How'd your car go in the end after the off? Bent suspension, new front bar? Worse? Glad you made it out in one piece man, looked scary from the footage I saw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost the passion for racing and the Typhoon, wanted to sell it. Luckily, most damage was purely cosmetic, new front bar, new rear bar, some panel beating required on the rear panels. Up front needed a new radiator, inter-cooler pipes as well as a new windscreen. Only last month I got of my arse to get the suspension looked at, to my surprise only needed a damn good wheel alignment. Got Rob to look over all thing mechanical, need new rotors, new engine mounts and new front wheel bearings. All fluids changed and fresh tank of E85. The car is back on the road and driving the way it should - once the bearings are done, even better. Every time I get back in it and take it for a spin, it puts a massive smile on my face. My passion for the car has returned, time to get back into racing. The pressure is still there to sell it, but I don't think I can anymore. Damn these cars! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are waiting on the official entrant gallery to be uploaded to the Racewars Facebook page (despite having our entrant numbers already) - they are doing a little drip feed of top cars at the moment. Edit- you can possibly get on the track for 1/8th mile "cash days" drag racing, I think on Saturday night - or mayyyyyyyybe the sprint course (but I think that is probably full too, 75 spots of which I am one) Edited 12/10/16 03:17 AM by -Stever- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No burnouts at RW though - not even powerskids down the strip as the new runway is too valuable. They are bringing in some sort of ground cover burnout pad so cars can warm tyres for the event. Doing slow laps of the Barbs track and lining up for short runs would have its merits I imagine...I'd rather do a flat out timed sprint course alone though. Also PC is much closer to Perth so it has that advantage, even so numbers were well down this year from what Toads said. My general feeling about MV and PC is dickhead levels are high, that combined with high entry cost put me off ever entering or even spectating. I'd probably enjoy it if I went but meh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably on par with the Racewars VIP? More than I can afford anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
