Its on again on March 21st to 25th at LAKE GAIRDNER in SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
Ratmuller Racing will be competing with a minimum 3 vehicles this year including a 1957 Kombi Panel running a 2.9 TYpe4 motor
The world 36hp Challenge record is up for grabs at
73.49 mph so look out for the team to bring the record downunder.

Thanks for the post Bill. Be nice if a few more Volksies could venture out this year, good luck to Steve and the Ratmuller crew.

I hope the salt lakes don't fill with water before they get there - that would slow them up.

What no country buggy records to be broken????
imagine how fast with the windscreen down... lol

A Very Long way to go Bill......

If it fills with water Jeff.... No Racing...

the water has to evaporate....

They have the same problems over at Bonneville in the USA...

although it takes them a while to get the track ready in the USA...
