Default F1 racing in adelaide LET'S GET IT HAPPENING

Hi everyone
Thought I would start this thread to see what real interest there is in f1racing in adelaide.
It's such a fun class and needs a bit of a push.
It's growing so big interstate with normal racing a teams racing,
So what does SA think ?????

I'll be in for sure! I'd be willing to travel to Adelaide every couple of weeks for a drive.

Although I am not involved in any on road stuff i think this would a great class to have anywhere(especially Adelaide)...it seems to making a big comeback and the thought of an f1 racing scene is something i would love to see!
Best of luck fellas.

I'm heading down to HH on saturday for the day to do some driving/testing on what was the SA Title layout. Only got the F113 going the Friday of the titles so haven't even tried a thing apart from the box setup. Be good to have some other drivers there.

Encouraging F1 in SA is a great idea. Let me know if there's anything we at RC Formula1 can do to help.

Wow. That looks really good considering the F113 bodies aren't exactly scale. What wheels and rubber are they?
