Not sure if it has been mentioned already but it would be good if their was some kind of indication on the car if the actual owner of the car is driving, maybe some kind of colour sticker system on the windscreen.

The MX5 could be. You have read the posts.

Open cars will be doing around the 12's, clubsprint cars around the 18's I guess.

Interesting idea about the stickers, but may I ask why??

I think JP is thinking with his head and not his heart. Of course he wants to drive himself, but he wants the best for his business. Gives him more time to walk around the pits and answer questions about his toy.

I fail to see what you driving his car would do for his business....you could bolt pram wheels on a turd and make it go fast. I think he could do more for his business as a whole by keeping it 'in house' and driving it himself.

LOL that is your thoughts, not ours.

Imagine if every car owner in motorsport actually drove there own cars......from drags to F1. Could be interesting LOL

Not a red MX5 with vodafone over it by any chance?

And WTF is with the Landcruiser in clubsprint class???

+1

lol Paul its big of you to give John grief for not driving when you're putting Luke Searle behind the wheel.

Doesn't look like many people are brave enough to drive their own cars. Gary is. Steve is. Kev Whitehead is. Mark and Russ is (are?). thats the only ones I know who are.

Is your other car coming to play? (the yellow one)

the bloke has proven he is nothing more than a gum flapper, circuit racing is his supposed genre in the motorsport world but has now shown his true colours.

:):(:)

No, no, no ,no. Before all this Time Attack big city lights stuff, John has been running track days through his business since i think 2000, possibly earlier, My first few track days were UAS days and i suspect the choice to run these days were not always fiscally smart ;)

So he has given many customers and Sydney guys friendly and open doors to getting into track days. Now he doesnt need me defending him, but i suspect handing over the keys will be hard for the old bloke. But he is running a business, and if a driver can get him a few spots up the board then its all exposure and results for the car that he has been playing with for years, and his business then its a smart decision.

That all said i cant believe that UAS cannot get its hands on another car for John to compete in? Hell, maybe i need to give John the keys to my car...just so he can marvel at RB20 POWAH!!!!

John will not need to bring his own loo paper to the event....plenty on here willing to lick his arse.

;);):P

footage of john getting out of the car at wakefield looking like he'd singlehandedly driven the Spa 24hr, getting his pit bummy boys to fan him down was some of the most amusing stuff ive ever seen.

this thread was getting rather dull so close to the event...i think it needed a kick in the pants with a bit of "smack talk"

Ok, nothing wrong with an opinion. But it has nothing to do with wanting to be his lap boy. It has to do with respect.

errr, i will leave it there.

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
