2009 Muscle Car Masters

David Towe · 25 Aug 2009, 09:35 (Ref:2527777)

48 entries for Groups A and C. I believe we'll have a split race (Group A only and a separate race for Group C only) again this year on the Saturday afternoon. Sorry I don't have other info on other categories. 48 entries will probably mean 46 turn up, that's going to be a great sight. Now all I've got to do is order the rain and I'll be happy.

Hi David is the white Xe falcon racing or has he put it in moth balls as a couple years ago in the wet it was a good tussle with the Brock hatch back

Go Hard or Go Home

I will be there helping DrBob for the weekend. It looks like I will be looking after the BMW. :-):-)

Bullett · 25 Aug 2009, 11:05 (Ref:2527831)

Great to see, Anyone got a A/C entry list?

alfacors · 25 Aug 2009, 13:07 (Ref:2527912)

See you there David! Hopefully you have better luck than last time I saw the car at the Grand Finale!

Hi Grant, if you're refering to the Nick Karadimis owned Falcon he had problems with proving the history of the car and was told not to come back with it.
I don't have an entry list but count on the usual suspects as well as the return of Godzilla!!! Terry Ashwood is debuting the rebuilt (again) Winfiled Nissan GTR. I believe DrBob will have possibly 3 enbtries including Seton in either the M3 or the Sierra (looks like we're racing for second place again) perhaps MtPanorama can shed some light on this. Billl Cutler in the Schntzer M3 and Adrian Brady in the 635 as well. I think the Listering Sierra now owned by George Nittis is also running there.
Cheers
David

Thanks alfa, we've done a lot of work to prevent that happening again, to the point where we haven't finished lower than second outright in 6 races so far this year. By the way, I'm under no delusions, i'd be very happy to finish in the top 5 at MCM, it's a quality field.

I think Glenn will be in the M3. 1 or maybe 2 ANZ sierras and hopefully the Scotty Taylor GPC commodore.

David Towe · 25 Aug 2009, 14:13 (Ref:2527962)

Seton in an M3, Godzilla returns, looks like we're all racing for third not second as I suggested earlier.

Pro Racer · 25 Aug 2009, 15:51 (Ref:2528022)

i'll be out there, love this event.

nkr · 25 Aug 2009, 23:15 (Ref:2528233)

hi david
your misinformed i was not told anything like that it seems your the same as the rest and have a case of foot in mouth

the car has been prooven beyond dougth but its in the legal system for the treatment i got from the people up there
you off all should know better to ask and be sure to keep to facts not fiction
cheers nick

mullie79 · 26 Aug 2009, 00:10 (Ref:2528253)

Hi David
I am confused how car a car be legal for one race then not another as I have seen it in group a/c races in the past ??

drbob · 26 Aug 2009, 01:24 (Ref:2528283)

Seton - M3
Dubois - Moffat/ Eggengerger ANZ Sierra RS500
drbob - Taylor/Kennedy Gp C Commodore if ready to race or Rouse/ Moffat ANZ Sierra RS500

Hot laps
Rouse/ Moffat Sierra or Gp C Commodore
Ryan/ Storah (Firesafe)Gp C RX7

mullie79 · 26 Aug 2009, 01:46 (Ref:2528288)

DAVID PATERSON · 26 Aug 2009, 04:03 (Ref:2528303)

Sadly, my Bob Holden Group A Corolla is a long, long way from being ready, so I will be there for one last run in my Group Nc Torana.

Hi Nick, sorry if I got it wrong, but that's the way I heard it. Seeing as you haven't been back with us for such a long time I thought that confirmed the point. If it's been "proven beyond doubt" I presume you've got an historic log book and will be back with us soon, great news! I look forward to seeing you again.
Regards
David

PS. I can't type, "Listering" should obviously have been "Listerine". Ohh, look at the time, got to go and have my fingers surgically straightened.

**GTRMagic** · 26 Aug 2009, 05:31 (Ref:2528317)

Nice contribution to the BMW M3 piece in AA this week too Mr Towe

Thanks for the info, I'll have to buy AA tomorrow and have a look

STEVO · 26 Aug 2009, 11:23 (Ref:2528478)

Is Seton only racing the BMW?

Or will he have his Ford Capri there too?

David Towe · 26 Aug 2009, 12:03 (Ref:2528502)

Any help Dr.Bob?

But Nick, if you got the Historic log book it would silence the doubters and make the car worth 5 times what it is without one.

It is really really refreshing to hear that opinion Nick. In the last couple of years it has seemed many people involved in old race cars are in it for the buck, not the passion.
