A blog with some pics of my car and pics from some of the events ive been to.

Doing my OLT on friday so should have my CAMS PCC licence very soon. Keen to do a IPRA race next year

Not alot changed to the car have had a new Crown Wheel and Pinion put in blwe my other one up at Ringwood Hillclimb, Gone from button style clutch to heavy duty was too harsh for the hillclimbs ive been doing had problems with it over heating. Have custom made Aliminium catch, new pitman arm, new gearbox crossmember mount and New AVO rear shocks had green TRD the AVO are 100% better.

Car hasn't been started for over a year now. Have had a bit of bad luck on the injury side of things with a dislocated shoulder 2 times and recently had ankle surgery.
Have done some work on the car converted the rear end from drum do disc. Also made up some lower traction control brackets welded to the diff and made up an adjustable shock mount position with 3 locations standard, 20mm higher and a further 20mm as I've had problems with running out of shock length and picking up the inside wheel on tight corners.
Renewing my cams licence very soon and when my ankle recovers I will be getting back on track as soon as possible.

Hey Stouty

Don't know if you remember me - my name is Nat, I ran a black s13 at Ringwood and KEP?

Are you back in NSW? Last we spoke you were heading to Victoria. I'm in an ae86 now, almost same colour as your T18, would be cool to run together again!

[stouty]

Hey mate yeah I remember you. I was looking at your car in the ride threads the other day wondering who owned it, it's super clean. Yeah I'm in NSW ended up getting a pretty good job so I didn't move down to Victoria. I'm so keen to run it agin got a few things I have to do first need to put in a brake bias adjuster and rego my trailer again so going to be a little while but hopefully get to a couple hill climbs this year. You doing the tri series challenge this yr?

[Course_Out]

Awesome! Keen as!

Yeah ran Tri Series last year but missed 2 rounds and got 3rd in Type 2 U2L. Have run the Kempsey round so far this year and will hopefully compete at the other 3. You definitely need to get sorted for KEP!

Car was fired up for the first time in two years last week fired up no worries the joys of avgas I guess. Have relocated battery to the rear passenger side, plumbed in the bias adjuster for rear disc conversion now just need to get a new trailer and I'll be back in action. Been a few years but I've got the itch again finally so will be back into it hopefully next year to do the NSW hillclimb series
