Damned fine question that?

Are we meeting at KMart again? or something different like in the service road over at Macca's.

How many interested?

I spoke to Chopper on Sunday and he is still going.
He has no internet at the moment.
Look out for the flying EL.

Ok Guys,

Got a reply from Heathcote this morning to a few of my questions. Everything is still all on for the weekend! They are safe from fires and have no issues up there at all.

Gates open at 9am

Racing from 11am until 4pm.

Its an extra $5 if you want a passenger in your car to race, and im pretty sure that means they can also be a 2nd driver. This money is payable at Scrutineering.

REMEMBER!!! THERE IS NO ATM OR EFTPOS THERE, YOU NEED TO TAKE CASH!!!

Prices

Racing: $50-

Spectators
Adult: $15-
Children: U16 Free

Best bet would be to get cash out in Melbourne and take up, ATM's can be a bit scarce up that way! LOL. Better to have too much than not enough as well!

Steve, What do they say the SSS Pulsars do down the 1/4? Mid 15's? Are they Turbo?

I hope you take out as much weight as possible and try and get yourself some good times!

Wings are off, so flying is out. Still have no home internet, so I just use the libraray when I'm in Melbourne.

As long as it doesn't rain and I can drive home, I'll be fine. Hopefully I'll be running faster than Makka too!

Matt its running an SR20DE, so no turbo. There were no factory SSS with turbo, but the SR20DET drops basically straight in i believe, there are several guys from the Pulsar forum with custom turbo SSS. The only factory Pulsar with a Turbo was the N14 GTiRs, which are two door.

It weights about the same as an LC/J 6 cylinder with 104kw, so should be good for a low 16 or high 15. I will be running it in full street trim, theres not really much to remove for a weight. Will be more just a chance to see what it can do. :)

I'd Offer, but it would be just as easy for you to drive home than all the way back to the outer east of Melbourne! LOL. And also i got no parking on my shitty arse dirt road that i live on! LOL.

I Picked up my trailer for MRLXSS tonight! Tomorrow the ute gets its towing springs and will all get loaded up and ready! Hopefully i can get a chance to give the car a polish as well!

Fingers crossed its not too busy now that Calder canceled their Test and Tune for Saturday. My tip is get to the track as early as possible, and get as many runs as you can in Early. From what people tell me, by mid afternoon, if its busy it might be a while in between runs! But if your scrutineered and ready to race at 11, I'll reckon you'd have had 8 runs before lunch easily! (Well i hope so anyway!)
