Help Grumblebee Have A Crack At Time Attack

[fatz]

Some of you guys know that grumblebee (James) is entered in superlap.

Unlike most of the cars out there this is a genuine budget shed built bit of awesome

And you are not going to see many r31's at superlap having a crack.

This is his car:

Anyway it costs a fortune to enter and have a decent crack(you won't get change from 5k I recon)

So I am putting this up to see if everyone in the club will get behind him and maybe help out.

How can you help?

slip him some cash. This can help him by:

Buy the good tyres (the super softs are about 3 seconds quicker than the medians)

Buy petrol

Subsidise accommodation

Buy faster bits and a tune

Lighten the car

Or maybe you can help out when he is out there

Or even cheer him on( whilst drinking beer like me)

So anyway I've slung him $100 to get the ball rolling( just because I love r31's)

Be generous and help a 31er out if you can.... Even if it's five bux

Any cash received goes straight to James,

Good thinking and a really thoughtful deed Pete.

Will post link to this thread in the ACT section. (James' home turf)

and I can pass the hat round at this Friday nights meet and help out.

I'll match your donation.

I'm already sponsoring a few guys in the drift community but wouldn't mind getting behind a time attack car.

James if your reading this PM me so we can talk

[fatz]

good to hear guys

not many battlers left in superlap

and r31's are awesome (and this one is particularly fast)

[FeZ25]

Might be worthwhile starting up a kickstarter.

Easy for people to chuck a few dollars into that.

[fatz]

yea once james comes on here ill update the bank details to his

and then all cash will go direcly

and he can tell us what he got with it

[Bullet32]

Great idea Fatz - I'll contribute towards this worthy cause!

By the way, here are some more photos of "Grumblebee" for those who havent seen it in the flesh... I think it's likely that this will be the only R31 at WTAC this year, I reckon it will also surprise a few people too.

I would, but on phone....

[Duncan]

What an excellent cause. I'll donate a tyre of whatever type he is running, now he only has to buy 3.

Might also be able to help in some other ways, I've sent James some ideas.

Airborn... Yea baby

[Got a Pulsar]

Yeah, that was not a happy landing.

[MBS206]

I think SAU NSW owes him what ever on his front car he ate from that air bourne moment...

With this sort of stuff, people(me) have no idea what it takes to get this sort of a car going.

What about a parts "wish list"

like..... tyres x 3 = $400
