Flat Out Off Road Racing Team has returned from the Harvey Short Course Off Road Race with great result of second in class. It was a great event and hopefully the Western Desert Racers can secure the venue for next year. The Landcruiser 80 series performed well and got quicker as the night went on, with some good close competition. We decided not to compete in the tin top shootout due to a minor oil leak which was a fire hazard.

The photos page has been updated with tin tops and buggies and a video to follow shortly

Flat Out Off Road Racing Team will be contesting the season ending Harvey Short Course on Saturday November 24th. The teams Extreme 4WD Class 80 Series Landcruiser has been prepped and fitted with extra lights to help guide the car in its first night race. This will be the first time the team will compete in a short course event and this is a challenge the team is looking forward to. For more information on the Harvey Short Course Event, see www.westerndesertracers.com or www.offroadoz.net.au

The Flat Out Off Road Racing Teams Extreme 4wd Class 80 Series Landcruiser will be at the Perth 4wd Show at McCallum Park this weekend, 16th-18th November. The car will be on display at one of our sponsors, Raw 4x4s stand. The car is as it was at the Gascoyne Dash, with the single Raw Nitro Max Shocks all round, but it has been washed for the occasion. For more information about the 4wd show see www.4wdshow.com.au and for more information on Raw 4x4 Shocks see www.raw4x4.com.au

Race two for the new car has been another success, with a first in class and 5th outright. The Gascoyne Dash would have to be the toughest offroad race in WA if not the country. The 500km two day race has everything from rocky outcrops, washouts, 160km's of river bed and fast station tracks. The Landcruiser performed almost faultlessly, we lost time due to a low idle, this caused stalling on hard braking, being the only mechanical issue on day one. We also lost about 10 minutes on Day two when we thought we lost drive to the front diff, stopping and checking to find all was ok. This was the first time the team has completed this race so a cautious approach was taken which proved successful (until the flying finish!!!). The Gassy Dash was a great race, congratulations to the Gascoyne Offroad Racing Club for the well organised event.

The new 6.0 litre 80 Series Landcruiser's first race at Hyden Humps has been completed with great success, a 2nd in Extreme 4wd class, and it performed faultlessly. Being a totally different car to race, compared to the previous 4.5 litre engine, a few races will be needed to sort out the driving style to benefit fully from the increase of power. Preparations are now underway for the next event being the Gascoyne Dash at Carnarvon, Brett Young will be navi with Justine driving the transporter, this race will be a good test for the Landcruiser.

Hyden Humps preparations are gong well with the 80 Series Landcruiser, testing and setting up of the suspension is now in the final stages with various combinations of spring rates and shocks being tried.

We will be having Lee Coupe navigating for us at Hyden, helping out if we have any issues with the car, giving Justine a break for this event. While we would like to be competitive in this race, the main focus will be the set up of the car for next season. We are looking forward to the event as it has been a full 12 months of rebuilding, with lots of changes to the car the Hyden track will find any area’s that may need attention
The Car is now back from the Dyno Tune and has been taken for a short test run. A short video of this has been posted on the Race Car build up page, which can be accessed by clicking on the image below or by following the links from the technical specifications page
