[WA] Forest Rally - Hondas rip up Busselton...

[VT3C]

The Australian Rally Championship has their WA event in the area surrounding Busselton in WA's South West.

The Event has a special Stage set up around a couple of the football ovals up at the Busselton Waterfront up near the Jetty and they run a WA State Series event - Shannons Busselton Sprint - and we had a couple of the VTEChnique boys competing as well of a few of our 'associates'. I went down to check out the action as I intend to enter next year myself..

As the Saint will tell you, there isnt a whole lot of love for the big 'H' down in Busselton so it was great to have a handfull of noisy little lunchboxes to make their' presence known to the locals.

here's some of my pic of the hondas - enjoy !

Sena's FN2 type R countdown.. pics arent nesc the same run but they are in order of the track's layout:

not a Honda but an Honorable Club member Irwin's EVO was going crazy and hurting the tarmac:

Another B16 Powered EG, Tsung-Lee was very entertaining and driving on the limit

NOTE: sans wing mirrors, windscreen mirror, windshield wipers.. anything that weighs anything and is not needed gets unbolted.. but i still see antenna, side markers, door strips.. :P

Just as I was leaving I heard some tak and looked up to see Ryan fanging down the straight so I ran over and got just the one photo sorry bro :)

Then as I was waling back to my car again I heard another grumble and saw THIS pulling into the course entrance.. so I sprinted 100m and almost had a heart attack but got a couple of pics before my batteries finally died... apparently they didnt do too well in the dirt but I wonder how their times stacked up against sena's on the special stage ;)
