trouble for the Smitts / Rapinette team at eastern creek

Back in the pits the crew tried to do whatever they could to put the car back in the game couldn't eliminate the breaking down / miss or whatever the hell it was.

Thanks to all that lent a hand, tool or bit of advice.
We were planning an overhaul of the electrics and a dissy regraph anyway to suit the motor specs.
Those B&W pics look cool Leon.....she ain't called Miss Behavin' for nothin'.  Grin
Here's a selection of pics that might interest forum users.

Hey Shane.
I don't think it was.
Might have been Jonesy.
Leon had his boys with him also.

The FE ute was running in the 13's with red mtr.
The White FE sedan was also in the 13's with V8.
The EJ had a turbo 6 and was running 12.4's.

Here is a highlights video currently doing the rounds.
Warning to dialup, it's a bit big.

 Any one notice the commentator was saying that EJ with a red 6 had a small block chev in it. I guess if they dont know they just make stuff up like magazines and newspapers.
Also with the thousands of songs written about hot rods and drag racing they seemed to stick to hippy music, Someone requested jan & dean, (for those that dont know this band mainly wrote songs about muscle cars, surfing and drag racing) The commentators kind of made fun of his request, maybe the commentators forgot they were at the nostalgia drags and thought they were at woodstock smoking joints in their flower painte d kombi.
