sorry for the long wait for an update, been flat out....

 

winton was fun i got 4 laps then blew head gasket :/ didn't get any practice coz scrutineering was a pain, so my first race was like practice. i got 2 laps with it going good, then the idler pulley fell off so i had no waterpump or s/c, it boils when the temp guage is half.... and i thouhgt the lack of power was from the pvc pipe blown off but no. i then did the next race in dads ea, blew a tire on the in lap haha, the one he put on a few days earlier :y: still got some good incar vids so here they are :y:

my next race is on may 6th, i can't wait :D

Can't believe how much of a score this was! Looks like so much fun too.

G'day, yeah it was a good score, and its a hell of alot of fun, and its still cost me under $1500 haha

Posted

Hey are you up for the winton day on 21st?

hey mate, nah it would be fun but i don't have enough money as I'm doing the sprint, what do they do on the tampered days, is it just practice, and what sorta prices are they? cheers :y:

Posted

much better than a sprint day. At tampered you'll get timed laps with sessions of 15min duration. Probly 4 or 5 sessions and at the end of the day you can go out long as you like till 4pm when the track closes

You should see the amount of weld I put into my spider gears, and I thought it wasn't enough lol, she looks like a hell of a lot of fun but mate good work, can't wait to get mine going might see u on the track

yeah, my dad used to put a few little bits of weld on his old toranas and that was enough so it should last alright, yeah hopefully would be cool :D
