Good luck to all heading west Nev Taylor will scare a few l think in the new car. Also Brad Prout is l think a favourite to go 1 better this year and win the National title.
Shannon is always hard to go past, but I think if the car hold together, Chris Coulthard in the Hawker Jimco will be tough to beat. Very, very quick driver....
Travis did very well first time out. I see both of the other OBR cars had engine problems...
Waiting to hear what has happened to Matt Hanson. He seemed to have the Porter going really well, around 4th/5th outright. Haven't heard what has happened to him yet.
Travis did extremly well he is one to watch in the future. Do OBR need to send thier other 2 cars to Greg Campbell for prep as well seems that he builds them pretty well bullet proof if Travis and Brad Prouts car is anything to go by.
Jero - what happened mate? also, can anyone fill me in on what happened with chappo, phillips, fellows, couthard, hanson and the 2 robinsons that dnf'd? there are lotsa bucks there that didnt see the finish line.....
well done to the westerns, matt and chris for 6th and 11th. Well done on the Top 10 for nev who by looking at the times looks like he was getting more comfortable witht he car each session.

Hey guys firstly have to congratulate the western desert racers on a top class event, they have definately set the standard for the rest of the nationals this year..... Great job guys!!!!
And WOLF to answer your question.... chappo had serpentine belt alignment issues, but the new champion loooked and sounded the goods...... phillips had a gearbox issue..... fellows was an oil line problem...... hanson was on the side of the track at the beginning of the last lap, not sure what he did?...... 2 robinson cars were engine related....

hi gary just got back to bris. after 44hrs driving but worth it a great event. my first mistake was tyre choice for the point to point 550hp on slicks in the wet not good. so sunday was to circulate and keep it out of the trees lucky the ones i picked were small ones and the spin out was in front of the spectators oh well. so there was nobody more suprised than me to be 8th from 23rd . the drive of the weekend as said before was travis robinson
