I'll be there, entered in the XU1.

I've been watching for the entry forms as well, but haven't seen them as yet. Are they usually this late Alex?

Cheers,

Craig.

Hey Craig.
It depends on the schedule.
It would seem that they don't usually send out the forms until the previous event has taken place.

Alex

Great pics on that forum Leon. That Torana explains why the track was down for a while.

I missed most of this because I was entered and spent a fair bit of time in the staging line or way down in the pits. How good was the car show? Lots of variety.

My best was a 14.3 with no traction in first and second. Need semi slicks badly.

[fccool59]

you should get a red motor jonesy ;D

here are some pics of my phone, its not a fancy camera kind of phone so the pics arent real perfect, main thing is it holds 100 mp3 files.

i cought up with the old owner of my FE i bought when i was 18, alot of its parts are now on the FC, he had this yellow FE back then but he lived in quackers hill, not qld as he does now.
 this FE had a duggan alloy head then, now it just has a holden head with SU carbs, other than that the car lookd exactly as it was 14 years ago last time i saw it, he said he has had it in storage for ten years.




Alex & John were playing around in the pits trying to get it going better
this is how it looked by time they finished, they should have left the bar of but, looks like a 55 chev a bit now.

 A old mate from back in newcastle was there, he has started a business called smithy's kustoms, he was doing stripes and they came down from newcastle in his wifes EK




Then there was this ute from koolsville.


 I meant to get some pics of simon telfords new ej but the phone ran out of room and my camera got flat batterys and the video camera was in the car.
 it was pretty good out.

Gotta love that EK!!!! 8) 8)

Ha Ha CraigA
The cars computer for my Torana is tuned for a low boost 3psi and I was running on 7.5psi so the fuel to air mixures is wrong.
I Give you a run when I get mine properly tuned with diff ratio changed, tricking up my transmission and better rubber for traction.
lol lol

To everybody that wasn't there I got him on the start.
To All that wish to know my time it was 15.1sec.

Great Pics Leon.
And about the red motor. How much are you spending on yours. My stock as a rock Supercharged Buick V6 3.8L this engine cost me $4500. And with the changes that I will be make I'll race you too. hehe

Sorry Jonesy, its called a head start ;-) Or the advantage of auto over manual.

Here IS the proof.
