Yes. The more VW motorsport the better. After last weekend I'm still waiting on my call from Red Bull F1 to partner Mark Weber next year

I can't believe this is even a question - OF COURSE there should be another SuperSprint at the Nats next year !!!
Two big  from me - can't believe I almost didn't go this year -

Of course it should be run again next year. Even freezing as a spectator, it was one of the best days I have had in a long time.
And you never know, if my wife dies before then, I could run my bug. lol.

Given enough notice a full field of vw,s could be lined up to race,
that would be spectacular

yeah agreed there Paul............but if i have my way, you won't
have a car to run  ........still waiting for the test drive before
the deposit goes down!
i'll be taking at least 2 cars NEXT YEAR when it is ON AGAIN....i'm more motivated than ever before and will commence building a new BJ/IRS pan for
myself this weekend....
........i would gladly pay the $$ or more again, you don't even want to know how much per lap it was this time around 
for sure i would make the time to stop at the show and shine next year, but to be honest, without the racing, there is no chance of me being there
(not that anyone could give a hoot anyways)

Hi
Damian I thought you had gone all strut crazy after having a run in Rods car, I guess Jeff the onion threatened to chuck you in the creek if you
talked about strut cars.
As for running more events, our biggest issue is getting more of our club members up to speed as CAMS qualified officials, we had to borrow some from
Chris's other club Wollongong Sorting Car Club and the flaggies from our club didn't have a break all day except for a short one at lunch.
I think Wakefield would be really nice at a warmer time of year.
Steve

volkswagens love the cold don't forget.......one of the reasons the VW spectacular is also run in the colder months
.......confession time.....struts are cool, it's just that they come attached to bulbus overweight beetles

We should definantly have 2 a year Steve, the drag guys have 2 events a year. What about joining up the second one with the Mini Car Club, or even
advertising the event with the Porsche Club of NSW?

A few people are already talking and looking at the viability of a 2 day, 3 discipline + more event at Wakefield/Goulburn Showground.

We could do it a bit like the Dutton Rally. We had a Slalom down 3/4 of the front straight, then turn off towards the fish hook, then go over & do
the hill climb, then the next day do the supersprint.
It's very doable

Well, I'll be working on the new project for a few hours once a week, I'm aiming for 2013
Got the body on an IRS/Bajjoint 'pan today (with squareback bits in the back) chucked in a superbug 'box & an adjustable beam that I had laying
around the house... oh, and some 15x7 steelies with 195s that were gathering dust... think I need more offset though?

What about the tamworth Track ?
it would be cheap enough and well suited for a supersprint
and North of Sydney
