Truenotch Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 Awesome. So the calendar came out for the Pro7 series today - very different to what had been anticipated: 29th - 30th Sept Teretonga NZ Champs Round 1 20th - 21st Oct Taupo (IRC) 1st - 2nd Dec Pukekohe (IRC Thunder in the Park) 2nd - 3rd Feb Hampton Downs (TRS and IRC) 9th - 10th Feb Manfeild (NZGP and NZV8s, Utes etc) NZ Champs Round 2 23rd - 24th Feb Manfeild (IRC) 30th - 31st Mar Taupo (IRC) Sounds awesome and I've been wanting to go to Teretonga for a long time now... The idea of snuggling old man southern is messing with my plans of going to Australia . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truenotch Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Yip. I'm thinking about putting them on the train and getting a local transporter to move the cars to Teretonga. Then we can grabaseat to Dunedin and race our rental cars around all weekend . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archetype Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Are you racing the MX5 on the 20th/21st? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yip, I think the MX5's will be there in full force. I'm planning to do the whole series this year, so here's hoping we start on a high! Dad has seemingly sorted the issues we were having by replacing some loom (it was overfuelling like mad), so we should be back on form for a good performance at Taupo. You coming down?

Archetype Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yeah, I'll be there. Hopefully racing, but I'll see how the next week goes with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truenotch Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Oh yeah! Negative on both. I should really sort out some beer or cash for that... forgetful. Sounds good Brent! Would be good to see you in the seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaver Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 random information, picked up a bunch of practical performance car issues in aussie last month (were in the clearance bin and are a bloody good read) and one of them has a write up of mx5s with tuning/upgrades etc (from a UK scene). havnt read it but wondered if you would be interested? may be useless mind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 We're basically at the limit of modifications for the class rules, but wouldn't hurt to have a read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truenotch Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Managed a win and two 2nd's over the weekend in Taupo - good enough results to come away with the round win! We had one dry race, a damp race and a boat race to finish the weekend. All races were close at the front and we had three different winners over the weekend - none of which were the fastest in qualifying. It should be interesting when we get back to Manfeild in December! Here's a shot from Saturday. Lap one, after starting third I got a lucky with my launch (slipping clutch = traction control) and managed to get the holeshot. My videos are uploading at the moment... Stay tuned.
