    Chris loved his karting, only stopped when they shut down the Gold Coast track, started at 14 in Junior Nat light then at 16 went straight into Rotax light, he did really well in both, hence approx 70 trophies. Beautiful clean driver, Yes always drove a Arrow kart, he saved for his first Kart himself. Really good bonding and quality time with his Dad who was his pit crew, they were away every weekend racing- had some great times together along with dissapointments. lots of good stories and memories. made lots of great friends.

    Well- the wheels have been fully restored and polished, OMG they are beautiful.
    They are going to look soooo good on HAH44 when she comes back from her respray.
    Will finish her off beautifully.

    You better seal that polished metal up nice and quick so it doesn't go dull! Wouldn't want to ruin such an amazing finish!

    We were advised not to put a lacquer coat on them as it cracks, as they will be buffed regularly and kept in the garage, rarely used, they are better left as is, if we've been wrongly advised please let us know, thanks

    I think mickey doesn't mean a laquer, just a wax/sealant to protect the shine and help keep them clean.

    Thumbs up HAH44 update on respray

    HAH44 is looking brilliant, can't thank Bill from "Burleigh Smash Repair" enough, she is coming up mint.
    We are so happy,we have the trailer ready to take her to Sydney for the Nationals.
    "Chris made us so proud, during his sort life, now it's our chance to make him proud"
    It was his dream to have her perfect and take her to the Nationals, she will be both perfect and at the Nationals- Hooray we are getting there. Here are some progress photo's





    Just thought I'd share a photo of how HAH44 looked when Chris bought her !!!
