Thats true, and a lot of the time it doesnt actually hurt, it's more a shock if you dont know its coming lmao

The car goes very well, had an argument with the wall after a couple of laps which demo'd the thermo fan, rear panhard bar, and corner of the bumper but all good! Chewy (69a) had a skid in it too, car goes great, just need to fix the above and its good to go!

Yes it's for sale, I have decided stocky racing isnt for me, the body isnt up to the hits and I have to go to work every monday! Not ashamed to say it isnt for me either (A few people I know arent into it but dont have the goolies to say it :crazy: ) :larf:
Cheaper for me to crew, I enjoy helping and the engineering side of things. And im getting to the age where I want to become debt free and purchase a house.

Will be very sad to see it go, it went fantastic and has lots of potential, came 8th in its first run, after being spun out of 3rd place.

Thanks for everyone's pointers, advise, and interest in the build.

Cheers
Clive

ps: the up side is when it sells I will be able to get into rfactor stockcars, with the extra time I will have:D

you be wasting your time bud.when we lived there couple years back i made enquiries about getting them in brisbane .with all the health ans safety crap they have it just wasnt viable to do them .you have to have insurance etc etc to race and australians arent into heavy ontact racing :larf:
ripping is racing if u dont like it i dont really care
