Thanks for the pics Baz. Those BDM cars look menacing!

Anyone know what type of EFI setup that is on the red car with stripes?

No worries pal. What a great weekend.

That car belongs to Trevor Simkin from Victoria. One of the Vic's who read this thread will no doubt post you an answer.

This is indeed Trevor's car
Trevor fabricated this set-up himself

Apparently it allows ready inspection of the valves without the tedious requirement to remove parts...

The photographer, Benjamin Old, is starting to get photos up in his site now. He says that there will be more photos appearing over the next week or so as he continues to populate the site

GASP !!!!!

How DARE you call that "Ride on Mower thing"...an "Open wheeler thing" ???!!

In actual fact it's an EXTREMELY quick race car owned by a good driver John MOORE...(1m04secs at Wakefield Park is fairly brisk.)

It's an RCR SLR., and a heap of fun to drive.....

Same wheel base as a GT40....and great power to weight ratio.

Much like driving a big Go kart.

Cheers,
Warren

Maybe the 'ride ons' might be allowed to run at Shelbyfest this year?

You will find the owners of them have Cobras too.
They are great to watch.

More than a couple of sharp edges Gav, signals (if there are any) too low, etc.
