The race meeting has been run and won.
1st: Buggy with SR20DET
2nd: Buggy with Subaru 1600cc
3rd: Buggy with 20valve
4th: Buggy with Suzuki 1300
5th: Desert Truck with VG30 twin turbo
Not a bad racemeeting. Had a 4AGTE blow an engine in a big cloud of oil smoke... and left behind a BIG puddle of oil... Surprising considering it was a fresh engine running only 10psi boost. Had a very exciting roll over and a couple of tree incidents... one with a buggy with a 20V that hit a tree with the left hand rear wheel.... yeah - that hurt! Ripped the chassis apart in a few spots and also ripped the transaxle open (Kombi 2ltr box) both front and rear! The navigators knee prints are now embedded in the dash.
I didnt run the race meeting as I we are sitting out for a while to get the $$$ together to put a 100kw in. It seriously SUCKED being an official and not racing!!!! Not something I want to make a habit out of!
Next year... next year.... next year we will be faster, louder and that means we can hit the trees even harder, roll over going faster, break gearboxes more often... thats gonna be fun!
