Jamezilla Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 This weekend (Sept 15 to 17) is the 2006 Alphera Dutton Rally. http://www.duttonrally.com The event is based in and around Central Victoria (Shepparton and Winton) but makes it's way back to town on the Sunday for events at Essendon Airport and Sandown Racecourse. There are 3x SAU teams competing this year... Car 30: Snowy and Scotland in the upgraded backup GT-R (White R33) Car 36: Miss Juz and D1 Adam in the super sponsorised 200SX (Blue S15) Car 49: Steve McQueen (Roy) and me in the mighty, reborn Silver Bullet (Silver R32) We are all in the same group - so do Essendon at 9.30am Sunday - then Sandown at 1.00pm. The other 97 cars in the field are made up of swanky M3s, Porkas, Rarris, V8 Muscle, cheater Evos - and apparently a certain R34 GT-R Z-Tune! The road to Dutton has been fueled by heartache and pain - with some amazing effort made and challenges met to get the cars ready in time. We'd all love to see some SAU support!

saff_cossie Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I should be in Shep on Friday night (accomodation pending) and for the day on Saturday. Daft question, where is it in Shep? Will it be clearly sign posted? Not that I doubt the people I might be with won't know where it is anyway!

Snowman Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 You sure its not at Essendon on Sunday Juz? The latest event schedule I got we were at Essendon in the morning at Sandown after lunch. But then you should have the manual now so you should know best. Alan - we just drag up and down the main street at Shep. I mean where else in Shep could we possibly do motorsport?

Snowman Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Oh - and despite the demise of the Dragon we'll still beat the silver bullet 58-0. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/134016-its-dutton-time/#findComment-2486752 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mean_R34 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 (edited) Nice. Is Sandown a better spectator sport than Essendon? Might take the little miss down to inject her veins with some motorsport! James, is the Z-Tune actually gonna be entered into this Dutton?... coz that would be sweeet!

Jamezilla Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 McQueen and I spotted the R32 Golf (car 33) in all it's stickery goodness parked outside the Playboy Mansion last night. Would have let the tyres down, but it's not in our class Fern: 2x motorkhanas at Essendon then laps and another motorkhana at Sandown Snows: after about 2hrs work last night, the bullet now has a perfectly working horn. You guys don't stand a chance Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/134016-its-dutton-time/#findComment-2487672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Actually I've had 8hrs sleep every night this week. That's more important than any horn. You boys better stop worrying about crap like dataloggers and other useless stuff and get some sleep tonight cause we don't need another Peter Brock incedent. Seriously.
