We have up seven GTRs that compete in the tasmanian circuit series, not including the GTSt's.

nice...is that the "Targa" class? Its pretty much the same regs as 3E/Combined touring in NSW :)

Yeah Targa Class of the Octagon Series.... the only rule is that you need to run R tyres as we group categories into time brackets. Takes all the hassles out of eligibility and puts the emphasis back on on fun... its still serious competition though.

The GT champs are running with the Konicas (or v8scds or wtf) aren't they?

No the GT series is run with the Australian Porsche Drivers Championship. At the moment the only car from Japan is the Honda NSX which is finally doing well with a round win now. This year it will be telecast on channel 9. Hope fully some GTR's come out to play.

Actually...I understand it is ready to go at last :rofl:

Hopefully he and the BSM boys can give it to those pesky rx7s this year.

There's still 4 production touring GTRs around....but only 1 has a running engine atm....hopefully we will all be back on track early this year.

Good luck to Man_in_bulk, roadandrace and haw001 to get out there, can't wait to see 4 gtrs on the grid together :)

Hi Duncan, Mr B has decided to take some time to do further development on the Improved Production GTR. So it won't be racing for a while. Dave is driving his own car in Under 2 Litre IP races.

:D Cheers :)

the 2006 Australian GT Eligibility list has been released the 34GTR is still able to be run unlike the Supra and RX-7 as they were both cut from the series. The GTR is the only car that is being allowed to run in 4WD however it will be hit hard with power as turbo cars are being raped to slow them down look at the NSX gets a new turbo motor and wins a round then gets RPM and HP cut to "even it out" and isn't competative any more 9.2 seconds off pole today at Bathurst. The GTR is also the most affordable car on the list so i am surprised that people complaining about budget aren't going for the cheaper options over the porsches.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
