Plohl, Call Sunbury Brakes (Mike)(03)9744 3438 and ask about REMSA 650 degree pads, great bite, no fade all day and good for daily driving as well. Mention Alan Howarth Queensland.
Cheers.

What a great day, the car ran great, still needs a bit of work on the handling side but I was really pleased with the times it achieved on it's first run :D . Thanks heaps to all who organized and volunteered to make it happen!

Cheers,

Tim

If you were the white NA car 7, well done!! Looked and sounded great and loved the way you came around turn 6 onto the main straight when running the 'Sprint' circuit!! :D

Stu, I've never really looked at my frame rails that way. I'm going out to the garage now to "have a look at them"

Damage deemed not worth fixing due overall value of the car
Panel damage and engine wont run (maybe something simple)
But owner i think is over it.... will be selling for parts

Dunno if he will be back on track with this result as his first effort.
Hopefully he will not practice his sh*t hot drifting skills on the road, but apparently the incident was due to the poor handling, and boost control, and poor throttle response of the car :roll:
