From the President

Ok, I started writing this in April and now it’s June, good

grief, where does the time go. As long as you didn’t get

scammed by an April fool’s joke then things are looking

good. The first round of the state series was run at

Sandown with high temperatures and smoke from the

bush fires. We had an oversubscribed grid consisting of

about 30 overs and 10 unders. Luke Grech-Cumbo being

very consistent and rebuilding an engine after Friday

practice (yes just like last year) but still managed to take

out the Overs and Stephen Zourkas taking out the Unders.

With some very close racing and very hot cars, all must be

congratulated for a great event. In case you didn’t know,

all of the categories put forward a donation to buy all the

flaggies and fire marshalls extra drinks for our

appreciation for standing out in the heat. A big thank you

must go out to all the officials for well just being there and

more importantly doing a great job.

It's now a couple of weeks down the path - yes it takes

me that long to right this up (not my strong area) and

Phillip Island has been run and won with Luke taking home

the chocolates again in the Overs and Stephen also taking

home some chockies in his victory in the Unders. With

forty cars on the grid it was a great weekend. Again, it’s

great to see IPRA Vic is still consistent with good entry

numbers at state rounds.

Just want to bring up a subject about safety around the

pits, yes I can see you all rolling your eyes back into your

head muttering “here we go again in this over policed

world we live in”, but this is more just a heads up at this

stage. The powers that be are concerned about the way

some people are getting their cars on and off trailers - we

have all seen it before - the guy that has the bricks and jack

stands balancing the car/trailer and race car on a knife

edge and cringing whilst waiting for something to happen.

These are not the only concerns from the powers above –

it’s also the big rigs with the big trucks that have tail gates

with cars on them that are not always secure and it’s only

going to be a matter of time until we have an accident in

this area. You know what that will mean - loading docks,

high vis jackets, cones, team members watching nobody

wants this, it will just a big pain in the arse, so to all, please

be careful out there and make sure that you have a safe

system for loading and unloading and hopefully things will

stay the same as they are now.

A reminder to all about the upcoming Nationals being

hosted at Baskerville Tasmania on 15 – 17 November. An

expression of interest form is available by going to

http://ipraaus.com.au/ and Facebook updates are also

being posted on 2019 IPRA Nationals page. Recent

announcements have included a 5% discount on the Spirit

of Tasmania for vehicle transport and a private practice

day being held at Symmons Plains on Monday

18/11/2019. We hope to see many of our IP Vic members

heading across for the event.

Cheers

Pistons Rule!

From the editor

Hi Everyone!

Back from Perth after a year long assignment, and the old body is struggling to get up to ‘temp’! Geez it’s been cold! Clearly the weather was a highlight of our time in WA, and we will miss it. One thing I won’t miss are the drivers. It’s a bit like the opposite to Melbourne – people are quite courteous and cautious. Felt much safer on my motorbike. However… oh they can be frustrating which they openly admit to. Number one key issue with Perth drivers is merging – they just don’t. What you do is fly down the entry ramp, put your blinker on, then near stop. Or, make it look like you’re going to merge, but decide at last minute it’s not safe, so you backout, turn the blinker off, then realise you have no more track and veer into the traffic anyway. Another one is the sun. I drove on the Mitchell Freeway home each night from the office, and if it was a sunny day, you would

be flying along at the posted 80 to then be hit with 1000s of brake lights. The reason? The sun is in their eyes. So, you brake suddenly, and do 40k’s until you get the visor down, find your sunnies, etc. Did my head in. Rain? Automatically take 20-30 k’s off the dial for that, as the road could be slippery. The traffic lights don’t help either. Most are not sensing traffic and changing to suit. So, you will hit a red light, then sit there for 4-5 minutes. Long enough for Taxi drivers to fall asleep! No joke. Then in that time, no one has actually crossed through the intersection. It’s a complete waste of time. Turn left anytime with care? Nope. You need a turn left arrow which might flash every ten minutes. I can go on….

The magazine is a combo of Autumn and Winter sorry. The first 3 rounds come and went at a pace I couldn’t process. Have included a tech article on tank engines. Tank engines you say? Well, you will see the Yanks built some weird things in the war other than bombs. Unfortunately, we don’t have detailed race reports for the round 2 and 3. Instead I have included round reviews. Stay safe everyone. On and off the track.

Race Reports

Up the Guts Tour to Darwin

Well, what can I say, what a trip!

