Gearbox out...so is trip to Phillip Island

Well, got the gearbox out on the weekend but as yet to take it to be looked at. It will either be get it fixed or source another one.

Time is running out to confirm a trip to Phillip Island. I've contacted a few places for sponsorship, but yet to hear back. A fellow competitor is also trying for me and has offered me some sponsorship himself, which was a really nice gesture. But it may all come to nought depending on other finance and the gearbox situation. If I dont go I wont be at the next round of the Tas Super Series either as a sporting gesture to the guys that will also miss the round and for the above reason

To make matter worse, my mother's house was broken into and had some money stolen, so that is a consideration also. (BASTARDS!!!)

All in all it just doesnt look like it was meant to be this year. At seasons end we will rethink what we want to do, be it keep racing the Skyline, or get into something a bit cheaper like an HQ. The only thing thing is I might dose off driving a HQ, being the speed difference between the Skyline and an HQ!!
