Let's let it rip and have some

Yesterday the team completed the 12 hr night rider event at calder run by Motor Events Racing and ended up coming home in 3rd in class a great effort for our team and reward for the hard work building a new car
We had some dramas during the day with a gearbox seal failing and the car finding the concrete again and it even tried to be superman and get all 4 wheels off the ground but all we tried to do to stop this car it just kept going its not a race car if it don't have some duct tape on it
I would like to thank our other drivers Gary Bruce JD and Charlee and also all our crew members that helped out Albert Fell Pauline Fell Jayden Manton Caylem Wade Leigh
The support our team gets from Michael Taylor and his team at Taylored Automotive & Performance Centre is greatly appreciated
Let's fix it up and go again at the next event

Been a big couple of weeks for the team putting together a new car from a standard falcon to a manual xr with plenty of upgrades exhaust brakes wheels lights ect would like to thank those that have helped out and still a bit more to go but looking good to be ready to burn rubber at Calder on the 31st May Motor Events Racing
