Hyundai Excel Racing Series - Track Attack - Evil things are about to happen to Hyundai Excels  

Marlin

You stole our idea Jeff! lol

wasas

ffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu someone just got that silver twin cam at brown stains i was about to get. damn you!

trackattack

I did ? Oh well its a great idea !
are you building one for circuit racing ?




I will be building one with a cage for circuit racing and a 3 or 4 others have shown interest in the circuit racing.
I think that a few will convert across from sprints to racing when they get a feel for it.
We will be able to race in with the other 4 cylinder cars to start with if there aren't many excels.
Once people see it happening and how much fun it is for virtually no money it will grow !

Does this mean that there are thoughts of including Daewoos into the series?? Makes sense and opens up the market a bit as well.

Definitely keen and like the idea of options. If there are options the specific models/years need to be spelled out.

My immaculate piece of Korean engineering is being delivered as we speak. The bloke seemed a bit too eager to get rid of it

clutch-monkey

probably thought you were taking the piss when you said you wanted to race it

Big_Red_

haha didn't tell him that, if he knew i wanted to race it he'd assume i had money. I just played the "i'm a poor uni student" card, need something cheap to get around

Sweet got my 2 race cars for ANA Autos getting the exhausts on them today strip them tommorow. Feel like a big kid again. Saves racing the 2 GTR's. So funny R.D.P whacked my first excel on the rollers, and made a whopping 63.8hp LOL!!!!!!!!!!

trackattack

at this stage we will stick with the excels for the series.
if you want to build a daewoo and come race with the excels thats cool.

Big_Red_

haha what are the specs on your two cars mate? (year, model, k's etc)

Hoybo

HOLLY CRAP !




...HOLLY CRAP

That is insane

Reddyboy

1996 PLATE COUPE, 1998 PLATE BOTH SINGLE CAMS. BOTH ABOUT 230K'S. Exhaust, intake pod, lowerd susp.

Hoybo

Post updated..

Sorry mate, 1997 model EFI version. 192 k's...

wasas

guessing single cam? wahts it need for a rwc?

Hoybo

Single cam yes.

You don't need a RWC for this event.

For a road car, I'm not sure. Front tyres most likely from what I see.

trackattack

A few people have been asking about 15" wheels to make tyres easier to get
and to improve handling with lower profile tyres.
apparently quite a few of the cars already have 15" wheels !

is there any major objection to this ?

wasas

need to have a max width on the tyre, say 205/50/15??
this size keeps the rolling diam simialar to stock for those that plan to have the POS road reg so we can drive it there and home.

also there are heaps on ebay for cheap. and you can get them in ku 36's...

TwinCam16

I thought the only restrictions on rubber was they had to be non race tyres?

trackattack

we were going to try to stick with 13" wheels but this is counter productive if its costing people money.

so 15" wheels definitely allowed
that lets people run 205 x 50 x 15 KU36
which should work really well on these little beasties.

RACE NUMBERS

We are currently making a list of series registered numbers on the Excel Racing page - http://www.trackattack.com.au/excel
When you register for your first sprint day if the number you put on your entry is available we will make those numbers and given enough notice will have them ready for you for your first event.
These are permanent race numbers that you can put on both sides of your cars and leave them there.

We need to thank AMS for making the numbers and Real Dyno Performance for sponsoring the numbers.

Cheers Jeff

PRO050

Good call on the tyres Jeff,
I'm led to beleive that later 15 inch Acsent rims will fit with a slight mod.
Cheers Paul

Has this been integrated with the QR and Lakeside Sprints system ? When I was doing
sprint days I had to cover up any other numbers on the car other than the one they give you.

Big_Red_

Ok mate just to confirm things (taken from the track attack forum)
The 7th is not for points, just more a test day yes? The actual series will begin on the 14th of March?
If so, has anyone registered for the 14th as yet?

Hoybo

Just a note, still got the car. Need gone asap. Offer me something, worst I can say is no.

To whoever called me, please PM me your email so i can send through pics.

nodrog

does this seem to be a bit of contradiction::::::

"•Any tyre that is designated as a race tyre or on a race tyre list is not permitted" from the rules,

and then this from the Kumho website regarding the KU36

"Designed for SCCA racing...................."

??????

wasas

yeah but its not a R spec, nor is it a proper semi slick. its a high performance street.
Think of it as a control tyre

PRO050

Good street tyre not a semi, gives great bang for your buck.

dave001

do u need a drivers license???

oatesy

i wonder if the misses will notice if i put a cage in hers?

dave001

how many people are properly keen?? (have cars) i dont want to get one and then the series is a dud

BOZZO

just saw this seems pretty fucking tempting. Although if I go ahead it'll be sprints only due to prep for circuit.

Anyone running rego'd ones?
