So is that a Yay or Nay?

I doubt they would cancel altogether, they would postpone the date until the equipment had been fixed (just a guess), lots of people would have paid up their entry fee.

Would have been good too, if it was nicer weather than last year.

Calder Park in Melbourne is still a bit of shit-hole, if you were going to move anywhere for drag racing it'd to be near WSID or Willowbank, bonus with Qld is they have some great (read slack) rules when it comes to street cars and mods. :)

I Spoke to AIR today.

They said the timing guy is sorting things at the moment and Bob Jane is coming down over the weekend.

They will know whats going on 100 % by wednesday.

Said it is most likely going ahead at this stage though.

I heard Bob Jane isn't prepared to spent 1c on fixing anything, as he will most likely lose the track in the upcoming June court case. Why would you spend money on something you are likely to lose soon? Sorry guys, no more drag racing this year is the likely eventuality. :P

It's official, we have the crappiest track in Australia. I feel bad for people who have spent thousands getting their car ready for this event only to find they may not be able to race in this State!?

Did Bob Jane ever spend 1c on the track? Doesn't show.

I've just been offered a great job in the Gold Coast. I am still undecided at this stage. It will be sad to leave Adelaide but I don't think I will miss SA notorious Regency, defect stations and AIR. Everything that has been said is so true. Took the whole year to prepare the car for this National event and what a let down :P

Decision, decision, decision ......

damn it would be sad to see you leave Danh!

Are you coming on the cruise? If so, please bring my helmet :) - also did you get my PM on ns.com a while back asking you to grab a secondary bonnet wire for me from from Zenith/Darren when you picked yours up? If you didn't and Darren reads this, can he please bring one (or more - who knows - you might sell some) for me to buy?

Nightracer :), I will try to come to the cruise on the 19th if I get part for the PPGearbox in time. I could not pick up the bonnet catch wire as I have been busy and his place is out of my way. If I cant make it I will try to catch up with you guys at the second meeting point (with your helmet).

Zenith if you read this too could you bring Nightcrawler and mine to the cruise?

Many SA drag clubs (including SMASA I believe) have thought of buying the track in the past.

1 big prob: Bob Jane don't wanna sell it. End of story. He just doesnt want to spend $$ on it either, senile old bugga..

anyone see him on the Muscle Car Masters on ch10 the other week? He had no idea what was going on around him :(

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
