Default Willowbank Test and Tune - Wed 8th of July

Hey guys...

I was thinking about heading out to Willowbank on the 8th July... see what my car can run.. ive only been once before.. so i'm a bit of a n00b

Just wondering if anyone else wants to tag along?

it's mid week.. so hopefully shouldn't be as busy..

Thanks
Trent

Mid Week is the go mate, numbers are down a bit compared to Saturdays.

I will not be able to come along as I will be down at Snake Gully at that time.
Enjoy.

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.
“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.

Hmmm at some stage I will have to come up and have a go.

Might wait until my mate also has his license. He goes on the 9th.

So hopefully I'll be there for the next one.

Love to go but too much of a mission for me to do mid week. Have 300 odd kg of tools in the back of the ute that I will have nowhere to offload without driving an hr in the opposite direction of the strip
