lets hope ANDRA has the same positive attitude as that.

if they dont, we will be racing with the v8s

Or racing in a Ray Box premoted series...unless ANDRA is prepared to properly premote the sport and get some $$ and sponsors behind it i think its already dead....The Captain has abandoned ship before it went down....Jason was smarter than i gave him credit for.

might i just ask as well - why be so scared of racing with the v8s.

ive been out and raced with the v8s myself and watched the likes of jacobson racing the v8s in qld too.

i love it.

mick

the only thing im scared of is getting eaten by sharks.

i ran the last test and tune with all the v8 boys it was fun waving at them as i flew past.

a lot of them are good guys, but it kind of wears thin trying to explain to a yobbo that a 3460 pound car can run tens on street tyres and be street driven. not to mention there rules have been set out for v8 based cars, the rule book doesnt understand our technology.

i like racing similar cars with people of similar minds.

sport compact is huge int he states and thats the way i want to see it over here.

i would also suggest ray box wont be running a national series that he loses money from. i think people who think that will happen are living in a fairy land.

Well....wasn't almost 3/4 of this years series ran by SCP??....and wasn't only one of those rounds a failure because of almost no promotion and meddling by track management and RTA??....Jamboree and Mini Jam were a huge success..............ahh i better go now my fairy bread is getting cold.

fairy bread, well i just finished my pink donut and it was scrumsish. im not one to talk in this manner, but i know some one that knows some one who knows ray very well, and i believe he is happy to just run the jamboree as he did before.

sydney is a freak, what works in QLD doesnt work in sydney, no one has been able to get the sydney event right from and overall prospective for the racing, the girlies, etc etc.

i am also lead to believe that if the sport compact side of andra dies that ray will not be running the current classes and rules, it will go back to the ways of old.

MR blonde, whats happening mate (cant remember your real name now), i should clarify my "its huge in the states" to from a tv and spnosorship and size of fields point of view its huge, from a how many sepctators do they get at an event, its stuff all probably less than our meetings. and i make this statements from first hand information.

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
