Given you are in S.A. you might like to make contact with Bruce Allen, the ex editor of the ex national "Snaketales" magazine.

There was some effort some years back in this regard.

I do have Bruce's mob number from that era but don't know if it is current. PM me if you want that old number.

No need Les, Bruce and the Dreamer go way back. In fact they are a bit part of why we have the Nationals. They were involved from the very start with Mildura and then West Wyalong
He has been pushing this barrow tirelessly for for a long long time and rather than chase restricted club rego for our cars, we should get on the band wagon and help him achieve what the hot rodders have. We need big numbers to lobby

Totally agree David, should have been done years ago when it was first mooted.

I'm led to believe there was very little support from the various states.

I think it was the old someone else will do it syndrome and whilst ever there are other easier options such as club rego schemes, and those that had their cars registered, no one wanted to do the hard yards. Well the club schemes seem to be tightening up and this isn't an option for everyone. Also with the relaxing of the side exhaust outlet rule and the IM240 test allowing a reasonable engine choice, I think builders won't see it as an issue that needs their attention.
IF it's not lobbied for and just left, we might find in 5 years or so, new regs that will be so prohibitive that ICV's will be a thing of the past.
