Race Car Replicas is having an open day to celebrate the opening of our new factory on the Gold Coast.

Fran Hall the founder of Race Car Replicas is flying over from the USA to attend. He is keen to meet and chat with owners, potential owners and enthusiasts alike.

We will have a large selection of vehicles on display including the first appearance of a very special RCR.

We are looking forward to seeing you there.

Date: 27th September
Time: 9am – 2pm
Location: 3/12 Telford Place, Arundel (Gold Coast)

For those that cannot attend, we will also have a large contingent of vehicles at the Cobra Nationals(Wakefield Park Raceway 1st -4th October). Fran Hall is also staying on to attend this event.

Good luck with the open day.

Hi to Fran and the crew.

You should get one up for the Noosa Classic car show Craig - also on the 27th unfortunately. Hope it goes really well!

I hope to make it Craig. Least that's the plan. :)

I want to see whats made you scarce for the past months.;)

Merv, I really enjoy the Noosa Car Show. Great location, head over to the beach for swim etc during the day. Fantastic. Just too close to the Nationals for me of late.

Les, would be great to catch up with you. Fran is a really interesting guy, would be well worth the trip just to shoot the breeze with him.

Hey Craig, love to make it but, as usual, bad timing for me! Look forward to seeing you at the Nationals and meeting Fran as well.

See you there!

Hi Craig - thanks for organising the open day today. There are certainly some mouth-watering goodies in there at the moment. The alum chassis welder at RCR is an artist!

Rebel1 09-27-2009 02:42 AM

What 750hp said.

And it was very wise to hide all the hand tools. There were some bits I fell in love with which could have easily fallen off the displays and into my boot. ;)

Extra marks to Fran for coming over to check out the Oz market.

Or is he currently wandering around Surfers enjoying the sights/sites?. :eek::)

Thanks guys, it was a great day. I will see if I can dig out some photos.

Merv and Sharon 09-27-2009 04:36 PM

Craig - the Noosa Classic Car Show was brilliant this year with lots of new vehicles and a beautiful grassed area for presentation. I am sure that next year a car r two there from RCR would be well received, if u have the time. Some other manufacturers were there and got a lot of attention from the well-heeled crowd.

Cheers,

Merv

Yep, without pictures, it never happened. %/

Wait til you see the Weber carbed 26x15" Avon shod GT40...
...or the biggest brake assembly I've ever seen on an ICV.
Oh yeah, and the Albins sequential transaxle in the same SLC...
...or the craziest Group C rear wing you're likely to see on a street car...

Lots to look at!

I don't believe it, show us proof.... ;)

Regards.

750hp 09-28-2009 07:51 AM

OK - you want proof?

Some looked a bit like this, but with much better shut lines:

Practicing my Mexican wave.... You crack me up!!

Some lovely machineary. For me though I couldn't go past the dark blue and orange GT40 Replica. California Bill must have had knots in his stomach selling that car to put his stepson through college! Very very nice. I had the cheque book ready but nobody wanted to sell it to me!:confused:

Well done to RCR for helping to cantilever the negativity of the GEC!
