the Sport Compact guys are very serious when it comes to racing, guys like GAS, PAC, Rayglass really pushing the envelope with their cars. seeing the likes of Campo and Gauci for me are worth the admission alone. hopefully i will be able to get some good video, the worst thing about racing is u get to miss alot of the good bits |

Mark Dallacqua has 1 for sale also, it's $1000 but the floor has been taken out at the back as it was going to be a 3/4 chassis car. |

Super sticky track and heaps of 7 second passes...
The smell of E85 was much stronger than other events... I assume many are using it...Making more usable power.. Ambient temps where rather low too...

saw Michael's EB, well done on the 10.5 very impressive run, shocked a few of us. track was very sticky, we were spewing didn't get a run. had my box been done or my other brother's not been in the Corolla we would have threw it in. shouldn't be out for too long, maybe 1-2 weeks. heaps of people have made the change to E85 smelt like a candy factory with all the methanol and E85 in the air run of the meet, Joe Gauci's MSB Cortina with a 7.37@199 the MSB Capri we are going to build, just became the MSB Cortina, that car is absolutely crazy |
