Hi all,

Starting preparation on what is currently known as the QLD Excel Rally Series. Need a new and exciting logo for what will be known from 2010 onwards as the 'Hyundai Max Attack Challenge'. Need a compact, exciting logo, feel free to use the Hyundai logo in it. If you need inspiration, it's a one make series, the cars are near stock, and driven to the limit often knock of WRXs and EVOs. If you need further inspiration here's a vid of us testing last year:

Any questions or submission fell free to give me a bell on 1300 884 836, or email greg at gslrallysport dot com!

Cheers,

Greg

From Another Forum:

Hey Greg.

Great idea :blush:

Are you after a graphic logo? (something with photos/images in it) or something simpler, more vector based that can be used for letterheads and stuff in black and white?

Hi mate,

Something more vector based I guess. Which can be the basis of letterheads like you say, merchandise etc. Also Hyundai who run a factory car (infact the only factory rally car in Australia at the moment!), support the series very well, so although the Excel, are cheap, relatively fast, and super reliable, we won't be in them forever, so if possible keep it Hyundai specific, no so much Excel. Also for the right artwork we're looking at offering more than the $50.

An example of the type of thing we're looking at:

Cheers,

Greg

how much does it cost to buy an excel rally car?

To buy, they generally sell for between $6-$10k depending on spec level. To build from scratch, including the car, you could do it and win the series with a $10k car. Ours cost us $15k ish, or a full spec car like Hyundai's factory car (currently the only factory rally car in Australia!) currently owes them about $20k:

The biggest expense is suspension, which will set you back about $4-5k. The rest is a stock excel parts (which are super reliable), and a roll cage/seats/harness/sump guard.

Details finalized! Submissions will end 19th July at midnight, with voting starting then, and closing end of July. For full details checkout:

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
