Can someone tell me how I go about becoming a member? I tried to download the membership form from the website however it says you must be authorised to access it???

Have a great day. Hope the weather clears for you.

Glad you enjoyed the race meet.

We will have membership forms at Race Control

. Just come and see us next time you race.

Try this link for the membership form.

Local suppliers don't stock the 416. I got mine from Champ as well but they have been out of stock for ages. Nick got his from speedtechrc, their price was good too

A big thanks to Den, Steve & Amy for their great help in removing the tonne of water from the track. I got to the track at around 10:30 and the whole right side was under about 50mm of water. A few hours later and the track was 99% dry.

See you all bright and early on Sunday.

Will need a few volunteers to help blow down the track in the morning.

Dude, you can't call your 416 Tammy. It's just not right. Although, you could call your RDX Coral.

The BMI can be called Betty.

Willard Snr (sorry Dave) is a non starter, however Willard Jnr might be a show.
I have some 40 rears but i am out of 37/38's. I'll bring my truer as well.

Hey I bought 55T Spur gears and 25 Pinion gears today but when i opened the car up and put them in, it looks like the 55t Spur and 25 Pinions dont touch. Am i missing something here?
