Would this be of any interest, Scotsman?

Maybe SAUVIC could enter a 3 car team?

Perhaps...

So is this event similar to dutton in that it's a total event with lots of sub events?

It sounds like there is two events running simultaneously with an observation rally running with a touring rally.

Do these guys close off any cool road sections or anything like that or is it just drive from one motorkhana to another?

Me too man. Have you got much left in the AO50s? I wanna see you get a 35 if the tyres are still good.

there is a fair amount left on them. i will be shitty if i cant break a 35.... but im just pulling numbers out of my ass.

hopefully it is dry... none of this intermittant crap. i wont complain if it pours all day... winton is SO much fun in the wet.

watching some of their vids it looks like you could blow them away in the gemini :happy:

Great effort guys, congrats on the win. Ryan, top stuff mate, awesome times at PI and HH. Go the S13!!

Thanks mate, just bridging the gap till you get back... any news on yours??

AND CAR 39!!!! :(

ah yes, who can forget a 1.46 in a stock car on street tyres.

Haha I don't think so, I may be chasing you for a while!

My never-ending-story of a car will hopefully be back over the next few weeks. The engine is out of it again with oil pump dramas, so I've bought a new one and it's being machined and installed at the moment along with a new set of big end bearings. The rest is pretty much done, so it's up to my engine builders to get it back, then bolt it in, tune it and off we go... hopefully... :P

Hey guys,

Just a heads up that all the images are now online - www.atcphotos.com

there was a delay with getting the Lang Lang images on-line due to Holden needing to approve them all first.., but they are alll approved now.

all images are at 800x533pixels in the main galleries, but the Hires section has 1960x1360pixels ( just click on the "FULL SIZE" icon above the image.

Cheers

So when is Winton Ryan? I dont have many lap around the place, i have done more from the passenger seat doign driver training :D But a 36 is 100% possible without all that many laps, so i have my fingers crossed that with some decent weather and 14-16 laps to get dialled in you can get well into the 35s :D COME ON! :)

We need a winton thread. its going to be HUGE! with the way the car handles at the moment god knows how it will actually go... its very different to the way it use to be, im thinkin its because the rear end is now all sweet.

4 weeks, your car could be done and your probably due for some time off... how bout it?

I have no idea, but yeah as of seeing the vids, it doesn't look that hard ( :blink: ). I was thinking of entering the Superfunhappyracingswift, but it's FWD and the GF is not up to navigating speed....yet :laugh: (plus i'll be OS when it's on)

It looks like a Rally event on tarmac....just navigate your way to each special stage, and then complete on motorkhana kinda stages then off to the next location for the next motorkhana stage.

Motorkhana and navigating skills look like the order of the day. :P

But next year i'll be entering....providing the Swift is gone :laugh:

Havent given my car a thought since Dutton, so no clue where it is at and care factor is pretty low since i am going to be OS for some time to come...lol project has copped further commissioning delays so how does November now sound :D. So no way i can make it back to Aus...perhaps when i am up for a new visa but even then now that you are setting some good rwd times i am happy to sit back and let you settle my arguments :)

Ah Troy, just throw me the keys, I'll let you know how deep into the 35's I get.

You know you want to... :D

Jak if you could fit into it then no issues with trusting you with the keys. As for Ryan, no way. The guy has an appetite for breaking rear ends, gearboxes and other wierd stuff. I suppose thats the price for going quick

LOL how quickly we forget a particular round at PI a while ago :D

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
