    Yeah, Mike speakz the truth. Rules say anything which could drop liquid onto the track needs to have a catch can. Only needs to be 600ml. (most factory radiator overflows have there own overflow as well which needs a catch can.).

    I used a fanta bottle

    LOL, not taking piss. Depends on the scrutineer person mostly as depends on their interpretation of the rules.


    Now for some extra information on helmets straight from the ANDRA rule book as well. If you guys get challenged tell them to read page 152 of the andra rule book.

    on a jza70, there is a barb on the overflow cap with a short bit of hose that goes nowhere. piss of the short bit of hose, put on a bit or windscreen wiper hose/vacuum tubing to a coke bottle cable-tied close by. bore a hole in the top of the coke bottle, jam the hoos in there.

    Just a thought, engine bays are hot, coke bottles are designed for cool liquids. No problem with melting? Is this the sort of thing I should be putting on in the carpark just for the drags?

    If I get a chance to borrow the fridge, then I'll probably pop down for a looksee, but I'm not driving the Supra that far until it's fixed.

    a lot of people lookin... not many actually racing... thus, not really much to look at
    83 GA61 Toyota Supra XX [TRD 83] - 7MGTE Turbo-A inside
    83 KE70 Toyota Corolla - the budget build
    94 EF Ford Fairmont Ghia [FATFORD] - looks tough, goes slow
    64 Chev Impala - west coast lowrider

    Ah, but who will watch the watchers?

    I'd be keen if a) my car was going b) I wasn't at work until stupid o'clock and c) I didn't have volleyball finals after work at stupid o'clock!
