    I should have posted here, a link to last weekends race below:

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=...&v=eQgv7fKPtFU

    It is the Junior Stinger class from Brighton Speedway Sat Aug 20h. The majority of the cars are Grand Prix's so the racing is very close. The class is limited to V6 FWD North American cars. Started inside 2nd row and finished 7th in a 12 lap. It's a 1/3 mile circuit.

    No mods to the engine, staggered the tires, STB's and removed the front sway bar.

    Will be repairing the exhaust and routing through the factory location. The hanger torn off and pipe folded in half during the race significantly reduced the power.

    Cheers Jim

    Wrapped up the season Friday night lucky draw I guess, had pole in the heat race for a win and a repeat for the final.

    Took the car to Picton Sat for the Arm Drop Drags, finished with a best time of 15.5. The only engine mods were to cut off the resonator and mufflers.

    On to the repair/build season and waiting for spring. I'll try and post the final race later this week.


    Cheers Jim

    Sweet. I wanted to dirt track my old GP but we don't have a V6 class local so I never did it.

    New season is close to starting, test and tune at Brighton is Apr 22/23. Have a "B" car this year a 2003 Monte Carlo. I expect it to weigh a lot less than the GP once all the rust is knock out of the body.

    It's been a while, last race of this season for me was planning on having the GP back but that won't happen. Looks like track days and possibly Chump Car for next season.
