Anyone coming down for a look? There's only 3 Toranas in the Grp C & A class but will definitely be a great weekend considering Mark Skaife is reunited with his old HR31 Skyline, Larry Perkins is racing the ex KB pantera & the International Sports Car Challenge is going to show some serious horsepower! P.s it's been super hot down here today & will continue you like it all weekend Cheers Tim Attached File  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1362571884.428681.jpg   113.38K   6 downloads Attached File  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1362572002.113629.jpg   73.86K   7 downloads Attached File  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1362572037.033804.jpg   76.24K   4 downloads

Bryan Sala finished about ninth at Bathurst early 1990's in that Sierra, certainly before he was old enough to hold a Victorian drivers licence.  Now he's dusted it off and has it out again twenty years later. Looked like he was fast at Sandown last November and just needs to find some reliability. How was practice for you Rod?

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Caliper seal let go when dad went to fuel up, we are hoping the new ones are going to take up

Fixed the seal, then stripped a bleed nipple, that's fixed then started rear of grid, made up 8-10 positions, shifter jammed in top gear on last lap. We got out on the track anyway!
