I was a little surprised at that response ... then after ringing the CAMS President I got a fellow who was reasonable and I think want's to get it over the line per the rules of course.. so we will see Monday now ... it gives them a couple of days to get the book to me ... it will be close

All in all it some times get's too hard to make a decision ... but that's the job so I hope then go with us... I know of a few plans to track 86's ... the more the merrier !!!

Given the fact that 86 and DC5 Intergra are of similar shape, size and power I'm still not understanding what the fuss is all about. Sounds like people are running scared of how well Toyota have developed the Chassis.

I'm desperate to watch this! Is it being televised? How does Natsoft work, is it only for results?
Are you guys going to mount a camera and post some video of the racing for us to watch?
Please!

After a revised pit garage allocation we .. the Production cars have for some reason been intermingled with Production sports ?? Why I do not know.. BUT the 86's are in Garage 7 in the main pit complex.. looking forward to meeting you..

Just got the car back with the War Paint..... looks great and should stand out in a crowd !!

PS.. If anyone is going up who has any old suspension arms etc.. and you don't want them or are happy to loan them if required I am happy to chat.. we have No spares .. and Bathurst can be cruel to any cars.. a few odd factory spares may help... I hope not to use any

Cheers Reevesy #86

PS: All of our rounds will be shown on TVS this year.. some outside and a lot of car cams .. should work well stand by for further after the race.. it will all be post produced and put into something entertaining.. The guys at DGB Media do a great job !!

I've got spare stock sway bars with stock brakes but I believe you have upgraded to the big brake package anyway.

As you suspected.. GTS rears and AP fronts.. Superpro bars.. Thanks for the offer though.. I am worried about bumping the rear or fronts for that matter and bending something ... 50 car grid and a lot of people in a hurry = ooops !!

If you like I can bring Rear Rotors and Pads if you need spares as mine is a GTS.
