So many of you may know the story of my little white beetle:

And then she went through a few more changes...

And now she is tackling the next stage of her life. A track car!

Basically, i have turned my daily driver into something a little special. Unfortunately i ran out of time and was unable to slip in the later 1500 gearbox, but should run alright just the same.

The track day is out at Symonns Plains International Raceway, so if there are any locals kicking around, feel free to drop past and give Herb a little support! I will need it! The day is on Saturday the 4th (This Saturday) starting at 9am! (Us buggers have to be there at 7am)


Anyway here are the pictures! Engine... we suspect is 1916... but is listed under 1000ccto 1601cc class (It is a 1600 block) :lol: so im up against a few shitty old corrollas and a souped up Gemini... Which will shit all over me.. Anyway pictures!
