I remember this car it was on daiforum years ago.

It is a regular at the hill. Quite std. Popped my head under and noticed it does have non-std springs. Was running road tires. Still cool. Cheap motorsport. Would be a blast.

yeh I remember it was quite standard back then also I do remember it had some sort of race style seat in them but it was more about the herbie look than performance.

quite standard as in EJ-DE standard? :thinking:
wow and it contends a class?
or is it all just fun kind of thing?

EJ-DE std. No class contender. Just a guy having extreme fun for just a few dollars.

extreme fun? :slight_smile:
sounds a bit PC
you a teacher or something? :stuck_out_tongue:
i am quite interested how many of you ozzies are into these - over here we basically chuck them out straight away
perhaps there’s something to look into there

Ok, “extreme” quantity of fun per dollar spent, as in it gets run a lot and more time is spent driving than developing. A great starting place car wise to get a taste of hillclimb. Certainly not an extreme class contender.

Gormsby may be a teacher but he is the antithesis of PC :grin:

yeah, to be quite honest I’m a bit jealous!
Because I don’t think it could compete over here
Great to make use of the ejde
I’m always saying I’d like to push one a bit to see how it went
