So who's going? We will be heading off Fri around lunch time from Newy. Staying at the track.
Can't wait it's even more fun than drag racing:lol:
I posted my entry form today.
Let's see if I can improve on my best time from 5th last :lol: with some race tyres, spoiler and new sway bar.

Even more fun than drag racing??? Not taking away anything from the drags but going from a few seconds to well over 5 minutes and adding braking and hanging on in corners is is a mind blowing difference. Wish I could get out there.


amazeer - May 2nd, 2011 at 11:17 PM

Rose, You're going to have to make sure you get out in front of Birchall. You dont want to get stuck behind that old granny.

Hi Rose

Do you have a deep sump on that car, you will need one with the extra grip.

I was going to make comment about the beam front end, but that's like throwing sand at the beach.

Steve


HappyDaze - May 4th, 2011 at 08:48 AM

Steve, don't even THINK bad things about beam front ends........we will find out!:lol:

1303Steve - May 4th, 2011 at 11:43 AM

Hi Rose

I'm working on both of them, hopefully one will be there. I'm down to one driver as David has lost his licence for 3 months.

So if it all work out we will take the white one on Saturday and the orange one on Sunday. I want to get some miles on the orange one before I race it.

Steve


amazeer - May 4th, 2011 at 12:18 PM

Steve, plenty of miles between sydney and goulburn. A lot more than there is between Wollongong and Oran Park. By the time I got to the top of Mt Ousley I was right to go I reckon. All the oily finger prints had burnt off the exhaust, thats how you can tell if its run in.

You cant sit back on the sideline and sledge. Unless you are me.:!:


vw54 - May 4th, 2011 at 06:19 PM

Put your glasses on Birchall, they are the right way around, look at the inner guard in the background if you can see it, its the right hand guard that Rose posted a picture of you blind dope.

This guy saw the light


vw54 - May 5th, 2011 at 07:53 AM

looks like a RSJ has been welded into place for the top strut brace


bigrudi - May 5th, 2011 at 04:32 PM

How does the car know whether its going forward or backwards anyway, couldnt tell the differance in Rods car last year went just as fast backwards as it did forwards,who needs treds anyway rocks just get stuck in them.I can help u run your L bug in Steve about 15minutes should do it cheers Rudi


vw54 - May 5th, 2011 at 07:45 PM

Go Rudi


VWMA Editor - May 8th, 2011 at 09:34 AM

14 entrants two weeks out from the event? Seems we have more forum racers than the real deal. By my count all the racer chat on AVD should have easily reached 50 VWs for this event by this late stage. I guess there's still a week to go to prove me right....


HappyDaze - May 8th, 2011 at 09:49 AM

Only 14:?: What about all those who missed out last year [for variousreasons], and said that they would not miss this year:?: There wouldn't be too many who had more to do to their car than I did........and I'm an old codger! My entry is in, and I want some Beetles to play with at Wakefield Park.:yes:

Cheers, Greg


amazeer - May 8th, 2011 at 10:31 AM

15, There's one I missed putting on there. I've had plenty of people email saying they want to go. Dont know why they arent showing up in the mailbox.

I guess Club VW will have to put up the swap meet entries to cover the loss.


hellbugged - May 8th, 2011 at 05:08 PM

:( yep i'm a no show this year.....so thats 2 entrys that would normally be a certanty

just not enough $$ around to get the race car there......... was super keen on running my beetle as the alternative but sadly the panel man has not pulled through in time for that either.

sorry Chris and co. I would reccomend it to anyone thinking about it still, great value for money and well run event, a credit to those who do all the hard work to set it up

certainly hope the numbers come up and the event can continue in future years, and yes Fraser, you are always welcome to an arvo run in what ever car i'm there with.......


sander288 - May 8th, 2011 at 06:57 PM

Thats got me worried... Chris did you recieve my entry (sent via email)

Cheers

Shaun


HappyDaze - May 9th, 2011 at 06:59 AM

So who HAS entered:?: Is there a list of entries so far:?:


rose - May 9th, 2011 at 08:37 AM
