For anyone interested there will be a 1 hour Sports car race held as part of the AMRS round at Winton on August 25th and 26th. The Intermarque Challenge will be running over the Saturday and Sunday having practice, qualifying and 2 five lap races (one for each driver if two drivers are listed for 1 hour race). On the Sunday the race will be the feature event for the round with the 1 hour "endurance" style race including driver swap if 2 drivers are entered.

The round will get national TV coverage (SBS speed Week) as well as international coverage on pay TV in South East Asia and New Zealand.

All sports cars are welcome (generally 2 door coupes) Skyline GTST, GTR, 200SX, RX7, Supra, NSX and 3000GT's ect. Currently every round of the series has been won buy a Porsche with Maserati, Ferrari and Dodge close behind them. The series administrators are interested in seeing some Japanese cars out competing with the European and American cars. Unlike a few of the other sports cars series turbo cars are not only able to race but are welcomed as the series organizers drive Turbo Porsche's.

payment will not be processed until 14 days prior to the meeting if you request it. Any problem that arises-- as long as we are kept informed -- a 100% refund is guaranteed up to 4 days prior to the meeting

So if anyone has any questions or is interested in coming out to try and stop Porsche from getting a clean sweep of the series PM me or contact John Good via the email address provided above. If not come out and enjoy watching some great cars fight it out on track.

There will also be a sprint round held at Calder in September if anyone is interested please let me know.

I'd Love to race in this series... reminds me of the old GTP/procar days with all types of cars battling it out. I went to watch AMRS Intermarque round 2 at Calder in March and there is some serious cars in this category and i don't consider my car to be at that level.. I don't think I could justify the $550 per round entry costs without a couple of major sponsors.. maybe one day. I know a few damn quick GTR's that would give the leading porsche a run for their money :thumbsup:

the series has different classes in them to make sure you are racing with similar paced cars (forgot to mention that in the first post).

I understand that it can get quite expensive if you are funding your self. Many of the current teams / drivers are self funded so they don't attend every round of the series.

doesnt anyone reply to these things??? u have half the info champ... u should add ALL of it next time

Sorry not getting back to you , at the time i didn't have the entry fees. I know they can vary for us due to the higher track time ect.

If anyone is interested please let me know ASAP as entries are closing in the next few days

This round is really shaping up to be a the best one this year, so if you aren't competing and want to see some great racing head out to Winton :( (I'm just PISSED i won't be making it over there for the round)

      Haha no I'll do that one tomorrow. I've been ignoring it. It's the 5.0 one I'm taking about. (There is a little X to hide the 4.7 one if you want)

      So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
