Cleaning Neil's house so it's nice when he gets home? On the other hand, perhaps you could mow his grass :lol:

Thanks Neil. I hope to run - my car's never done a 1hr race - or me for that matter. Should be fun. 8)

Hope to have the SE race car on the track for the 1 hour,planning to run in 2F but not sure if I will have time to sort out the restrictor thing.

There is also this place at Rooty Hill RSL...only 10min from E/creek.(I can feel a few rooty hill jokes coming)

Boyracer you have a capacity problem for 2F as well. The 2F class for the 1 hour races is limited to 2.5 litres. An SE is 1.84 x 1.7 = 3.1 litres.

Good to see that 2f for the MX5's will remain Turbo free!

It would be impossible to compete on that level.

CT you can split the driving like Cal and I are as I beleive you must pit for a driver change. If no driver change you must pit and at least get out of the car and then get back in.

Neil..Turbo cars have to run a 34mm restrictor so I think that would keep them pretty level with the N/A cars.
