I'm pretty sure you can still enter right up until the actual day, just incur a late fee of around $40 I think.

Ring somebody, they're hardly likely to not want your money.

You do have a fully caged car though, right?

For most sealed sprints this is the case... however Shelley Bay has a reputation of being a bit of a dangerous stretch of road, with water / spiky rocks, or steep uphill bank being your only 2 exit options if you get it wrong.

What a great day, looked like rain in the morning but then the sun came through to burn me!
Well run event, no hold ups, only a few timing gear issues.

Results that I remember

1st overall Ron Scanlan EVO3 (1st Class E)
2nd overall GTR skyline (2nd Class E)
3rd overall Murray O'Neil EVO (3rd Class E)
4th or 5th overall Lewis Scott EVO7
8th overall Me (1st Class B - 1600cc)
9th overall Campbel Wilson Starlet (2nd Class B - 1600cc)

About all I can remember off the top of my head!
Full results will be on - seabrightmotorsport.co.nz - as soon as Jody gets a chance.

Well done all the Toyspeeders entered , my new motor did well considering the fact I finally got the car finished 9pm friday , the driver on the other hand needs some work as does a concrete kerb after my last run of the day 8O .
Lucky they build toyotas tough :wink:

"Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
"Torque" is how far you take the fence with you.
