No sprint events for me or Ron this year....
I wore a few different hats that week....and a million other things to do all weekend (work/club pres.,M.C./competitor),
so stuck to the drags/hill climbs/slalom etc.,plus I drove the car down again, so had to make sure I was able to drive it home again.

and Ronnie.......
He just trailered his beautiful NEW Daytona down to take home the Show and Shine 1st. place.

I'm not bitter about that at all !!

As Andre Agassi always said........"Second Sucks" ...lol lol

The Queenslanders were super happy with the whole event...although the trailer for the trophies was chockers, (nearly got done for overloading !!)

We're already looking forward to next year.

Cheers,
Warren

Nationals....
Ron 1
Warren 2 (and a 2nd.)

He also beat me at the famous "Brunswick Heads Fish and Chip Festival Show and Shine"......
Or as I refer to it as "The Brunswick Heads Fish and Chip Festival RAFFLE"

It's a beautiful car,and it was a worthy winner....it's all just a bit of fun to tease him where I can.

Cheers,
Warren

Ron reckons he's finally moving it out of his lounge room now that he's Nats S&S champion but I doubt it.

2 more videos i've managed to get uploaded since the Nationals (finally!)

This is some "highlights" (saves, slides, spins just anything that was of interest captured on video).



Second one is the passenger laps with my uncle following Ashley in his Supercar.

Nice, it amazes me the fastest laps are also the smoothest, go figure.

Is that a close ratio gearbox, you appear to work the gearbox a little more than the cobra boys.
Great stuff!

Yes it is a close ratio gearbox. Craig from Absolute Pace got it for me when I found the road car gearbox lacking in ratios... I'm still only using 3rd and 4th around here. John Whites 'King Cobra' winning Cobra also has the exact same box. It's a Tremec TR6060 MG9, the gearbox they put behind the LSA engine in the HSV GTS. For the money it's a no brainer, a Holinger was going to cost me about $20k to set up.....

this thread appears to be "stuck" - this post is to un-stick it.
