Yep, C3 is the entry level license (= wearing "P" plates again:p ) C4 is basically for national series (supercars, nations cup etc) C5 is international, eg Baturst 24hrs/ Le Mans etc....

I've gotta tell you, it's much easier to get these in GT3 than the real world:D

Yep, Bathurst 24hr was requiring C5 = International class license. I think that is part of why they are having trouble finding enough local drivers. The C5 upgrade is on a similar basis to C4 upgrade - observed performance in national level competitions over a number of races.

Corect if I'm wrong...But I think you actually need some sort of approval/expirence level to race at Bathurst ?

Yep thats sounds about right Peak,,,The real Bathurst requires some experience in V8 supercars ,,,,I'll find out for sure on Monday when my Boss gets back from Mallala....His son's doing Formula Ford this weekend. Go the Bosch Spectrum.....

Both bathurst races just require a C5 license - but you don't have to have raced a supercar before - there's a couple of BTCC drivers coming over for the Bathurst 1000 race.

I think most of the teams just prefer someone who's driven them before coz they're pretty different compared to other touring car classes.

Yes and No,,I'm wrong as well,, Duncan,,,A C2 is cool but you need 5-6 sigs on your licence in 1 year before you can run at Bathurst in a Supercar....The C3's what you actually need,,,,Marks still using his C2 with Sigs because it's cheaper at the moment and he's doing enough races to keep it updated.....Mind you to get those signatures,,,it's going to cost YOU big Money and I mean BIG money. I think leasing a FF for the weekend is about $15000 to $20000 and thats with out losing a wheel....$5000 for each.

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
