Bring some wet weather gear now predicting the occasional shower
Hi, have just been scrolling through the entry list....some amazing stuff in there. Can someone tell me please what the difference is between class Nb and Nc.......Obviously they are saloons, but with different modifications. Is one similar to our schedule K class, or is it based on year of manufacture? Maybe one of them is similar to what oldfart was proposing to run here in NZ, ie fairly standard cars with very limited modifications. Thanks.
Its based on date Gerald.
Group Na is for Historic Touring Cars built prior to December 31 1957.
Group Nb is for Historic Touring Cars built prior to December 31 1964.
Group Nc is for Historic Touring Cars built between January 1 1965 and December 31 1972.
Also, with Group Nc, only cars that competed in an Australian Touring Car Championship race or Improved Production race prior to December 31 1972 are eligible. Thats why you see 1969 Mustangs racing in Group Nc, but not 1970 Mustangs. Nobody raced a 1970 Mustang in an ATCC race prior to that date.
Just had a quick look through the entry list. Hope someone has a good digital camera and plenty of batteries for the weekend.
No Anglia's..yet again, were they all converted back to Harry Potter specification??
That is a surprising omission, seeing as the Mini and the Anglia ruled the roost here for a long time. There are quite a few Cooper 'S' entries. I think back to last year when Steve Pauling came up from ChCh with his Anglia for the Chris Amon FoS. It looked so standard....almost as though Auntie Pat had just stepped out of it.....but it went like stink. Whats up with Australia??
Gerald Maate,
If it aint got a "Made in Australia" sticker on it, its not fair dinkum. Mini just qualifies (as long as it has wind up windows).
Howard, are you 'fair dinkum' about the wind up windows? If so I will have to cancel my entry!!!!!
In Aus they became sports sedans than they vanished
Well off for the big bird, and looking forward to it. Once we have the car sorted i will endevour to get as many photos as possible.
Dale i will do what i can and maybe get you some contacts etc.
Cheers
Nb and Nc Mini's run sliding windows in Australia.
Thanks
Ian
