What's the format of the section you are competing in?
If its anything like last year I believe we get 5x15min sessions over the two days to get the fastest time. Basically overhyped qualifying sessions over two day :P .
someone on there's racing a c63 amg.. rofl some people are just rolling in money :x
I'll be very interested to see how often he changes tyres though..

Vehicles must retain their originally designated engine and configuration. EG; if your vehicle came from the manufacturer with a Naturally Aspirated SR20 then it must retain this engine and aspiration.
I wonder if this means that there is no restriction on changing the number of cams.. so as long as it's a 4g63, twin cam conversion is legal?

Techincally twin cam starion wouldnt be legal as they specify that the oem configuration must be used. But given they allow strokers in the evo i assume they will be relaxed about a twin cam stazz.
Went across town to see how Bao was progressing with the superlap Staz and was impressed with his front brake upgrade as the discs are huuuge and would lift the back wheels off the track with a heavy foot :o
Not long to go before trailering it to EC .Bao will be burning the midnight oil to finalise everything and I must admit am a little envious as I would sell my left one to be competing .Aaron the Bursons signs look spot on and good on you for helping Bao to compete. :beer
Bao I hope you have a great event and look forward to you posting video of the event after you arrive home safely.

GROWING OLD IS MANDATORY GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL
Well done in securing Burson sponsorship & committing yourself Bao to be at the event. Your car looks a bit different now. Like the big sticker in the back window, made me laugh!
Reduce fuel costs by 15-20% & cut emissions by 1/3rd...
Increase engine performance & prolong engine life...

Having alot of little things going wrong, thankfully khan has come to give me a hand. Looking forward to catch up with Aaron and other fellow starion members in Sydney.

Not sure yet, but i've lost compression in all 4 cylinders between 30-50 psi in each and there is oil on cylinder 1 spark plug. It may have jumped a couple of teeth but doesnt explain the oil.
