Looks like it will most likely be 20 September. I am waiting for WOMZA to finalize the date.

How do you make the Patrol GQ handbrake take on the rear wheels only when competing in Rallysprint?

We're getting serious now!

AFAIK the handbrake on the GQ is on the prop. So, no funny handbrake turns there if in 4H. :woo:

Die 4,2 Diesels sal maar moet kompeteer teen die 4,5 Petrols..... No Problem.....

Drag race tot op 160.... No Problem..... Bring it on!!

I feel like a little boy again... :blonde: :blonde:

If it's on the 20th I am in.

The Diesel's should not need to worry about any form of braking......

The insurance implications on this one are going to be interesting....

Now I just need to see if I can get that supercharger fitted by then....

No need for a supercharger on the 4.5, the diesel boys will be all worn out by the time they get there, having to peddle up all the hills to get there! LOL :rolling: :rolling:

They are busy looking for ways to make their petrol beasts perform on the day......

Maybe the diesel boys .... Andre I'm sure you can help here.......should bring a bowser with a 1000L of petrol so they can still get home afterwards...... :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: :rolling:
