Here is my brother Michael getting a bit crossed up in turn 3. Its funny just how flat the car sits, even at the edge.

The car belongs to Michael and myself. Michael is the one with the magic fingers when it comes to working on it.

that's a really good shot of the car. looks great!

Are you going to be at the Bathurst Speed Weekend in December? I'm coming down again this year and would love to see this machine in action.

Sure would like to! I have no details though. Can you send me a link or info on the event??

How much of the circuit do you get to race on??
Or is it a hill climb?

Bathurst Speed Weekend

Not much info about it other than dates.

I came down in 2003, it was a sprint down Conrod, through the Chase and finishing on the start/finish line on Saturday, and a Hillclimb running reverse direction from just before Forest Elbow through the Dipper and ending at Skyline on Sunday. But I think Andrew mentioned its going to be Mountain Straight Hillclimb (not sure where that starts and finishes) and Conrod Supersprint this year.

I've never been on such a smooth, wide, grippy surface as that place. And driving full tilt down Conrod was almost like living out the fantasy of racing at Bathurst It was awesome. Definitely worthy of another visit.

I've got two other cars confirmed so far to make the trip, including Dave Homer's awesome turbocharged Suzuki Swift, who holds the record fwd 1/4mile pass on street tyres or something like that - low 11s, but he's hoping for a 10 at Jamboree. He's also got alot of class records at Mt Cotton Hillclimb, and State titles. It should be something down Conrod... Keep Andrew checking his mirrors!

D,
We think the flares are to suit an early model Torana. They are fiberglass. Hope this helps!

I heard a nasty rumor that this car suffered some engine problems quite recently. Piston problems i believe.
OH, SAY IT ISN"T SO. It looks too good to be sidelined.
