    Thumbs up winton six hour 19th /20th october 2013

    we have eleven months and two weeks to get this together
    there seems to be enough interest to have nearly two teams of classic celica's
    this will be most definitely my last run

    so far we have
    ian ra23
    eddie meadows ta22
    timbo ra 28
    /peter ra 23 or possibly ra 28
    oscar ta23
    and joey ,if he pulls his finger out , lol

    ive been discussing with a mate the possibility of an all 7m cressida team (possibly stretch to include jz's depending on numbers)

    he is keen but i feel 2014 would be a better goal so the cars (and drivers) can prove their reliability before signing up.


    either way we got some points for TCCAV while you guys were up at winton with 2nd and 3rd in class at rob roy interclub

    I was holding off for a little longer before starting this feed but Ian got in first
    you can add Rob ,John,Steve,Pete,Cliff and me to that list
    but noticing you have listed Celica's I feel we may not be suitable

    I think Ian is keen to have a true first gen Celica team as his final 6hr run. Don't want to get too carried away but I have a feeling that next year those 3 teams will fill up rather quickly based on the enthusiasm from this year. That and the fact that every man and his dog now seems to have an AE82 track car

    are you calling me a dog?

    i am hoping my ae82 is ready and racing next year....

    i will note that it was with difficulty we managed to get three teams in for 2012. both actually getting the organisers to agree to three, and then populating three.

    so don't get too ambitious

    ......it's the same every year though.....we have a heap of people jump up and down about running next year and then we struggle to get full teams......i'd certainly say that there are enough people who have now done a 6HR to want to compete again.....whether they or any newbies are ready in Oct next year is another thing

    we should not have to much difficulty in getting 3 or more teams in
    as long as all the details and cash are in before the official entry opening date
    we will get in
    if the alfa club can have more than 3 teams we can too

    if you ignore the fact that the alfa club organises it, that is excellent logic