Everything, from the preparation

leading up to the event, the drive up

and the racing was BIG. This all started

with two pissed mates standing in

front of a BBQ when one gets this

stupid idea, “hey why don’t we go to

Darwin to watch the supercars and

have a bit of a holiday while where

there?”. Then one of these pissed

blokes tells Peta (My wife) “hey Gaz

and I have a great idea; we’re going to

the super cars next year”.

With this Peta remarks “Oh are you

now, what to race or to watch??”

With this Knackers remarks “can you

race up there?” to which I reply ”well

maybe, but it’s not that easy” “Let’s

do it” says Knackers! A couple of days

go past I think it’s just a pipe dream

and it will go away, but Knackers is on

it, and gives a little more of a push,

and before you know it plans are

being put into place and the rest, as

they say, is history. To this day I still

shake my head and can’t believe it just

happened just like that.

The trip up was mainly faultless – we had a three-car convoy for the long drive spread over four and half days.

We had overnight stops at Port Augusta, Erldunda, Tenant Creek and Daly Waters, meeting the Braunes and

Moloney gang a couple of times along the way. It was great to at last arrive in Darwin, dump the car off at the

track and then meet up with the rest of the family and friends who took the easy

option and flew up. We spent a couple of days

doing touristy things around Darwin with a lot of

food and beverages of course and enjoyed the

sunshine and warmth.

On Thursday afternoon I was back to the track, a

little bit of paperwork, scrutineering, setting up and

then, of course, cleaning the car. Then to my

surprise, the organisers come around with a

$500.00 cheque as tow money. With an entry fee of

only $260.00 for three days of racing including your

marquee, I say to myself “how good is this?”.

Friday morning comes around, an early start being

on track by 8.45am and its already 30 odd degrees.

So off we go for free practice trying to learn the

track as I go, I would get one section right and then

stuff up the next. But we get though the session

without a hitch, make a couple of adjustments to

the car (and driver), fuel her up and we’re ready to

go again. Qualifying comes around and out we go

again, still trying to get the best out of the car and

track, but always have it in the back of my mind

“don’t break it and don’t bin it”, it’s a long way to

come to watch from the side lines. We qualify 18th

and I must be honest, I was a little disappointed

with this result, but anyway the Torana’s still going

and we have four races ahead of us. By lunchtime

Friday, we’re done, so we watch the Supercars for a

bit and then head back to Darwin for some food and

refreshments, lots of refreshments, you know you

got to keep hydrated up here!

Saturday morning comes around we had a little bit

of a sleep in as it was a 9.25am race start. The heat

is already on the rise. Again out there not only

learning the track, but also learning the other

drivers, who’s aggressive and willing to put it all on

the line, and who’s not. We come home 15th and still

going strong (well in my world strong) and still

looking for improvements to driver and car. Fill her

up with fuel and I’m ready to go again. Then

something strange happens, a lady from Foxtel by

the name of Kylie and cameraman come around

asking questions, and then ask if I would do an

interview. So I’m dripping with sweat and still high

on adrenalin, so I say “sure, when do you want to do

this?”. “Right now” she says and “I said, shit ok, let

me at least wipe the sweat off my face”. So the

interview is done and I ask her “why me, when there

are 37 odd cars here to choose from?” to which she

replies, “well, look around, your car’s the only one

here that seems to have people 2 rows deep taking

photos, I had to come and have a look at what all

the fuss is about”. The Torana did seem to draw a

lot of attention up there on and off the track, every

time we pulled into a servo or caravan park people

came out of the woodwork for a look. It was a little

bit embarrassing at times…my crew might have said

once or twice it was the mullet that was causing all

the commotion…there are a lot of mullets in NT!

So, we do the interview with Kylie who was really

good. She was intrigued about our history with the

car and the involvement of girls, Lauren & Tayla

being a part of the package. I think the interview will

never air, it doesn’t really seem that interesting

does it? But it did air, and my phone went off, with

many from home watching the Foxtel coverage who

had seen the interview and start giving me shit

(what would you expect, I would too). A great day

was had by all, watching the Supercars do their

thing, a few bevs in the trackside Coopers Bar and

then a Jimmy Barnes concert to finish off the

day…can all our state rounds be like this?

