Jamboree
Hi All,
So who's racing at the Jamboree this year, Aug 27/28? I know you guys have Warwick now but the Jamboree was started by the VW guys and I'd hate to
see that heritage disappear.
Neil Penboss has entered but we have no one in All Motor, a class that is made for the VW's. Got to keep those Honda's and Mazda's in line! While
I don't own a VeeDub anymore I'm still a big fan. Jamboree could be a good warm up event for Warwick 
Hope to see you there.
Cheers,
Ray Box

Hi Ray, I cant make it up to race this year but would love to make it in the future, I had a brief look at your web site but I'm having trouble
determining what class i could race under.
I run rear engine full tube chassis dune buggy with a Mechanically injected 1916cc supercharged motor
"Modified compact" class does not allow for rear wheel drive to have a full tube chassis
"Extreme" class has an allowance for cars at the descretion of the promoter but i seriously doubt that i would ever be capable of running 9.99 or
quicker
"Pro Compact" class would require me to add 200+ kg of weight into my car. It is my understanding that most car in this field would be running 7-8
sec passes at 160mph plus (my car is geared to 135mph and i would be hoping one day to run a 10, these calculations are without adding weight.)
It would be great to see more VW's at your events considering the part VW have played in the past.
I know plenty of other racers in sydney and interstate that would probably have the same problems as myself.
Your feed back would be great so i can plan for future events.

Thanks for the feedback. It's a pretty easy fix actually, I'll just amend the Modified Compact rules so that VW's can run a full chassis. That's
the good thing about controlling the rules myself As it's DYO class
there are no issues.
Cheers,
Ray

Good to hear Al. We've make a change to the show-n-shine this year and we have New School Saturday (Pre 1985) and Old School Sunday (Post 1985). The
idea is to encourage some of the old school cars to get involved again on a day of their own. So for the splitty, Sunday is the day.
Cheers,
Ray

Any takers? If so, drop me an email info@jamboree.com.au

Maybe next year, my car won't be ready in time. Maybe if we talk it up now we'll get some interest for next year. It would be nice to have an all VW
event in Sydney.
Surley theres some QLD racers that would go, we are a funny bunch though.

Thanks for the generous offer Ray! It is nice to see support for the VW in all-motor...
I was planning to run at the Jambo but have been held up waiting for new valves, retainers springs etc from the USA via USPS (nearly 1 month on the
water!!!), very disappointing, sorry.
Hopefully someone will fly the flag for us!
Cheers
Tom

Hey Ray, hope all's well your end. Great to see you on the Volksie forum, and what an offer. Put 'crazy' cole trickle down he is fitting his motor
tomorrow, but please continue the trend of putting down his occupation as bum! He will call you when he's back in the big smoke no reception up here
in the hills (as you know ). thanks Ray, Matt.
Westi....if you do come up to compete, let Col know, he's super crazy you know, he reckons he has a tow car for you that will out pimp the
pimps.......bring your dinner suit and tell Stock to shower and brush his teeth, for the black limo tow car with (hopefully) back-up chicks to boot.

It's ironic that event that started as a volksy event is now going to clash with a volksy event.
In the end it's a good call on the weather. I remember one year with Dangerous there was some qualifying Saturday morning then the weather set in for
the rest of the day but Sunday was a beautiful day but racing was cancelled because the track wouldn't dry out.....frustrating
