I thought I would add a thread in here about my x-pack, it's been around a while but is now getting used regularly in competition
I originally built this as a fun/trackday and drift car when I was in the UK, I used it for a while and was all set to enter the UKD1 series when my Australian Immigration Visa finally arrived, so I packed it in a comtainer (along with a few other toys) and headed South.
Various posts about the car over the past few years, and pics of the build and subsequent modifications can be foundby clicking here
Unfortunately the area I moved to originally was not quite right for us, and was very quiet, as a result the car mostly sat in the garage doing bugger all for the next 2 and a half years with the exception of a few fun outings), until I moved to Queensland, and to an area just 25 minutes from a great little hillclimb circuit
.
Since I have been here I have been out for a couple of events at the local track, with different clubs, and have now entered in an annual championship, The MGCCQ Tighe Cams Hillclimb Series.
Unfortunately I can't make all rounds, so doubt I will be winning much this year, but I have been getting quicker and running near the front in my class, I have picked up 1 3rd place trophy at my first go which put a big smile on my face.
I am planning to do as many rounds as possible this year, and possibly some other sprints and speed events, so will keep this thread updated with any results, pictures and videos I have along the way.