Anyway back to racing, Sunday morning is an early

start with an 8.25am 12 lap race. The race went

fantastic and had a great time except it went too

quick, 12 laps felt like 6 laps (how funny is it when

you are having a great race it goes so quick, but

when you’re having a bad race it takes forever for

the chequered flag to come out) . Anyway finished

that race in 11th and to be honest would have been

happy just to put it on the trailer and call it a day,

but in an hour’s time we are lining up again on the

dummy grid, so I was lucky that all I had to do was

fill it up with fuel and away we go. Again, another

great race coming home 8th with not a mark on the

car and running as sweet as it was on Friday

morning; I was one very happy boy. To be honest, I

could have started the weekend in tenth, and would

still have ended up in 8th position, I was never going

to trouble the cars ahead of me

Across the board, our category put on a good show

for the spectators. No surprises with Ray Hislop out

in front for the weekend but there was some great

racing in the field between fellow IP Vic racers Rob

Braune and Keven Stoopman, Darwin local, Tim

Playford, and Zak Hudson from QLD and John

Callegari from WA.

In summary of the race meeting I have two words:

SHIT HOT! I found the track much more challenging

than I expected. There are some high-speed turns

that were pretty hard to convince yourself to go flat

on the gas thru and that front straight is soooooo

long. The people were friendly, the price was right,

and you even get your fuel delivered to your

marquee each day, bloody good stuff!

We spent a few more days in Darwin seeing the

sights, went swimming with a croc, a day trip to

Litchfield Park and plenty of food and bevs before

the long drive home. We timed the trip nicely

stopping at Tailem Bend on Sunday to cheer on Rick

Newman in his beast at the AMRS round, a great

end to the trip.

After clocking up almost 8000km on the Up the Guts

adventure, we’re glad to be home. I want to thank

my friends and family for their support and

encouragement on this trip, Shane (AKA Knackers)

and his trusty Harry Hilux as our tow car, Jodie,

Kayla, Luke, Darcy, Natalie and Ebony and of course

the most important people in my life, Peta, Lauren

and Tayla. Cheers Gary

Design evolution – Ford Mustang

Car designers are an interesting bunch. Heavily influenced by marketing and engineering, what comes out of factory’s at

times could insinuate they are just plain drug attics. There is no better example of this than the Ford Mustang. Extremely

popular now for its retro look, the 2019 version copies the fastback profile of the late 1960’s. But did they get it wrong in

between?

1965 Design brief: “Design a real muscle car”

1985 Design brief: “Mitsubishi

Scorpions are selling well, just

copy that”

2019 Design brief:

“Mmm… best just copy what we first

come up with”

Transporters

Supercar transporters are a

key part of the show and

teams marketing. The

mobile build boards are

now becoming a show

within themselves as they

convoy into towns.

According to Freightliner,

who supply prime movers

for Supercar trailers, the

entire combination of the

current spec transporter

weighs in at 57 tonnes

which is a lot of mass to

carry around the nation.

But if you compare it to NASCAR, it’s less than half the workload, with the average truck accumulating 40-

50,000km’s per annum. Many interstate freight trucks will accumulate this in a couple months.

The Freightliner Argosy is also fitted with a 15-litre Detroit six-cylinder diesel that pumps out 560hp. Other

models are now well over 600hp with 12 speed semi-automatic transmissions. A typically inventory onboard

includes:

• 2 to 6 Supercars

• 66 wheels

• 24 bumpers

• 12 complete doors

• 12 bonnets

• 30 front brake sets

• 18 rear brake sets

• 48 suspension dampers

• 15 door mirrors

• 10 sets of headlights

• 3 steering racks

• 4 gearboxes

• 4 spare engines

Most Supercar transporters split the operations between the A and B trailers. The A-trailer carries all the wheels

and tyres, body panels, spare engines and other bulky items, while the B trailer is allocated for the race cars,

plus other items that can be bundled into moveable storage containers and rolled out on race day. During the

event, the A trailer becomes an office for the technical team members.

Pricing exceeds $1M for an empty kit, but that value triples when you put all the goodies in them.

Bad cars – Trabant

Germany is known for real driver

cars like the BMW M3 and

Porsche 911. But back in the time

of the Cold War, over the wall in

communist East Germany, they

needed a people’s car like the VW

Beetle in the West.

Unlike the precision and intense

engineering Germany is known

for, the manufacturing and design

of the Trabant was really an

afterthought. At higher speeds,

body panels were prone to falling

off, but with 18hp, high speeds

were not common. Oil

consumption on the 2-stroke

motor was another issue, often

flooding the cabin with all sorts of

toxins.

Safety in design? Nope. There was nothing. Many we sold with no seat belts and even brake lights. Interestingly, people

often link the Trabant to Harry Potters car in the movies, which was in fact a Ford Anglia.

