Speedway

[Dave]

litre cars will be replaced by lightning sprints over the next couple of years, now that they have reached a national agreement. They run v6 magna / pajero engines, with minimal mods, so they cost fuckall, and seem to get around really quickly. I have seen them at archerfield and was quite impressed.

PF Speedway meet?

PF Speedway meet?

bit late now, given that most the season is almost over

So did anyone end up building a car ?
I know there is a 1600cc class thats highly competitive and not too expensive . I reckon a nice mk3 Golf with a 1600 wet sleeve engine out of the golf 4 would do well !

Next demolition derby is March 19 at Parra speedway

had a drive of my mechanics car, whilst it was fun it was not for me.

1 of my chassis is a 12 year old arrow, the other is a purpose built dirt chassis, but although they handle completely different, they are equally as competitive

Always been interested in the difference in dirt chassis (Benson seem to be popular)

So what's different say between an Arrow (AX-6/8) and Dirt specific chassis???

[krt10]

dirt chassis usually have more flex i believe

[morerevsm3]

usually dirt chassis is lighter, no minimum weight, run alloy rear axle, and more flex, so either proper dirt frame, or 10+yo bitumen kart with rear axle change will be fine

I think there is a few meetings to go...

I know dads off to the bikes somewhere tonight or tomorrow.

Weve been building motors for the NOS (National Open Sportsman) sprintcars. Basically stock standard commodore V6 engines in a wingless sprintcar. Seems to be the cheapest way to go if you don't want to go sedan. Think I am going testing at the "Sugar Bowl" on the weekend.
