round 2 phillip island

[olden05]

How many are going to round 2 ? is the entry list out yet ? undefined

[petrolhead]

Entry list is as follows, Ricciardello, Hossack, Gillon(doubtful), Tamasi, Nelson, Senese, Crompton, Baily(maybe), Munday, Youlden, Young, Jameson, McGinniss, Banks, Camm. Bernie Gillon might be kept in NZ due to his dealings with Team Kiwi and Kerry Baily is trying to get back from a trip to Germany in time to compete. Just watch for Youlden, Ricciardello & Crompton as they unleash the horse power at PI.

aren't numbers a bit low??

[petrolhead]

Roads, I wish that I had answer to the problem of low numbers. I would have thought that anyone with a 600+ hp SS would give his left nut to be at PI. We do have one more bringing the total to 16 if all arrive.

I expected more, especially at PI and with a month before the vic next state round...Disappointing, ill still try and get down but I expected a few more. We will wait and see for the list to appear on the website. No Roddy again yet???

[petrolhead]

No Roddy yet rotorboi, don't know what the situation is with Mike and Jordy. Costs of accomodation, food and fuel are a big consideration for many. From the present entry list, we may still lose Gillon, Jameson and Camm. Stay tuned.

Yeah, no Roddy's for a while. Saving up the $$$$, and are sourcing a new gearbox for the car. Taking time out this year to sort a few things out on the car as well. Car MAY run once towards the end of the year, but focus is definitely on 2009......

Saw Hossack shaking down the Audi at Calder today.Car looks very impressive engineering wise, but also its poise on-track, particularly over the bumps, and power-down. Not much more major tuning needed I would think....

That's interesting about the RoddyJag, doesn't it already have a Holinger in it?

[bigpat]

It did! Had issues with the remote shifter it needed to fit the car (H pattern).

That Holinger is now in a friends VH Commodore race car.

Some different boxes will open up some other options on the car, to improve its performance.......

.......I already have withdrawal symptoms :(

Haha I am going to take a guess that a transaxle might be in the pipeline, or am I way off with that one?
