We went out to this little track in Stanthorpe For a super sprint, which is 4 timed laps. Position is based on the total time for the 4 laps. We got our pit setup as usual for these events and we were free to camp with the cars overnight. (-2 is blimin cold)
 Others had big set ups and lots of friends, eg this tranportre is for 2 minis.  There was a wide range of cars there from fairly stock escorts, to 13b turbo sportsedan escorts   There was a very fast VG 30 powered 240K, I was too busy racing to get a shot of the engine bay but it was tower to tower of engine. The vent was so a pod filter could fit   The racing saw 4 cars on track at once, sent off 2 at a time. In my group I was sent off with a sport sedan Mini... a bloody quick mini.  Here is a link to an incar vid, sorry about the quality. Im working on a new mounting position too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQW0OcoaEq4 And some on track shots.      By the end of the weekend I had won my class, Sports cars 3L (the capacity has to be multiplied by 1.7 because it is turbo'd) and over and 3rd outright. The super mini came in 4th behind me by 1/2 a second. In front of u was a formula libra and a track preped westfield. The track suited them very well and they were on super soft slick tyres. Next event is Grafton Hill Climb june10th -------------------- R33 toy 300 rwhp (9 psi)

Going to get into a Toyota hey mate, so you can compete with the fast cars?  Keep me informed about the next Carnell day in October. I might be tempted to come join in though it looks pretty short. May end up getting a bit dizzy Also, you coming along to the next JDM round? -------------------- TA22 + LS2 = ??

I got my hands on the sup regs at the pittsworth sprints.
Noddy/hrd-hr30 Just a quick question. is it just the sprint challenge or the short circuit touring car that you will be entering? the entry cut off numbers are around 80 for sprint and 30 for short circuit is the short circuit more mulit car racing or something as the classes are diffrent bracket systems to the sprint. I havn't got the regs with me today but i will be more specific if needed tomorow with regs in hand. Troy |

yep, short circuit is head to head racing. I was just going to do the supersprint.
Not entirely sure I'll be out there anymore, I'm doing Grafton Hillclimb 2 weeks before this and want to do the QRCS races at QR 2 weeks after, so I might have to skip this one. |
