Rob broke all Australian records for v8 turbo's on the weekend by running a 6.49@222 and 6.5@224 at the test & tune at WSID. i spoke to Con from CV he said look for better things at this weekends Nitro Champs being held at WSID, if u get the chance all should come out. have video's of both passes, the 6.5 pass isn't the best, Billy from BK Race Engines got in the way

he will be racing it in Super Sedan/Top Sportsman. not sure if he will be taking it up to Willowbank anytime soon. Con was saying he would like to as the Willowbank track is the ultimate. i'm taking my car up for Jamboree (4.6TT Dodge Daytona), i hope the likes of Tesic and Campo make the trip up. i know Ivan went last year, hope he does also. thanks, hopefully we get the capri and corolla wagon all setup and running 100%

Rob has done a 6.1 today at the Nitro championships, unfortunately the engine blew in this car today during qualifying of his second pass. I'm sure Rob will be back bigger and better. Goodluck guys.

Na, it was something very big, unfortunately for the Crew, they packed up and left afterwards.
Walt, great to see you popping that cherry, lol. Racing starts at 9am, with Super street first then soon after is Super sedan, and so forth. Group 1 (e.g. Pro Stock and Top Fuellers) I don't think run till after lunch. Racing goes late till the night till around 11pm sometimes. Bring something very warm when the sun drops. There are chairs there, or you can sit on the grass with a blanket. Have fun Walt. |
