking good huh. He painted it up in just over an hour ! Still takes me hours to paint one up but I use a trowel as Bob says - still brushing them up , he sprays them.
