Still the V8 utes
Final round is Winton.... according to most sources but there has been talk of further rounds for the year.
there is a secret facebook page set up for ute teams/members/crews of present and past
about the finale at winton.
there may be old and current ute models allowed to run in the finale.
meaning any ute they ran over the past 19 years. VU on (VT/VX) and AU on.
I was considering doing this livery up in the 1:24 to send down there for the finale

He's pulled out of Philip Island now :/
Will be running at Winton next, which is the last V8 ute race ever.... kind of, maybe.
19-21 May
I am hoping to get there myself
Looks like my signage might be running on a QLD X3 excel the same weekend.
May 20 is the first round for the QLD X3 series and I am on the MTAQ excel driven by David Wood.. that car will also be featured in the MTAQ magazine, will get a copy and post the pics.
