New Cars

So It has been way to long since the last race, but in the process i have sold the Excel and bought a Nissan Pulsar SSS. This is due to university not allowing much funds. First event for the Pulsar is the 20th at Powrana Khanacross for round 5. I will update the blog with the results after the event so stay tuned.



Also in this long break a group of Engineering students, Alan How and myself have finished building a BMW E30 track car. This will be raced next year in the TAS Super Series, and various club events. If you are after photos of the build drop me an email and I have a large photo collection. This car was built in a period of 5 months mostly on Tuesday nights after uni.

1st Outright at MSCT Khanacross

In muddy conditions the Excel once again rose. Finishing 1st outright in a field of 45 people. The Excel enjoyed the slippery conditions and i had a smile from ear to ear. The overall lead was 43 seconds in front of 2nd outright which i was really happy about. Can't wait till the next event.

2010

This blog hasn't been updated for a long time due to time restraints but I have still been competing when funds and time is allowed. Results have been good so far this year too. I will fill you in on the events.


To start of the year I entered the 500CC Khanacross on the 7th February, this event only permits radial tyres and i managed to win the event outright from a field of 21.

Next event was round 2 of the 500CC Khanacross and i made a big mistake in this by not completely stopping in the garage which means i got the slowest time +5seconds. Before I made the mistake I was leading but ended up finishing 12th Outright

My last event I competed in was the Blacktrack gravel hillclimb and I suprised myself when a result of 4th outright came my way. This was good considering the level of competition was high. and most of the cars entering were welll prepared.

Two great results to finish of the year.

The year has come to an end and the car once again prooved its worhty by gaining a 7th Outright at MSCT Gravel hillclimb in retreat area and a 2nd Outright at MSCT Khanacross. The khanacross result was special because it was acheived on standard road tyres.
