BugIn Easter08 Oran Park Lap Dash +

fullnoise · 2007-10-05T00:05:15+00:00

Hi All, Normally us Sydney folk go to the VW Nationals at Easter. It always clashes with the BugIn. This year the Nationals will be held on 25th May. So the BugIn looks very exciting. Especially the events on Easter Saturday 22nd March at Oran Park. There's a Motorkhana on the skid pan. These are heaps of fun. There's also a lap dash on the Oran Park North circuit. That's the figure 8 using the part of the circut with the Yokohama bridge. There's also a Khanacross on the figre 8 dirt circuit. If that's not too rough I'll probably give that a go too. Oran Park will close in 2008 or 2009 so this may be the last opportunity to drive on this famous historic circuit before it becomes a housing development. The same thing happened to Amaroo Park raceway in Sydney's north west. The VW Nationals had a lap dash there but I didn't have my car finished and have always regretted not driving around the circuit that I spent my childhood at watching the racing. So Circuit Racers and Hill Climbers come along and make this the roundy-roundy racing version of the fantastic turnout at the Warwick drags. We should be able to get: Rudi's sports sedan Jak & Paul's WRX beetles 2 Vforce beetles Col Maymans new hillclimb superbug from Tamworth Heath and Christine's hillclimb beetle from the Newcastle area Greg Wards Hillclimb car Maybe Paul Zanellos white beetle can come out of retirement Vintage Veedubs Tarmac Rally car Something from the Debasi squadron Dave Sidery from Qld Who else? Bring it on! For further details go to www.nationalbugin.org.au

Thanks for the kind words blokes.

I'm so impressed with my little oval. Each time I take it out I wonder if I've pushed my luck too far for the final time.

We've got some exciting plans for Jak's VWRX. We're entering it in the NSW Dutton Rally in November. Once we've executed our plans my oval will never ever be in front of it again.

Westi, is your beast back on the road yet? I'm sure you could adapt it to roundy-roundy racing.

An Eastern Creek private practice day and a NSW Supersprint Round at Eastern Creek are both on the cards for May. Hopefully my new shocks have arrived by then so I can back to back test the old ones. I don't want to end up in the "Jak Rizzo shock absorber hall of shame". I already have a place in the drum brake hall of shame!
