How did you go?

I hear one of the beetles "KILLED" its motor?

What a top weekend, the back to back days worked a treat with 90 cars for round 2 and 80 odd for round 3 on Sunday.
I was second again in my class on both days behind the clubman. I did hear the orange Beetle late on Sunday and it did sound a bit "fluffy".
One WRX backed into the wall after the Esses with some damage.
A highlight of the weekend was the trip back from the RSL to the camp up the top on Sat night in a huge bus, would have got 4th place outright had he run the Esses again the next day!!!!!

so thats what was on? cause we followed ben durries orange bug back from there almost all the way

Ben's car is red n white.

I've seen video of the WRX, was a fair bit of damage, the concrete walls dont muck around.
Did you go and associate with the WSCC dickheads?
What happened about only getting 3 runs? Sup regs say there is a minimum of 4. They let all those non registered cars run at the expense of the championship. Bet that wont go down very well in the stewards report and the next state council meeting.

I'm hoping to get down to the April 10 in Canberra. Just so I can get to know who is who before our round in May.... that is if I can get a COC and get our regs approved. Gonna be a bitchfight because we wont let the karts run.
