Hi All


For those who run the twin cam models, do you run a oil filter catch can ?

Thanks

Running my new car for the first time at Lakeside on Sunday!!! Woohoo.

It was 7 seconds per lap faster than my old X2 at QR so hopefully it will be a bit faster at Lakeside as well!!!

F1 Driver

Don't know if I'm crazy, but I have been considering having a crack of this if my karting callandar permits.
I've heard the single cam is the go? Better than twin cam??
Are there rules and regulations somewhere?

Any links would be tops.

Hi Adam,

Hope you come join us! its cheap and fun and as competative as you want it to be.
Rules are up on the trackattack.com.au website, check there.

there will be circuit racing on the 17 at QR if you wanna come talk to myself or some other drivers, the manager of the series as well will be there no doubt so any further questions you can ask him
As for single vs twin, the single motors are stronger, power is about the same, twins have 1-2 hp more apparently... but they have 500 rpm more before cutout, however at that point your loosing power

We just have it as stock, plummed back into the intake.
if you run one you need both feeds into a can, and then to vent it.

Adam why would you be crazy? 65.4 sec lap around Lakeside is not to shabby in a low budget race car (around $6,000) or any car for that matter, considering the racing series swifts couldn't manage those times on semi slicks, lsd, race suspension ect and their around $40,000.
Clean close racing is what it's about with out blowing the budget.
Should have 15 plus cars for the QR meet on the 17th and then back to Lakeside for a full 20 car grid.
See you boys there.

I am looking at having a crack at this this my dad... he is recently retired and needs something to distract him lol Plus I had an excel as my first car and have fond-ish memories of throwing chiptorque turbo kits at it amongst other things!!

Just looking for the right base car that does not require any bodywork and is less than $1,250

Do you guys have any contact details for parts suppliers (i.e. rollcage, seat and harness mounts, suspension bits etc.)

cortispazz

where can we get these 4 point cages ??? for $300 and would they be cams approved?

hey guys i have to rebuild my motor in my excel
just a single cam rings were worn and starting to smoke.
was wondering weres the best place to get a rebuild kit?
id like to give the motor a full freshen up before i come racing lol

wasas

Come racing with a shit motor. Way more fun!

HSV

I vaguely remember someone hiring out these for the season, is this still happening?

If so I have 3 - 4 likely candidates for next year lined up.

datto510

Ralph mounfield built 2 that were to be rented out.
David from Track Attack also has a spare excel that i believe is going to be rented and used for driver training

HSV

That's right, thought it had something to do with Robbie.

Thanks mate.

Excels will be running at the next QRDC round at Queensland race way on the 9th and 10th July.
Numbers are looking good at the moment so if you want to run contact me for an entry as entries are made through the Gemini Club not QR.
Cheers Paul

yda55

lol i would win as you wouldnt be able to see through the smoke haha

GT_88

Hi Paul,

What's the reason for making entries through the Gemini Club?
Is it because the Track Attack web site is under construction?

Might be about time that the excels form a Club!...

GT

PRO050

No, the reason is the Gemini's have paid for the race slots so we just jump in with them. This is why they (gemini's) discount the entries $295 down to $250 for a 2 day race meeting. It is great value and run on the national circuit for all the races.
It was just the 4 rounds for the excel's this year so this is just a chance to do a little more racing.
Cheers Paul
