not a project per se but still pretty inspirational... http://www.speedhunters.com/2013/01/wreck-racing-low-budget-priceless-education/

serendipitous? http://www.grabone.co.nz/auckland/gt-pro-panel-and-paint

lowering the tank to gain some clearance an option?

I can confirm this is fast... my old 350z didn't compare... was awesome...

grabone voucher?

got the full rego?

about time someone did one of these - far superior to the shuttles everyone gets hard over

I thought most clamped to gutters...

yeah those on the nz car are designed for the new beetle and he'll probably be running adapters...

R15? the BRM's are 17's ideally I'd been looking for 185 45 R17's

yeah, now if I can only find tyres to fit them.... btw good to meet you on Sunday

Basis is where I got mine from... http://www.basisnz.co.nz/Products/Steering-Suspension/Wheels/WHITEWALL-FLAPS-13.aspx

^ cool write up just got my email with the discount code and this:

yeah a bit cheaper - early bird prices maybe? http://leadfoot-festival.myshopify.com/

I'm sure there are a few of us planning on going next year... I'm buying my tickets as soon as the discount code arrives

Such an awesome weekend! Huge thanks to Karl, Amy and Rod for sorting it all out! And cheers to all the other OS'ers for the great line up of cars and bike. I'm definately in for the Leadfoot festival next year.
