I actually spoke to him today and yesterday, he's here in South Australia running in the 2005 Improved production nationals, we helped him find a diff after he banged one.

Well he was down here for the island magic as well , he had a mixed weekend with firstly the $5g new zealand built w series starting to develop banging noises on the saturday . Then having to change over to a stock ratio w series and struggle with the fact that those ratios are never going to be close at the island . Then on sundays race a few cars spun out causing , the red rx7 i thought the cause of this as i spotted it going passed three people griding the cars up with a broken lower control arm . I couldn't believe they didn't pick that as the wheel was floating about in the guard space , also how the driver didn't pick it as well . This causes Leigh to go off the track , the intercooler top pipe to cracked but he was still able to get a few places back .
Have a vid of the car going down the straight somewhere , first 3s powered car that i have ever seen with any power at the island . Well maybe first 3s power car i have ever seen last more than a few laps at any circuit .
What you need his contact details for Terry ? If it's urgent i can get them from the club .
