There are 63 days to go until Round 2 of the 2024 season gets underway at Queensland Raceway.

This time last week the season got underway at Sydney Motorsport Park and the consensus of fans is that it was a great start to the year with 16 competitors, 17 entrants, new drivers, look vehicle looks and one race on TV and one streamed making it all quite sensational.

Welcome to all new followers and likers of the Facebook page, there are quite a few of you and it is great to have you with us.

We have a new website look for you, Roy Ellery from motorsportarchives.com messaged us yesterday offering website assistance and he has put together a look that is hopefully to your liking, the black just really works well.

Jake Frisch’s future ride

There has a lot of developments over the last few weeks, Jake Frisch who is the driver of the #3 Lumina has brought the Pontiac that Mick Heppleston had for sale, it is going to take some time for that car to get going but it can be done.

Our advice to Jake is, talk and talk often, talking about what you have and what you need could bring many benefits from knowledge to offers.

There are a lot of vehicles out there from AUSCAR to Stock Car that are in the process of being readied for competition, we need to work together to get them on the track from giving advice to help purchase small items to move the process along.

In further developments, the championship winning #226 OzTruck (seen above from 2019) is going to a new home, it has been purchased by Greg Morris, its last Natsoft record is October 1, 2022, when it participated in the joint SCA/Super TT round at SMP.

The #11 OzTruck is on the move from the Hourigan family, it is going to the Burgess family, no information on who will be driving the vehicle which is one of the best OzTrucks going around.

All this buying and selling shows just how much confidence is in Stock Cars Australia and if people are buying then people will be curious and when people are selling, the curious will be buying.

Congratulations to Cole Davis whose Ford Falcon AUSCAR was featured on the V8 Sleuth website, we have been jotting down the progress of the Falcon closely and will have a full report on its restoration when it is completed, what’s more we could be seeing this car in action in November!

If you have a Laughlin chassis and you don’t know the history of it and you want to know it, please leave the chassis number here and details will be passed on to The Chassis Guy and hopefully he finds out all he can about it.

That’s the news for this week, thank you for being here with us and we look forward to seeing you next week.
