Still a rocketship!

The answer: No, I would be way out of my depth. Best to get some experience wobbling around the back of Circuit Excels or Improved Production under 2L first... Something with a less intimidating performance level.

Switching off the part of one's brain that says "what if..." and going hell for leather doesn't come naturally to me, or I suspect most. Race car drivers are mad, no? The reassurance of a proper racing car with a full roll cage would help though compared to running one's wildly unsafe zero-star rating old street car in club sprints and the like though.

How about you?

Maybe Stanaway should apply?

Umai Naa · 28 Jan 2018, 21:04 (Ref:3796478)

Agreed. He needs credibility.

Could be a good gig for young(ish) Matthew Radisich who is getting back into motor racing in his late 20s and nearly a decade long break from race cars?

Where does the budget come from?

Umai Naa · 27 Apr 2018, 06:52 (Ref:3817638)

I'm struggling to see how income is generated.

$5k to enter their top line category of the competition for the chance to win "$600,000 funding to race in the full 2019 Dunlop Super2 Series" So in a simplified world they're gunna need to find 120 starters willing to depart with $5kto break even on this prize.

Who is behind this thing?

What was that other driver search competition, Chance of a Lifetime? From memory that ended badly, didn't it?

Umai Naa · 27 Apr 2018, 07:34 (Ref:3817645)

They all generally have a short lifespan.

You've got more chance of negotiating a cheaper deal on a leased seat, than winning the big prize.

ADS to run at Perth in Super2.

**GTRMagic** · 12 Dec 2018, 10:27 (Ref:3869635)

And the winner is... An American...

Jam3s · 12 Dec 2018, 10:47 (Ref:3869641)

Ouch, Aussies in their home grown sport outclassed by a yank. Hope he does well next season, be good to have another foreigner in the sea of Aussies and Kiwi's.

Sandgroper · 12 Dec 2018, 13:23 (Ref:3869671)

oh wow BURN to the locals.

Good Luck to him

Not giving it to an Aussie actually gives this whole thing a huge amount of credibility as being truly impartial and unbiased.

Umai Naa · 13 Dec 2018, 00:12 (Ref:3869804)

I couldn't see in the rules where it states that the gig must go to an Australian, so fair play as far as I'm concerned.

leothedrummer · 13 Dec 2018, 01:03 (Ref:3869809)

Saw some pretty extreme backlash about it not being an Australian. Made me think, I wonder how many Kiwis have taken part and if the same response would stand if one of them won?

Axeman444 · 13 Dec 2018, 01:14 (Ref:3869810)

I take it the "Aussie" means a driver search in Australia, not specifically for Australians. If he was funded to drive in the States then that would be an issue, but to be funded to drive here, all good
