Do you reckon they would bite harder than the hoosiers? I was gonna go up to a 10 x 28 slick. The track was pretty dusty and not much vht laid down. Caltracks is a good idea. at the moment its still in full street trim complete with Amp and dvd player , power steering, and carpet in the boot !! lol

Hey mate, lookin' good!
How is the Mildura set up? Us Sth Ozzies have to go for a bit of a drive to get any type of racing action, I've been contemplating taking one of our cars to Whyalla or Mildura for a bit of fun (been far to long since I last fanged - argh)..
Scrutineering similar to AIR?

Hi carly, yes it sucks about the drive and expense just to do what all the other states take for granted !! But yes the Mildura scrutineering is pretty thorough but they are not anal about everything, and being country they are very friendly and helpfull. We will be going back at easter next year for a 2 day meet I think? and going by this years field it should be a top weekend. Let me know if you want to go and we might organise a group trip.

thanks for the feedback mate, sounds certainly worth the trip (well as long as you get to fan g your car, almost any trip is worth it - hahaha). Not sure when we'll do it, but it's getting higher on my priority list.. far too long between 1/4's for me!! lol