Technical

A57 Chrysler Engine

During the Second World War, the

government drew on industry to

assist in the production of military

assets, such as engines, machinery,

vehicles, etc. It was at times a weird

partnership, as you had an ordnance

specialising in blowing things up,

talking to some automotive engineer

who just designed the glove box

hinge of a Chrysler Imperial. No

better example is when Chrysler

were asked to supply an engine for

the M4 Sherman tank.

In true American form, rather than engineer

something tailor made from the ground up,

you just grab the bits you’ve got and make

them bigger. In the case of the A57 engine,

it was a case of just bolting 5 250CU.in L-

head engines together.

The 30 cylinder, 20.5L engine incorporated

a sun gear drive arrangement to pool all the

drive to a common output. Total power was

370hp, but with a low compression of 6.2:1,

it proved quite reliable and very tolerant to

poor fuel, dust and abuse of the War.

Interestingly, Ford also built engines for the

Sherman, but had a very different

approach. Rather than achieving ‘big’ by

bolting engines together, they just scaled

up a V8. And I mean scaled up. 18 litres,

5.4in bore pumping out 500HP using 7.5:1

compression. Makes somewhat more

sense than Chrysler bolting engines

together. Of course, being a big V8 in the

USA meant it would be long before

someone had to fit one to a car….

Above: Each engine unit largely reflected what was being used in cars at the time.

Race Report

Round 1, Sandown

Round one of the Vic State Series for 2019 might have

fallen on the first weekend of Autumn but you could have

been mistaken for feeling like it was still the middle of

summer as the mercury scorched into the high 30s. A

solid field of 39 entries made up the grid. A diverse grid

of nine manufacturers were on show, including Nathan

Robinson’s freshly built E46 BMW, Mark Defanis with his

VF SS Commodore, Glenn Kenneday with his Gold E30,

along with the boss Gary Mckay in his LJ Torana. Dejavu

for Luke Grech-Cumbo in his VX Senator with his team

having to perform an overnight engine rebuild for the

second year running after breaking a valve and damaging

a piston during Friday practice. Fortunately this year the

damage was easier to fix as the team managed to get a

solid 5 hours sleep unlike 2018.

Qualifying was a tricky session with many drivers

scrambling to find space on the busy track after a red flag

was brought out to recover Bruce Hendersons Renault

after a wheel nut failure.

A restart to the session with 10 minutes remaining saw

Luke Grech-Cumbo and Tony Maloney climb to the top

with the all BMW second row of the grid with Glenn

Kenneday and Nathan Robinson ahead of Rob Braune.

Stephen Zourkas was the first of the under 2lt cars with

an impressive time of a 1:23.9.

Matt Logan, Ian McLennan, Mark Defanis and John

Dawson rounding out the top 10.

A second red flag unfortunately would end qualifying

early when James West, Wayne Dekker and Andrew

Morris had a coming together at Turn 1 leaving West’s

car sitting in the infield and debris over the track.

Race one saw an even start off the line from the front

group of cars with Tony Maloney having his nose ahead

into turn 1 with Luke Grech-Cumbo having a deep run

into turn one to retake the lead.

With the top four finishing how they started, some great

battles took place on the greasy hot track with relative IP

newcomer Ian McLennan dropping to 11th on the first lap

however having a nice comeback to finish 5th.

Mark Defanis and his newly built VF Commodore had a

solid first race maintaining his qualifying position to finish

6th.

Matt Logan had an unfortunate retirement with a tail

shaft failure on lap 7, along with Brad Wyatt who’s

overheating issues continued. Rob Braune also had a rare

failure with an oil issue putting his E30 out for the

weekend.

Andrew Morris after having to start from pit lane half a

lap down after an issue drove from last place to finish in

29th.

Paul Grziwotz led Stephen Zourkas home in 12th and 13th

ahead of Velibor Tomic in 17th in the U2L class.

Race 2 was an even jump from the front row with Luke

Just taking the advantage into turn 1 and running away

with an 11 second gap to Tony at the chequered flag.

Glenn Kenneday was an unfortunate retirement from

race 2, which elevated The Victorian IP President to P3

Nathan Robinson had a solid run home in 4th leading the

VF SS of Mark Defanis home in P5.

Persistant gearbox issues didn’t stop Stephen Zourkas

from leaving home Paul Grziwotz by 1 second in the U2L

field with Vel Tomic behind them.

Race 3 was another even start from the front group of

cars with Luke and Tony heading into turn 1 side by side.

