Glad to see everyone getting pumpededed :)

I too am catching the fever, just booked flights to come down and lend moral support and try and watch a few stages! You guys better be prepared for a stage streaker!!!!

I'm arriving the 30th and am out on the 3rd after the epic pissup "D

Yeah it's getting there. I just hope it's all sorted when it gets back

Yeah Chris worked on it all day yesterday.

The good news is he is coming to Tas next week now as well. He's sitting in my silly seat :)

Saw your car in the flesh today Matt - it sure looks sweet.

I put my car through its paces today and it passed with flying colors. I also found someone to jump in the silly seat so it looks like I'm going to be back in the game!

Team Last Minute FTW.

Team Last Minute FTMFW!

Our car was finished off on saturday, its back to the original 944 Big Block after the 968 disaster last year.

Signwriter today, dyno tomorrow then on the boat later in the week.

Posts like these leave me sad and give me the feeling you'd already moved on :(

On the upside, I can't wait for you guys to whip Snowy with under 3 litres of naturally aspirated pus. :P lol

Moved on? Never! Just a broad minded person!

Im sure Snowy will have some excuse if we beat him...

Team Last Minute isn't that much FTW anymore. LOL

I'm struggling to get across to Tas (I do have a Sat night booking which means I will have 1 day to recce the whole event currently) and at this stage the 1st boat home is May 9th! LOL

And beds in Strahan for Sat night......... HAHAHAHA - yeah no.

Try the spirit of tassie frieght 0364217322. Thats how I got my car over and back to Racepace this week. Only thing is you would have to fly over.

It's OK - TTTNOJDB it is.

I have to say you picked a tough year to do Rookie though Matt. There are 4 pretty damn decent steerer's that I know of in Rookie this year. Glad I did it last year thats for sure. But Rookie should make for some interesting following this year.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
