ARC forum battle - calder park march 2012

[jamesatfish]

From what I have understood I think we need a minimum of 4 cars for the motorsport categories, and a maximum of 10.

For the 'show & shine' category we need up to 20 cars, but I'm not clear if there is a minimum entry. It looks like the show & shine is on the Sunday so the same cars that have entered the motorsport categories can be washed and put on display the next day if there aren't sufficient numbers.

Who's interested in joining a VWW team? I'm up for the Time Attack, 1-Lap Dash and Gymkhana if I enter the Polo.

The other black Astra is mine

Its the daily for the missus, and usually kept extremely clean. Happy to enter the Polo in the show n shine to represent VWwA aswell if you need any extra numbers (since it still needs a few minor mechanical repairs before hitting the track again, hence the show n shine only)

A small example of the competition. Euro's, JDM, Aussie muscle, exotics, drag machines, track hacks, hot hatches, time attack entrants, back yard mechanics and forum enthusiasts in general.

Representing Supra forums Danny's car is indeed a clean example.


Think your car could keep up with this bad boy? Grandma spec AE86 entering for some fun and to represent AE86 Driving Club.


Kyne’s Golf GTI is a well thought out machine, made to look aggressive and go when needed.


Stock Astra? Think again, 280kw at the wheels and he's not finished yet!


This Aussie muscle car might have dominated the drag strip with 480rwkw but has chosen to enter the show'n'shine. Drag competitors can let out a sigh of relief.


2.5L conversion, Will shall fly the flag for JDMST in the time attack category. Model in photo is Bettina Banks for those wondering. Google it!


This Vr4 started life as a grocery car and is now Australia's fastest road legal Galant.


You just got beat..By a Wagon! fullBOOST and Warren will be doing what they do best; the 1/4 mile


Nope, this isn’t your everyday CE Lancer GLi with a knock off Evo bodykit. Luke’s cars is the real deal!
Last year it won the Victorian Hillclimb championship (4wd Sedan class).


Looks like a hot hatch battle is emerging in the FWD class for time attack. Rory has thrown his hat in the ring for OPELAUS with a very neat Astra VXR Nurburgring Editions.

Show'n'shiney! Exterior has a custom full respray in Morpheus purple with custom airbrushed TME decals in carbon fibre & real flames, carbon fibre wing. Interior is also a custom 4 seater recaro conversion with full retrim in German yellow custard leather.

Jason being a seasoned time attack entrant is no stranger to the tarmac, competing in this years World Time Attack Clubsprint class setting a 1:43.0420 lap.


Carbon tax!


Open class entrant Nik Kalis. This well sorted car will be great to watch at the time attack discipline.


Micheal or better known as SP BLING on Oz Mazda owner steps up to represent his forum.


Bought for a measly $1200, John’s Track Hack AW11 has spent most of 2011 in the garage being brought back to life. He is the first to admit to Forum battle that it isn’t going to win any Show and Shine awards. And it never will!


A regular track day addict, a Circuit Club organizer and an Advan Neova Cup Competitor, Narada has been to Wakefield ( 2hr South west of Sydney) more then most.


The first to enter forum battle was Darrin who wsa bitten by the track day bug has constantly been developing his Evo X.

Forum Battle Update

Good news forum users. Struggling to decide whether to track your car or enter it in the show’n’shine? Why not do both! Any one competing in the Time attack, Rally, drags or Gymkhana will automatically gain free entry into the Show & Shine!

Plus competitors get to nominate 2 Pit Crew members who will gain entry to the event for $10 a day. As car nuts we know the benefits of having a spare pair of hands around when working on cars. Whether we were doing an engine conversion, swapping a gearbox or simply bleeding brakes the job was made easier and more fun with mates. So bring 2 of your best mates down and even if they don’t know how to change a tyre at least you’ll have somebody cheering you on .



Sup regs have been updated and finalised, a copy can be found here: http://www.rally.com.au/images/stori..._SR_030112.pdf
