good luck mate

just out of interest it seems you have had a fair bit to do with this sort of stuff and we have seen a few have a go at the 10 in the manual , so where on the car challenge scale does this fit ,

Is it as hard as getting a low 10 in an auto ,or more like going for a 9 ,or is it getting closer to big block 7-8 sec pass effort.

It would be very close to being as hard as a 9' in a (built) auto buddy, there are many pitfalls that you have to deal with!

Best thing is go to Willowbank Raceway, gates open at 4. Go to the staging lanes and look for Falcons..

Approach the guys milling around them and introduce yourself.

Also, its gonna cost ya 20 odd bucks to get in, if your take a mate or significant other, you may as well bring long sleeves, long pants and a helmet and have a punt. Cause its costs the same as 2 adults entry to have a go.

My plan is to run FULL street trim. Mainly cause I can`t be arsed to get my ET`s out. Heh.

I like to arrive as gates open, get numbered and park till dark. Get the temps down. I usually push my car ( FPV Steves and the Bogans too, while they go off to the sh!thouse or buy a coke or w/e ) down the lanes also to keep temps down.

If you`ve never had a run, do it. If people laugh when you fail you can`t hear them with the lid on and windows up.
