so you've left russ out in the cold :) . I'm sure we can organise some locals to knife some porsche tyres for you.

Should be some good sideways pics of you.

Edited by sav man

Kinda :) Russ knows what it means to me, so I have his full blessing...... Personally I don't think we have a chance against those lightweight Porshes, having seen Rex Broadbent's thing in action actually I say we categorically have no chance, but of course a Class win is always the aim :) Oh, and to finish!

Not sure how much sideways stuff we can afford, 4 tyre limit these days :)

Timmy, I'm not sure either mate? Haven't been able to work it out really! lol

flat out workin on targa wrest point 24/7... haven't touched the rx7, evo or ps3 in nearly two months!

on classic handicap the gtst has the same index as gavin james 944 s2 and he was a shoe in for second this year until i understand he put his medium front tyres on the rear and hard rears on the front.... classic outright would be tuff in the gtst again the 900kg / 370kw 911's and 1300kg / 350kw torana's.

ps. might not have played with my toys of late, but did have a steer of the 24hr brock monaro today!

Grab your surfboard Snows - black support car is confirmed!

Will be better than the Evo in terms of space and practicality too - so works out well :thumbsup:

The black car loves a good motorsport event :ermm: (Although it will be stickerless this time thank god).

And it will be even better than the EVO in terms of awesomeness and coolness as well! LOL

When I last spoke to Gavin he was excited that I'd bought something that I hope to compete against him with. He's a top bloke and a really good steerer to boot, so I'm looking forward to it :thumbsup:

Enjoy the Munro Stu?

So do we quit now on the cool car stakes or wat?

it was v-cool, everycar needs motec dash, squential box, massive brakes, 18 x farking hugh tyres!

only(!!) has 436kws but funny thing was its pretty much stripped aside form the dash and carbon blanking trim pieces but keeps the standard audiovox stereo fascia!

the whole car is very different to his targa monaro cv8 i had for a week back in 2004. remember the year brock and richards both ran out of fuel on a stage. brock said the gauge still indicated 1/3 tank of fuel and i thought yeah right someone just cocked up... turned out he was right, 1/3 tank of fuel and the sucker ran out on me too in the middle of no where late one friday night... maybe on a targa stage!

the other thing, the shift required a very positive motion, you look at v8supercar on telly and the latest generation of the the same gearbox looks like it only needs a very light touch... but what would i know!

So cool Stu, I'd love to take that for a spin.

In regards to the fuel issue, it doesn't surprise me one bit. In the 9 or so cars I've had, I've never once ran out of fuel. In my Clubbie I have run out 5 times in the past 18 months... and I have a fuel card. Unbelievable. The gauges are as useless as tits on a bull! It also needs a bit of fuel to start it, like 7 or 8 litres, so two trips to the servo with a jerry can. I now have a nice can collection... And the things are fvckin heavy when you have to push them. It's no 180SX that's for sure :)

Haha - well we do have 35 "official" fans on Facebook so maybe we should bring the Hummer incase some turn up to support? ;)

But I think this time around the RS4 will do just fine. Will hopefully bring the R36 for April (the wife will hopefully let me drive it by then).

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
