Yes we will be running sprints and races, both will be under AASA licensing system at QR & LP.
Sprints at Willowbank park dirt track and Carnell Raceway will also be under AASA.
We are also looking at doing another day at Mt Cotton Hillclimb, this event would most likely be cams.

doing the water pump on mine atm, what a c*#t of a job and I cant get the crank pulley bolt undone, my rattle gun wont budge it, tried the starter method and nothing. Tomorrow I will try the 3 foot pole method put it in 5th foot on the brake and swing off the pole

Interior is all stripped so should be good for the April round

not for points in the excel series, but you can come and run with the excels, no problems.
The S coupe would be in our normal naturally aspirated class competing for points against escorts etc.

There's more in there than you'd think. I reckon close to 10kg.

Finished gutting the interior of ours today, oil is draining right now.

We need some brake pads!

We have 6 Excels entered for the make up round (rained out) on the 7th - entry list here

I reckon we will also have a couple of extra cars ready for the scheduled round on the 14th
It would be good to see a few Excels at Carnell Raceway at Stanthorpe on Easter Saturday as well.
There will be VW's to compete against, and maybe a few Mini's as well !

How much for the pads alone?

And what kind of helmets/race suits do you have?

How much are the suspension packages you're offering?

BTW I can't find anything at all in the shop on your website.

This looks like an excellent series! I have a bad feeling that despite mentioning that 5 cars hanging around really is enough, that we are going to end up with an excel in the future.

I will try to come out and take some photos of these bad boys in action to :P

Post #290

@#$! of a job, I spent most of the time trying to undo the crank pully bolt

Ok step by step, I might miss something though

Drain radiator, disconnect battery etc etc
remove all belts PS, ALT, AC
remove PS pump
unbolt top alternator bolt swing away
remove top engine mount
remove pully off water pump
jack up car remove drivers side wheel
remove lower plastic trim
remove lower crank pullies
remove timing belt cover
you have couple of options from here, while it is all pulled apart it is the best time to change the timing belt but this is up to you
option 1- leaving timing belt alone and work around it
option 2 - remove/change timing belt

I did option 1 as this motor will be swapped out in the next couple of months so I dont care if it breaks

remove the water pump 4 bolts the top bolt need the timing belt moved a little but it easily enough done
then but it back the opposite way it was taken apart
