HAHA im guessing the numberplate on the fruit tingle was bought with a P-Plater in mind? It is awesome. You should run with P-Plates on it just to complete the plate. I ran last year on Ls :S

I'll be racing my T3 work van in the watercooled class - will be vying for slowest vehicle there, but will be having fun nonetheless!

coletrickle 路
COL LOOKERS are gonna be the new black!Brendon you have an exellent example of a COL LOOKER if you get a chance check out brendons van its very cool the bit i like the most is the 17 by my reconing diffrent shades of orange you can't pay for shit like that but you can do it yourself or get some mates to do it

And this is Westi's ride(s). If the Junka aint ready his taking his new car...
matberry 路
Thanks for the posts Mick, or should I say, Duff Man.
Westi's new ride suits him to a tee, Queenie plates and a pink shirt. Mmmmmmm, lookin good Westi, leave that black pimp ride at home and bring the new ricer. Ha

Did he die?
Physically I mean,
we all know he died from his screen appearances after the "singing".
...that made him dead to me anyhow.
trickysimon 路
Pffffft Duffman. I can beat that. GO BATMAN!
and one without the mask
Better put 1 of the car even though it wont be there..
matberry 路
Crikey, I am a dork, bring that Italian 'ricer lookalike' dude, should go OK me thinks, although I'll still whip it's ass on the 1/8th馃槀

C'mon Penrose, push! It was your suggestion to dump the clutch at 5500rpm with standard 36hp axles!
colonel mustard 路
Love it. looking forward to hearing the rat on the day Craig!
Burrelli 路
The Hoff could redeem himself by building a Col-looker and racing at Warwick. A baja with a holley fed turbo single port should do it and Kit as the tow car, with Bay watch style pit crew.馃槈
I,d be a fan.
typethreeking 路
i will be there, cant wait one week to go...

Here's a few from last year.
FROSTY 路
Hey Col,
I'm definitly in the COL LOOKER catagory.
My COL LOOKER slogan will be " I did it myself with 2nd hand parts".
I was also thinking....if a 2nd part isn't broken that makes it good quality.
Dasdubber 路
I was going to bring my other car to warwick instead of the work van but despite pleadings to Craig, he couldn't open another category for "non-vw bodied, non-vw engined bestest kick-arse car of all time":

I drive stuff like that nearly every day. I mean stuff more expensive than that LOL. Lambo LP 560-4's, Gallardo's and Murchie's. We get one come in every day not to mention just about every model of late model Porsche, Maserti's Gran Turismo and a myriad of some very salubrious AMG Mercs and M sport BM's.....
Not to mention some absolute classics like Ian Healy's wife's favourite car....... her 1968 Beetle!!!!

Went up last night to give Aaron and Bec a hand to hang and align the guards etc etc - still lots of work for them to do so I am guessing no updates until warwick is over! So thought I'd take a quick snap via the self-timer before I left last night....looking good (the car's not looking bad either).

A lot of credit to the effort so many are putting in and the quality of the cars. Well done Bec and Aaron (love the photo)!
I will be there but not with a car that goes fast (or will race)
Looking forward to a great weekend.
Thanks to fellow Kombi enthusiast (John) the number plate suits the old girl nicely
