2013 Cobra Nationals QLD Attendees

[spookypt]

Just a prompt to all QLD Members that the Nats is on again this year on the 4th, 5th and 6th of October and we are looking to rally as many old and new members to come along for this years event.

I believe like 2009,2010,2011 that we are able to join in the Thursdays "Speed off the Streets" Day so we get maximum track time and practise for those that want it.

Wakefield Park Raceway

To find out more make sure you are at the next QLD Club Breaky on the 14th July.

I'll still come back to the Nationals, just not in the Cobra.

Any one from Qld wanting to be a working passenger to and from the nats,
must have drivers licence - great terms and conditions - immediate start

Sure why not.......

I am, however, a realist.......

There is a certain 'Bunnings Green' Cobra that has recently had a horsepower injection and a certain 'Old Gold' Cobra up these parts that is a 'twin' of mine (or the other way round) that is also getting a very angry 6 litre Windsor transplant....

Not to mention all the other contenders....

All it takes is 1 mistake to ruin your day......

Seriously now..... It's all about the camaraderie really, isn't it?

This is our last chance to beat him Wazza

Too true Ash, but the competition is fun aswell

Big year this year.....Towmaster's going for back to back victories. Sorry Ash, no pressure.

Also, being a topic relating to a motorsport event...there's a strong push by the owners of motorsport venues up here (and around the country for that matter) for people to incorporate the use of a HANS device or equivalent /neck restraint when participating in motorsport events. This has come about from a series of bad/fatal accidents that have occurred where the use of this piece of equipment may have helped prevent the outcome.

Remember that if you do opt to use this safety device as part of your safety quiver that the anchors (the part that attaches the device to your helmet) is secured A. to a helmet compatible and compliant with HANS usage and B. the anchors are installed as per CAMS specification.
I've had a few people ring me about this so please check with your local race equipment shop that your helmet and its anchors are OK and installed correctly.

A lot of guys are beginning to use these up here. I for one highly recommend their use.

Fair call Spook, but I think a push for competitors to be fitting a harness and the lifting the standard of roll over protection should probably come first in our case.

[spookypt]

Gav I agree totally.

[Towmaster]

Wayne Proctor will not be coming. Something about his grannys 90th Birthday in UNZUD the same weekend..... Who would have a birthday on the Nationals weekend??? huh

[spookypt]

What about team DRB the flatchats???
