[QUOTE=GenReaper;4329011]Only gripe i had was the lack of transponders and having to swap transponders between my two cars during the night, was a bit much IMO, can you please buy some more so some of us can buy them off you so next time we race it wont be a madhouse. Would have been nice to get the 20 min mains like was organised but i know we fell behind the 8 ball during the day and time was of the essence.

Brad thanks for the constructive critisison, biggest problem is HEI International. Thats right kids the company who bring us ozzies Proline will not stock these transponders in Australia. We put an order in and it takes 3 to 6 months for them to get them in.

but hay its no different to when SDMCC had the old transponder system they only had 2 sets of 10 so you had to change the transponder every race

But we are waiting on another shippment so we will be fine before you guys come back down.

Dean Michalik and others came around and saw Paul’s car off to the side, knowing what was going on they stopped and waited for Paul to resume racing before trying to pass him.
Like I said I didn’t see it only heard about it but if this is the case it is a fantastic display of sportsmanship! Full Cred to Dean and the others.

Can anyone validate this story???

I heard the same story myles but I think some one said it was bruce that told the guy to go and procreate with himself

Just a quick question guys ........ I loaned my only two glow igniters to some adelaide drivers (I hope jarrod knows there names) any chance they were taken back to adelaide by mistake?

It would be nice to get them back

But they are my back up igniters

Bruce may well have let fly as well but I know that Paul did because I saw him turn around and scream at the dude. I was watching him, thats why I didnt see and was unaware of what was going on on the track with his car and other drivers

Yeah Mike thats the format, but i wanted all the truck rounds if you didnt mind, i sent you a PM with my email if you got the time to send them, thanks heaps.

If your at the track in the near future see if my red chair is under the pit table near the cable spool table. If so maybe stick it in the transportable building and i can collect it next time, unless Myles wants to do the deed in the near future while he is up there

No dramas either way, it aint made of gold

the funny thing is immediately afterwards one of the whyalla guys approached me and said "was that knob head one of your guys?"
i replied, no, hes from whyalla

tell him ill give him 2x more cartons of piss if he can get our morphett vale rostrum to wobble.

his arms will drop off before our rostrum shakes, that thing is built hard core

it brought new meaning to the term "rockin racing"

Lol...this shows my frustration..was working on this engine for about 2 hours and never got it running. I since realized i had a big crack in my crank case. I couldn't see it in the dark.
