  1. your given 1 when you join one of the state clubs. if you want addional stickers, you order them when you join, but they do cost extra.... AND.... if you join one of the state clubs, you get a neat little banner under your avatar that says which club your a part of!!! YAY! or you could just be a cheap skate like beau and pretend to be a member, by getting a sticker, and not actually joining! HA HA! jks
  2. unfortunately your right.... Another feature of the class structure is the fact Modern Tarmac Rally Spec Cars that fit into the above class structure and comply with vehicle eligibility requirements will be eligible to compete. "We've come up with a structure which I believe will produce an interesting mix of cars and is designed to provide a good platform for the manufacturers to showcase their latest models," said Denyer. "These are not specialist race cars, so it's relatively easy under the new regulations to convert to race spec for the 12 hour event. This offers a low cost opportunity to compete in a mainstream endurance event at Mt Panorama, in a class that should suit any budget, and all on a level playing field. "All of the categories will provide some great excitement for a variety of reasons but the alternative energy eco classes will be particularly interesting given Audi's performance in a Diesel powered car at the LeMans 24-hour race earlier this year." Event Director James O'Brien believes the mixture of cars in the WPS 12-hour race will add extra spice to what is shaping up to be an impressive line up of events at the 2007 WPS Festival. "When looking to revitalize the 12-hour race we knew it was important to focus on Production Cars, not Sports Cars or Hot Rods. I believe the eligible cars, multiple classes and the limited modifications which are allowed should encourage multiple manufacturers to participate," said O'Brien. "We have introduced a cost ceiling of approximately $125,000 which emphasizes our focus of ensuring the WPS 12-hour race remains a pure 'Showroom Enduro' contest without being invaded by the elite marques." The revival of the 12-hour race continues to receive the full support of CAMS and Graeme Emerton, Chairman of the CAMS Australian Motor Racing Commission, considers the classes should assist to provide a quality field at the hallmark event. "CAMS is confident the class structure maximizes opportunities for manufacturer and privateer entrants. We look forward to this being the catalyst for Production Car racing and an eventual return of an Australian Manufacturers Championship," said Emerton. as you can see, the race has been designed for Australian built or sold production cars with a fairly small budget (in terms of motorsport) and limited modifications. unfortunately, a clapped out targa/tarmac GTR wont fit the bill.... having said that, do you reckon an Aus delivered R32 GTR would be an eligable entrant? hhmmm.....
