Just curious to see how much work everyone has to get done as it's less than 3 months away.

I know of a few guys having to get a fair bit of work done. So let us know what needs to be done. eg Brad & crew🤪

We need to install new drag seat, remove the stock clutch plate and replace with a race clutch plate and some front runners. Don't know weather to put the Big Wig Wing on yet? And some practice to do 2nd gear burn outs. 😂😂

Both my engine and tranny will be totally stripped, modifications to both for more consistency,
and hopefully a test pass before Sydney.
Also need a new tow vehicle...something with air cond...still saving for that one!

Save a tremendous amount of money so my car and I can come over to Australia one time to race and meet everyone I have talked to. Mike McCarthy

Hey Mike. You dont need to bring your car over. I sure you will get a look in for guest driver of the WPVW car if you came over

Thats on the cards if Mike is up to it ..... the WPVW sports sedan would not be as quick as Mike is used to , but the offer is there ..... and he would have to learn to shift with his left hand . lol
