Thanks Andrew - I dont see many of the racers (in pics on this forum) with hardtops and I dont think it would be a prob racing open top personally. I still wouldn't want my head sticking out the top though!

Anyway unless I have big issues at the office I'll be there for a look see.

Thanks

I'm 180cm tall and run a hardtop on my race car. If I was any taller at all, I couldn't. My seat is on 10mm think rails and straight on the floor too. Car 44 if you are out there on this day.

It's a goer alright. I'll call Brian and find out what time we need to be there. No money has been put on my credit card yet either.

Unfortunately I can't get the morning off :(

On the upside I have someone coming to look at my race car on Saturday morning. Fingers crossed I'll be able to sell it and then I can begin the search for my MX5 race car :D

Have a good day tomorrow, hopefully I'll catch up with some more of you guys soon.

What a wonderful day. Got plenty of laps. Took some passengers for laps. Dad, Rhys and Ash all did laps in my car and I had time to play with setup for the V8 Supercar support race nevt month. I also did some laps in Ash's car and dad's Audi S3. Can't wait to see Rhys's photos. :D

It was a great day I did about 100km on track really worn in my new T1R's now. Very interesting running with the race cars passing you under brakes and in corners had to keep one eye on the mirrors all the time.
Great day thanks,

Les
