Wow, what an experience that would be. But the helmet of one of the passengers is way above the roll hoop! How on earth did they get away with that?

A friend of mine had paid his $1200 for his ride in the Arrows F1 car during the weekend, but, when he fronted up, he was unfortunately turned away because his helmet was above the roll hoop. He was gutted!

Great to see garage 9 had 5 McLaren F5000 cars in residence plus the Danie Jacobs car in Hamptons. I don't believe that there were 50 F5000 cars in attendance though.

M Peden was throwing this rally car into the carousal sideways and keeping it going until the exit. Very spectacular to watch plus the flames on the overrun.

That would be Master Kelsey wouldnt it?

Yes it was Master Kelsey, and he built it also.

Indeed - Alex Kelsey

I am off to do one of the great things about this sport. During the weekend we shared a pit unit with the Aussie F5000 invasion of Paul Zazryn and team and Peter Brennan and team along with our Pommie mate Greg Thornton and team. Well they have all travelled up to Bay Of Islands for a few days to look around, so it is off to join them now and 'plan' their stay.

That is a cool bit of gear, I think the built in a shed in Coromandel all by Alex is not giving others with the credit they are due though. Yes Alex's vision and ideas and cash, but I have to say Dan Slater in Auckland built quite a bit of that car.
