Great find Lorian :mrgreen: Would be interesting to know what mods they have been able to make (chipping etc..) to make it competetive with more powerful cars..
-
I guess they unscrewed the aerial

Hopefully they will "screw" the opposition :wink:

Yay to that :D

I have a sneaking suspicion I saw this outside Neal Bates workshop in Hume, ACT, when I was driving my Bus back to the depot one night last week.
Should have stopped to ask questions.
-
Makes you kinda proud, seeing an i30 in action like that :cool: :cool: :cool:
-
i wonder if its been turned into a 4wd or its still a front wheel drive.
-
Bates in Canberra has been involved in preparation of this car.
Read about it here.

Makes you proud.. :mrgreen:

I heard that it was a petrol auto, converted to a diesel manual.
Seeing as it's fully Hyundai sponsored I'd like to know why they couldn't spare a manual diesel straight up...........

Yeah, I heard that too and thought it was a bit weird... :cool:
EDIT: I just tried to find contact info for Mick Gillett (and his Navigator) would have been good to get them on board as at least temporary members.. no luck yet will keep trying

Me too! Bare with me though....it takes a while to go through over 240pics and 'touch them up'. Will post in the pics area when ready :)
-
Yeah.. No worries take your time (been there done that with Targa Tas photos etc)
Did some in car video on my last trip around tassie but tricky to edit and such big files.. I never got around to posting them... :rolleyes:

One of the more unfortunate things about the recent forum hardware failure and subsequent restore is that the posts from Mick Gillet in this thread have gone. I presume his account will have also have disappeared. He might think we don't like him!
Might be an idea for someone to drop him a note and invite him back again!
-
ohh noes...

Good point Lorian.. might be a bit tricky to drop him a line though as can't send him a PM and don't know his email.. :cool:
I'll try to track him down via google or facebook if I get a chance..

Welcome back. Sorry we lost your login details (and initial post). We suffered a hardware failure and lost 4 days of posts (and new registrations)
-
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: Brilliant to have you back Mick, nice job on the website also :wink: :wink: :wink:
-
Hi Mick.. Sorry about that.. Glad you realised we didn't mean too.. Must check out your website when I get time :mrgreen:
-
Mick
Watched the ARC Rally Qld on Ten and saw your interview. Nicely done. :wink:
Great work getting the apprentices involved to work on your car. Some good footage of the i30 going through it's paces. Congrats on winning the eco challenge! :cool:
-
ohh dam... i forgot about this! *agent sulks*
is there anywhere on the net we can watch it? did anyone tape it? (well almost no one uses tapes anymore but you get the drift)
-
I like your Website Mick.. A bit slow to load but otherwise very entertaining (and well laid out) :D
-
very professional looking team. :cool:
-
Thanks guys
You have to be pretty thick skinned in the rally world so I took the membership exclusion with a grain of salt and thought it was a tech issue. :)
The Web page is in its infancy and is not being hosted by Hyundai ATM but by our Media Manager. I thought the coverage was pretty good, just need some more speed out of the i30 to make it exciting to watch.
This is probably not the right place for this but the team rally jackets are available for purchase. Having looked at what merchandise you guys have been talking about I don't believe the Jackets will conflict with what you have on offer. Would anyone be interested?
The i30 is off to Wagga this week for a trade night at Wagga Motors Hyundai, so its time to polish the tail pipe and vac the carpet.
Mick
-
What sort of $$ do they want for the Jackets Mick? ...and do you buy them through your website?
So you not only drive the i30 but are expected to keep it clean as well :eek:

Did you see any spectators on the coverage? It could have been me! lol
-
Plenty of spectators at that big central viewing area at Imbil.
I've got a heap of pics and footage from there last year.
It's a good spot but I prefer when you used to be able to sneak in and find your own spot. :cool:
-
Yeah I was in there. ;) I went with a mate who went years ago when like you said, could go through the bush to other places. I would have liked to do that. :)
-
man you could practically go anywhere just 3 years ago if you could walk there you could stand there!!! then they made it a few areas scattered around, then just one area last year...
im pretty sure i have photos somewhere of me that covered in dust when i moved it made a small dust storm!!!
