G'Day You bloody mad bikers, at least the rash should heal quickly and it should'nt get infected. That dos'nt mean the condition in your head is OK though. Seriously I understand why Hawk and others are a bit nervous at this time. There are many interested readers of this forum that may not be racin...

G'Day You really have to try hard to be a bit crazier than the average bandicoot on that Lake so congratulations on the sick formula Vee routine It must have taken many mind altering substances and twisted "friends" edging you on to come up such an obcure concept as the idea of a fast Volkswagen. Ma...

G'Day Hawk and all the other racers and salt lake fans Your right mate, the forum does wax and wane don't it. I've sold the business and am managing a workshop for someone else so will not have enough time to get the bus rebuilt to transport the ute back to the lake in March. This is a real prick be...

G'Day Stove I had a similar problem as I use a Ford gearbox behind a Holden mtr. I got an OK from the scruitineers and used a Diest ballistic blanket. They make them to suit Chev bellhousings but I found it adapted easy as its just a flat blanket with tags and a hole for the clutch fork. From memory...

G'Day Thats good service Hawk, ordered on the 7th and watching it on the 12th. Wonder if Dons got his yet, or maybe you got his. Heh Coops, each time the plane went over they stopped the racing in case it fell on the track so I don't imagine there will be any chase sequence next year. I spose if the...

G'Day Guys DVD has just turned up and it is great. Good balance of cars and bloody mad bikers. Loved the shots of the grey ute at speed, you never get to hear your own motor from the spectator mound and I loved that oppotunitity. Only beef was the music sound track drowns the motor at times. Runs 80...

G'Day Blown Heh go the mighty utes. The more utes we see on the salt the better I say. How bout you put a Ford motor in it. (Sorry, in joke) Seriously the DLRA created the ute class because of all the problems you mentioned about a ute trying to fit into American based Pickup or mini/mid Pickup clas...
