Just confirm, that you would you run in the Club Sprint Class?

Hence why you want to run on the FALKEN Azenis RT-615K... http://www.falkentire.com/Tires/Azenis-RT-615K-14
The result: A tough, durable, street-sensible tire, whose 200/A/A UTQG rating, make it a great match for the autocross, time attack, or drift competition

Guys the Staz will be repaired but is not booked in until April 30 so will be ready for the Fraser coast sprints in June .
Am intending to get some further training with Paul Stokell at their track days as well as some sprints at QR just to make sure I haven't lost my nerve.
So what has to be done to enter the car for superlap as don't want to miss out .
Am considering a Coltspeed one piece bumper/spoiler but they are a bit pricey at $480.00 +post. :( :o

Good to hear, Rad. :beer

I would suggest taking up Mal's offer of his silver JB front bar and fog lights + blinkers instead of the Coltspeed front bar/spoiler.

Had a call from Bao aka Rice Thief and said entries are open so clicked on the SL site and the clubsport entries are full and could not DLl a form so I contacted them and they em'd an entry form back and have submitted it so I am 5th on the reserve list.
Talk about the quick and the dead the entry for clubsprint was full in less than 2 hours :shock:

Last time I bought good tyres I got them from these guys, http://www.option1garage.com.au/NewTyres.htm
Prices seem to have stayed fairly stable, I bought a set of 195/50R15 Federal 595RS-R for $140/corner plus shipping.