Tony Maloney unfortunately had a tyre failure on lap 6

ending his race early.

This left Andrey Morris and Nathan Robinson to have a

solid battle with the pair crossing the line in 2nd and 3rd

separated by only 2 tenths.

Gray Mckay limped home to a lucky 4th after unfortunate

contact with Craig Caspersz who spun into T9 leaving the

red torana with nowhere to go but into the side of him.

Mark Defanis and Ian Mclennan coming home in 5th and

6th after both put in solid drives in their both relatively

new cars.

The U2L order remained unchanged in race 3 with

Zourkas leading home Grziwotz and Tomic in a Honda 1-

2-3.

Round 2 at Phillip Island brought an early start for

the 36 Improved Production competitors, with the

category first on the track for Qualifying just five

minutes after engines could be started.

By the end of Qualifying, former State champion

Nathan Robinson’s E46 M3 took pole position

ahead of current champ Luke Grech-Cumbo in the

HSV Senator. A last lap burst by Andrew Butcher in

his E36 M3 pipped perennial frontrunner Rob

Braune for 3rd, while the big VE of Matt Logan

qualified 5th ahead of Michael Hart’s VS

Commodore. In 6th, Stephen Zourkas’ screaming

Civic was the first Under 2 Litre car, more than three

seconds ahead of Kevin Coulson’s Civic in 17th and

Mark Baldwin’s Civic in 19th.

Fresh from some quick paddock exhaust repairs,

Grech-Cumbo got the jump on Robinson off the line

in Race 1, while Braune had passed Butcher by Turn

1. Craig Caspersz spun in Turn 2 on the first lap,

causing some excitement to the mid-field pack that

successfully avoided him. He battled back to finish

16th. From Lap 1, the first five cars maintained their

positions for the rest of the race: Grech-Cumbo,

Robinson, Braune, Butcher and Logan. Slotting into

6th after qualifying 15th was Andrew Rhodes-

Anderson, whose 6 litre VN Commodore finally

found reliability. Zourkas was 7th in the Civic, ahead

of the big V8s of Mark Defanis’ VF SS and Tony

Moloney’s HQ, with Brad Blunt’s E36 M3 rounding

out the top 10. Among the other 2 litre cars, Bryson

Lloyd finished next in 17th place and Callum Jensen

was 19th in the Peugeot 306.

Race 2 on Sunday morning was a six-lap sprint, with

the first three positions again going to Grech-

Cumbo, Robinson and Braune. As in Race 1,

Robinson recorded the quickest lap of the race but

was unable to complete a pass on Grech-Cumbo.

Robinson’s M3 could catch and challenge the far

more powerful HSV as far as turn 12, but Grech-

Cumbo could shake him loose down the long

straight. Behind them, a spin by Butcher exiting

Honda in Lap 1 shook things up. Rhodes-Anderson

held on to finish 4th ahead of Logan and Zourkas,

with Butcher 7th. In his first weekend in Improved

Production racing, Andrew Tickner’s 5 litre VH

Commodore jumped to 8th, with Blunt finishing 9th

and Hart 10th. Second to Zourkas in the Under 2 litre

was Baldwin in 15th followed by Lloyd in 19th. Adrian

Taranto’s Audi S3 blew a damaged tyre on the

straight and the AWD came in handy as he brought

the car to a stop in the grass comfortably clear of

the wall.

Sunday afternoon’s 10 lap race brought the same

result at the top of the table: Grech-Cumbo a

winner by just over a second from Robinson, with

Braune a second further back. It was 17 second gap

from Braune to Butcher in 4th. Rhodes-Anderson

and Logan held off Zourkas, again 7th in the tiny

Civic. Taranto stormed through the field to take 8th

and mix up the top 10, while Casperz found form

and finished 9th ahead of Blunt. Andrew Morris

finally got fuel problems in his VH Commodore

sorted out and ended the race 11th, while Ian

McLennan crossed in 14th in his VZ Monaro after

overnight engine repairs. After reliability problems

all weekend, Moloney finished 16th, a long way from

the two podium finishes he enjoyed at Sandown in

Round 1. In the 2 litre class, the variety continued

with Baldwin 2nd and Lloyd 3rd, followed by Paul

Grziwotz in his Civic finally getting an untroubled

run with his third engine of the weekend.

The win in Race 3 gave Grech-Cumbo a clean sweep

and left him unbeaten after two rounds of the 2019

season. In the Under 2 litre, Zourkas showed that

the Honda Civic was going to be very difficult to beat

on any track this year.
