Now that Paul Stubber has been eliminated by the powers to be. I'll be placing my money on Jack Elsegood in the big thumping GTHO in the Historic class!
Can't wait.

St00ge · 24 Oct 2005, 02:12 (Ref:1441702)

The Camaro will still be running but with a different driver so still could win

TSR · 24 Oct 2005, 02:53 (Ref:1441721)

Can not wait for the weekend, can anybody tell me if Moffat 78 XC Cobra will be threre on display.

kramer · 24 Oct 2005, 03:04 (Ref:1441726)

I'll be there - just look for the old car perve.

Kramer

johnh875 · 24 Oct 2005, 05:38 (Ref:1441770)

I see on the Eastern Creek website there is no camping at the track - what is the best alternative?

Razor · 24 Oct 2005, 06:24 (Ref:1441787)

Glenn and Bo Seton and Jason Richards will be driving there

Gav56 · 24 Oct 2005, 06:24 (Ref:1441788)

I've read that Jason Richards will be driving the Camaro at the final round.

Group'C' · 24 Oct 2005, 06:41 (Ref:1441795)

Glenn Seton driving Bo's Capri, should be good to see how he goes against Steve Land (should imagine he would be running) in the similar car ?

David Towe · 24 Oct 2005, 06:53 (Ref:1441801)

In the Group A/C combined races there are 6 Toranas, 3 Skylines, a couple of Celicas Corollas and Geminis, 4 Commodores, a Mustang, my ex JPS BMW 635 and a few others I can't remember at the moment. It will be fun to race in and a spectacle not to be missed. 48 Group NC cars as well.

David with regard to your ex JPS BMW why no JPS signage.I noticed the ex HDT cars at the Creek today all ran with theirs.

Easy, the signage was removed for the last round of the Touring Car Challenge and would again have been removed for next weekend at Wakefield TCC round and I've tipped every cent (and a few the wife doesn't know about) into the engines of the 635 and the M3. The gold signage gets a little expensive to keep applying and removing.
Did you know that the JPS logo was never surrounded by the wreath on my car? So the signage that is on it was wrong when I bought it.
Just let me get over the engine bills and I'll get it right next time.
You probably noticed the car was a little off the pace, well I can report the tyres had gone off, in fact last night after the meeting the team celebrated the "coming of age" of the tyres they were that old and hard.

I had a great weekend and consider it to have been an honour to have driven the car in anger now. We still have a few issues to get over such as a charging problem, and a seat position problem (it's a little uncomfortable with your head tipped to the right permanently because of the roll cage) but apart from that I was happy. In the dry it was much better and with a few more laps under the belt it would be a lot closer to the pointy end.

Monaro · 31 Oct 2005, 12:21 (Ref:1448315)

Thanks for that David.Why was the car on the end of the tow rope??

Alternator failed and no warning light was on, with the requirement to run headlights as well as wipers and fuel pumps the battery couldn't keep up.
We were late out for the 2nd race while we were stealing the battery from my tow vehicle and pushed it from garage one to the dummy grid to preserve as much power as possible. New alternator and warning light fitted today, no problem now.

Hi everybody.
all the crew of the Karadimas/ kirkham falcon had a great time. And would like to pass on their thanks to the spectators who turned up on such a dreadful wet day to watch.
Standing in pit lane watching the activity both on and off the track, with the enthusiastic spectators photoing everything in sight, flocking around the cars and crew was an experience that the teams young crew had never had before
and was a delight to watch. and the noise generated by the crowd in the grandstand as Jason and phil tried to outdrag each other down the straight during the race 1 , well, what can one say!!
Thanks are due to Muscle Car Magazine for promoting the day, and if the car comes back from overseas, (which is unlikely) the team may be pursuaded to run it once more, but that is it for the White XE falcon.

miata · 1 Nov 2005, 04:11 (Ref:1449019)

Rumdog, I think Gruncle will need to make sure his passport is up to date. I know I'm looking forward to shopping in New York and a few of the other 50 states plus Mexico and Canada. Oh that is if they let me carry their bags.

Miata I hear that gruncle is looking forward to catching up with his old yankee racing mates, and he has been heard to mutter something about running at snetterton in a tintop if he makes it as far as england

miata · 1 Nov 2005, 06:41 (Ref:1449058)

Yes I think that Gruncle will be showing the boys around some of his the old haunts from his youth. Don't know if they will be able to keep up with him!
He will certainly deserve a good break when he has finished sorting through all the chaos that has been thrust upon the team.

racer69 · 24 Oct 2005, 10:10 (Ref:1441946)

I'll be there, it has popped up rather quick.

Anyone know what the turnout will be like for the F5000/CanAm demonstration?

Will Glenn be driving Bo's Group Nc Capri, or the old Group C car?

Grimace · 24 Oct 2005, 10:30 (Ref:1441959)

IMPORTANT! will the organisers have a professional film crew to do a DVD of all these legendry cars and drivers in action!!!!!!!!-

SURELY THEY WILL-
