how do they break up the groups for the race cars ?
(that datsun 1200 was off the pace, running in ?? and the capri was around 1:05 at both meetings)

Luke, do you remember how the points system works ?
our points tally pretty much sucks

I cant figure it out to be honest, they changed the points allocated from the first sprint by the looks of it. Might send them an email asking for an explanation of the points.

The other thing that got me was that radical thing went out first everytime and we got shafted on our laps, as it got 5 timed laps and we only got 4 we mention that aswell.

email sent about the "lost" laps
let me know if you get an answer back, I never have yet

Have done the same and hopefully they will reply.

OK Waynes Photos are up http://www.osella.com.au/wayne/2006-Spr ... /index.htm

He probably has more if you email & ask him

now I know why the track was so dirty, check out your mate in the ford

http://www.osella.com.au/wayne/2006-Spr ... /index.htm

Ah yes our old rally cross Falcon mate! Dont think he knew the cars are really supposed to stay on the black stuff

Very nice pics though may have to get me one or 2, just out interest did they get your spin?

The Goose !
doesnt look that way

you can also try emailing redhotshotz@optusnet.com.au and asking them to sent you a couple of samples. their web site is www.redhotshotz.com but they dont put the photos up on their site

Wayne from Osella is cool, I have bought a couple of photos of him in the past with no problems. http://www.osella.com.au/wayne/

I THINK YOU NOW HAVE A PHOTO TO USE AS AN AVATAR ??????

cheers.

The two of you had a bit of fun it seems, 'note to self - get to the next one'

Good news is that i got an entry for gatton and am looking forward to a week of late nights to get things organised. i got a new diff, 5:1 which should help a bit. especially at Mt Cotton where the old 3:7 was a bit tall.

i Have been in sydney for the past two weeks with work so i missed you guys at QR. Sounds like a good day though.

G'day Alex, yeah mate it was a fun day.

Good to hear you got into gatton
Is that this weekend ?

If you have a close ratio box you may not like your 5.1 much.
I know Ken Graham actually went slower when he changed to the 5.1 at Mt Cotton, but he has a close ratio gearbox. He is now looking for a 4.6, the 4.6 are hard to find. But yes when i changed from 3.7 to 4.8 I went a bit quicker at Mt Cotton.


Luke

let me guess, no email back yet from QR ?

Yes is this weekend.
Scrutineering Friday
Racing from 12.00 on saturday
and 8.00 am start on sunday.

My gearbox is just a 5 speed. (240K i think)

No nothing back from QR but im not really surprised by that. I wont be able to make the next meeting on the 1st of april but am hopefully doing the mid week one on the wednesday after if you guys can make it.

midweek is no good for me i'm afraid

same here, Midweek is a bit hard to get to with work in the way.

Are we all doing the hill climb at the end of the month.

Jeff,
When you get your SR we will be in the same class so i think i might need an upgrade too??

Alex, I will be there on the 26th
I don't think Luke has a CAMS lisence.
my Octogon says there is a come & try / practise day in May, but it's not on the internet calendar ??

Speaking of SR20's mine turned up last night
BUT don't worry mate as it will probably take me 12 months to collect all of the bits and get it in the car

here is my short list of stuff that I need & I am sure that I have missed out lots of things.

throttle body
starter motor
1 spark plug lead
nuts & rubber washers on top of head
extractors / headers
reversed 1600 engine crossmember
engine mounts
throttle cable setup
flywheel
clutch
gearbox
fuel pump

But i have got an sr20de auto box to sell
and eventually I will sell my L16, extractors, twin SU's etc.

cheers Jeff
