ah dont body swaps have to rego'd as icv's?? which pretty much rules out any body swap

Post by **rammer60** » Wed Sep 02, 2009 5:17 pm

oh still havent got this quote thing worked out. last post was in regards to the question asked by mosko111. my understanding is body swaps arent allowed, unless u get individually constructed vehicle certification. which is nigh on impossible now days.

Are window nets required

Post by **rammer60** » Wed Sep 02, 2009 8:09 pm

yes. and an external kill switch. its all there in the rules and regs, but window nets, external kill switch and fire extinguisher are the main ones u gotta sort out. well worth the effort though, is a good fun event

ok .Got the kill switch done and on the head board of the tray.what else do i have to do to the switch..because you are going to be hard pressed to turn it if the car is moving(u will get run over)

do we need to have a hole in the key and have wire or rope thru it?

oh and by the way.this is a good idea but friggin sucks when i take the car to the shops.have to pull the key out so no one takes the key. and it resets my stereo and trip and clock...very annoying

Post by **rammer60** » Sat Sep 05, 2009 4:04 pm

ha, yeah i know, can be frustrating. may just have to check the rules on placement, as long as its towards the side of the tray, not in the centre, should be alright. i set up the kill switch under the hood, then went to a speed shop n got a pull wire and handle that can mount on the guard, grill tray, whatever, and pull the switch remotely. worst can happen then is someone pulls it n i gotta pop the hood n switch it on again, but at least they cant take the handle. if youve already got it set up towards the middle of the tray, do wot u said, get a pull wire, run it through they key n set up a little bracket front side of you tray, so it can be pulled easily from the side of the car....... n i think u have to have a blue triangle sticker next to or under it, showing where it is.

hey red24, its 33's in trophy im afraid, and as for the entry forms, u can pay on the day, but u sometimes get a deal wit park entry if u prepay. check their website for entry forms, think there's a fax number there to send it to otherwise there's numbers there for people u can get the info from

Apparently, there is already a bloke running in Trophy this round on 35's.

But he will not be accruing any points because of this.

the kill switch is to be operational from outside of the vehicle, not on top of the vehicle. I would suggest putting a rip cord on it.

33" is the tyre limit for trophy class, however, trucks who are entering into mod classwhere 35" is the size limit will be allowed to run the trophy class tracks last and also accrue no points, this is for this round only, and tyre size limits will revert bact to normal rules for next year's comps

Post by **green4x4** » Sun Sep 06, 2009 5:31 pm

BATTERY ISOLATORS, are best located on the front or rear of the vehicle, as to allow easy access in the event of a roll over, ie side mount is a bit hard to get to if you roll on the side you fit it to
