Hey guys,
I want to run my car in much cooler weather with a few more mods soon, and was thinking a Heathcote test 'n tune day is the way to go. I'm thinking I might get a diff and some thermos happening, along with a shift kit and a few other small bits here and there, so I reckon about 4 weeks is a safe amount of time to do all that stuff. I know Gilly wants to go too, as he gets his P's in a week and will have enough mods to pull a decent time by then. So yeah, just wondering if anyone else wants to come with? I reckon this is a better spot rather than events section, so leave it here please mods! As you all know by now, racing at Heathcote is $40 and spectating $15, and I'm thinking along the lines of 9th April. Sundeep |

Problem is John, I work on Saturday nights and I think that's when all the Forum drag days are. It was hard enough to get last Friday off, if I had a choice I wouldn't have gone in that heat!
So I'll be going up on a cool Sunday with low traffic 8-) Sundeep |

Spewing :( well at this stage, unless my hours change at work, I can't make it :(
Best of luck breaking into the 13s at Heathcote mate! Yes, it's good not to have to look at the temp gauge and cringe! Or to suffer heat soak... Cheers |

Nice list Mick. ;) From memory heathcote TNT are like 10-4 or 11-4, on of those, so it might not be feasable for you Dave. Sundeep Damo InitialD |
