Re: SRC 2017 Round 5 HSC
Stoo, thanks for the thorough report and piccies. It certainly was a mixed bag of ups and downs for some of us, but boy o boy what fast racing at the pointy end. Congrats to the podium getters, and Mark certainly showed us how the Retro gig is supposed to go. Lots of close racing, and good fun with ...

Re: Mini Wheels
Neil, sounds good.
Yeah, even the originals of what I've got are not great, as they look like old Gestetner or Roneo prints.
I'll dig the few I have out and scan them.

Re: Mini Wheels
I've got a few Aussie newsletter/mags, but not sure which ones.
I've also got a website that I'm slowly working on, where they could be displayed if interested.
I'll scan the ones I have, upload them and post a link to an index.

Re: RACE REPORT - HSC 4 Hour Retro CanAm Enduro
Good report as usual Mark, and I'd like to echo your thanks and sentiments to James on the track condition. It was impecable, and we are definitely lucky to have James and HSC to race our little toy cars with. There were some very fast cars and teams on the day, but you, Stoo and that pink/black pol...

Re: A bit of help
Brad, the Rgeo jig is hard to beat for the price, and you can get away without the need for jig wheels, by using the adjusting screws under the axle. Bit of a fiddle to set up, but easy enough to do, and I have used bluetak to hold the screw to help stop them from turning. Could also use a lock-nut....

Re: HSC Enduro
Ooops.
I thought I was confirming entry for the SSME 4hr, and didn't realise this was another event.
Didn't read the opening properly.
So, I'll have to withdraw untill I can assess things a bit more clearly.
Not sure if Kevin would want to race...
Sorry for my seniors moment...

Re: SSME ENDURO
Looks good Mark.
How will you 'police' the driving time of each driver?
Is it really necessary to have all drivers, drive all lanes?
I can help with scrutineering if you like.

Thanks as usual for the report and piccies Mark.
Darryl should be back next round to stir you front runners up.
