I'm thinking P car SMT on the way up, lunch & look at the paddock then I'd probably just hit the Hume on the way home.

I'm heading up on Saturday. I'd like to make the most of the day and catch the first GT3 Cup session. Do you have a route that gets there before 9am?

That article says it IS on at EC in July. Confusing!

I'm looking for anyone to join me on the run to Winton tomorrow.  The plan is to leave Ashwood at 5 am and arrive at Winton by about 8:30.  The route will be fairly direct heading north east along Maroondah Highway to Alexandra and then via Bonnie Doon for the last leg north to Winton.  Eildon-Jamieson Road can wait for a SMT on another day.

 

Put your hand up now to nominate a meet point along the way.

Good looking bit of kit. Bet they sound great.

Sure were, they're  mostly all new builds.  The sounds varied, you can judge for yourself.

Anyone see the Speedweek coverage of the IROCS on Sunday?

Best bit of acting driving I've seen since the 2 Litre Touring Cars debut race back at Eastern Creek all those years ago.

Once they get a dozen or more cars out there maybe they'll race for real.

PS Great pics Harvs.

That's sooo unkind!

This year its looking good for 12 cars plus 944's at some of the races.

6 rounds with races in SA, Vic, NSW and Qld.

The cars sound great and they go like a cut cat.  Astonishing for their age. Only 3 seconds off the front runners in TCM at the Island.

As for doing what HQ's are said to have done ... most cars are already too far gone and are being modified to the rules or otherwise they're sheds that are getting a second life. have yet to hear of someone taking a good G series rod car and going the butcher. 

Not sure 12-15 cars will drive up prices though.

The build quality and prep of theses cars is outstanding! The SA based cars are setting the standard here. 

More cars will mean more racing. Come and have a look.
