Thanks David. I just registered and received "Index Number 60" in the confirmation of receipt. This year there were 63 points scorers. Does this tell you that registrations are almost full already?

I was bored at work and filled it out straight away.

Aiming high trying to beat last years tally of 0 events attended.

Registered the gold NB8A in type 3B for 2015.

I will run the 3 Wakefield rounds and maybe some Sydney rounds. Not competitive but may get some club points and I can run my existing 15x7" race rims and take out the passenger seat to make it easier to carry them in car.

Now to watch any on-line video of Gus and Bryan to see how to drive a NB with stock suspension.

I beleive the max number of registered competitors this year is limited to 200 and there was over this amount regsisyereed last year in the SS.

Game on in 4B

I had not realised that Rd8 was the Nationals .. that is one way to fill the field. Two days, I wonder what the entry fee will be! Not that it matters, I was planning to enter anyway - too good an opportunity to pass up, being on my doorstep anyway!

The emphasis on window nets is new for this year, but not strictly for us, we are open cars under the regs.

I was also interested to see the mention of Alan Bugh checking eligibility over the first couple of rounds, don't remember that happening in previous years.

Bring on Round 1!

And the Club day is the next day (Monday). You'll need two sets of tyres.

It will be interesting as I've entered 3C for the next comp.

Last year one of the 3C competitors was running 9" rims, that stuck outside the bodywork. Bet it's not picked up.

signed up and ready to go! in class 4c to avoid having to nerf the car to be eligible for class 3.
looking forward to seeing everyone else's rear ends speeding off into the distance!

Maybe. Might have been a few mumbles though, which got around. When he does yours, just ask him if your wheels not too wide for the class, he will get the hint. Anyway, that one may be fixed for this year The level of scrutineering leaves something to be desired, I got word at the last round that I was suspect for being outside Type 2 regs - but I haven't run Type 2 for five or six years ... Fortunately I was able to nip that in the bud, pointing out it was actually a Type 4 car!

Those times are pretty respectable, beat mine at WP anyway, though I am into the 4s at EC South you could not call that a turbo-friendly circuit

.

Registered in 1B again and relishing the challenge of knocking off Stewart in his NC.

A few years ago, my stock NA6 was checked by Alan as someone had questioned whether it had an LSD. Wrong. Eligibility checks do happen.

Black car will not be ready - so for kicks and giggles, have entered the blue car in class 4.

God knows if I will actually make it to any rounds as door to door will be my priority and this is more for a chance to get some track / testing time and to see some other circuits like SMP GP and the Brabham circuit. Depending on how things progress with the black car, I may end up doing a car swap some time through the year.

I'm confirmed in 2B, looking forward to getting to as many rounds as I can and add some points for the MX5 club

just sent mine off.

svb this year. will probably attend smsp rounds only though, i want to broaden my horizons a little this year and try other forms of racing. regularity who knows and maybe a cup round later in the year!

IIRC i dont think they are running the brabham circuit this year. its a shame

Good to hear. You should enjoy regularities and MX-5 Cup!
Those twisty bits on the Brabham circuit must have been a problem for the heavier/faster cars, ... poor dears.
Next I suggest they put a chicane on the main straight for the other rounds at SMSP so that the lower powered cars (ie MX-5s) are not disadvantaged :-)

I just put my entry in as well for Class 2C again.
Hopefeully less Porsches this time round.

Should I receive a confirmation email or similar???
