So Rob, does that mean that you have fixed your car or do you have another one up your sleeve?

....and who's Chris??

- Scott

Cheers Rob

Who ever you guys are ( :wink:

), my entry is posted.
Small track but great fun with a long sweeping back straight into a hairpin, then a couple of short accelerate/brake bits followed by two double apex corners........from memory.

Incar from Warwick Hutchinson's car, last year

But this one is probably a bit closer to a realistic lap pace!! Graeme Wood's Suzuki Swift.

Sent my entry off today for this one. Should be ready this time, list of things to do is much shorter now

by **Darren W.** » Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:56 pm

Good work Scott!

Gary's videos make it look a bit boring, but it's a busy little track which adds to the fun level.

Found this video

Hi Darren, I've driven the circuit at a sprint meet many years ago now, it was good to watch those videos to jog the memory a bit. Last time I drove it was this car's first outing (rebuild of the crashed rally car). Probably did it on the 008R patterned retreads that I used to run motorkhanas on :shock:

So has anyone else put their hand up for this one?

The green machine is almost finished, brakes are fixed and most of the brake fluid stays in the lines, electrics are almost finished and the clutch accelerator cables are hooked up.....still don't know if it actually runs or not... minor detail really....

I will need a ferry to get me out of the Sunshine Coast

Top gear crossed the english channel... strap an evinrude to the back of it

Entry list, looks to be a good turn out. Should of shut up about how nuch fun had last time :sad:

12 Escorts, 1 Anglia, 1 Sierra on a quick count.

Since when has your car been a 1600??

by **gen mk 1rs2000** » Thu Mar 22, 2012 10:34 pm

by **Darren W.** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 3:08 pm

No 1600cc pinto head, but it is actually a 1500 when I remove one plug lead :smile:

There's also a Holden Monaro in my group by the look of it, so a little mixed up.

I won't be entering but I'll be along for a watch and to get some miles on the rally car......just across the M1 from me so see you Sunday.

by **bmw02rally** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 8:24 pm

Came along today to see how everyone was doing. All the Escort seemed to going well, any pics from anyone?

by **Gary P.** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 8:43 pm

Great day had by all. Lots of Escorts including a totally new MK1 and even one with illegal cold air intakes where the headlights should be!!! Well done Scott for finally getting on track.
