Just a quick Question

Re 2wd Johnson 540 Buggies at the Off Road Champs in June

Why was'nt it restricted to U 16's

Why is On Road different ???????????

Don't Off U 16's deserve a class for themselves like in On Road.

?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????

Probably because there wasn't any 540 of any age group at the offroad titles. And rarely is even at club level.

540 hasn't been run as a class in offroad for a very long time. In off-road the begginers have little trouble starting out in Stock so a slower class simply isn't needed.

FYI - 2WD + 4WD Stock at this year's titles was won by Kyle McBride at 11 years of age.

Has nothing been learnt from the events this past week, attacking an event on-line within an hour of the entry form being posted.

I'm not speaking for ORRCA as I have nothing to do with them but as with the Interclub I'm certain you will get further by putting forward suggestions to your club's rep and encouraging them to be present at ORRCA's AGM so that you and your clubs opinions can be heard.

Look forward to what should be a great race.

Anybody who hasn't seen the Sunshine Coast track can see video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUz5DHof-Sw

I have a question for the Sunshine Coast club - would they consider running a one-off club event the sunday before the champs (30th Sept)? I don't think any other clubs would be racing that day....

Slo-MTX4- Just make sure everything on the car is right - diff is smooth, shocks have oil in them, check droop, ride height and tweak are all okay.

C Mediums would be a safe bet as far as inserts go. Ask one of the quicker guys running the same gear as you for a gear ratio and you should be set.

Aside from that, run the car at the as many of the club days up there before the meet as possible so that you can get used to it... and drive the wheels off it

I'm pretty sure I've seen Bathurst before - don't need another rerun.
