Its almost that time of the year for us WA'ers for Motorvation. Can't wait, Ive been to the last 5 or so and its always fun.

I just saw the list of all the cars for this year - http://www.motorplex.com.au/motorvation/Listing%20Pits.pdf - and I noticed Ramon you got both your cars entered this year, sweeet man I'll definitely come say hi.

I searched through the list, and there's only one XR6 Turbo being entered hah. I guess its mainly about V8's and muscle, but yeah

Anyways if your entering your car let us know so I can come and say hi

I'll be heading along for a look this year, havent been for a couple now!!

Is it DCVIN entered again this year as the only one?

Just noticed that there's an F6 in there too.

The F6 Typhoon and the WRX are both Ramons (wrxrw on these forums). Looking forward to seeing the Typhoon after all the go-fast-bits have been added to it! :) :)

They could have had [XR 61 WA] entered right alongside Ramon's [F6F] but from what I can gather we (Perth-WRX-champion club for last few years) got a bit jipped. We submitted our entry forms months ago and one minute I was in, the next I wasnt.. Some seriously tough WRX's / STi's missed out to.

I know my car isnt seriously modded but regardless it would have been sporting fmic, edit, rims, tint etc.

I know of several people pulling out due to mates not getting in (and really whats the point if your not camping with your mates).

In the end I was offered "Performance Park" with a few of the perth wrx crew. Basically $150 to get close parking with 49 other nice cars and 1 security guard watching over them. They got told where to stick it

Apparently our organiser got told those of us who missed out would get free camping passes for friday and saturday nights but we'll see...

But whatever happens I look forward to seeing WRXRW and F6F together. Are we gonna see an antilag display from F6F Ramon??

There were a couple of nice utes from proUTES that missed out as well that should have been accepted. I think they need to review their entry standreds to make it fair for everyone.

There will be a BA Tonner Turbo there with the proUTES crew. Its worth a look.

I would have entered and would have added to the XR6T numbers but am not home for another couple of months. There's allways next year.

I think they need to review their entry standreds to make it fair for everyone.

Agreed. I just had another quick look through the list and theres close to 20 people entering two cars or more (in one case 5!!). All well and good if you have totally different or genuinely special cars but IMHO I dont think its ok allowing 1 person to enter 3 1988 VL's. I have no doubt they are quality cars but you coulda have a top notch VL and 2 different cars and enterants!

Got some good news today though. Apparently the Perth WRX organiser was able to get a few extra camping passes for Friday and Saturday night and I scored one of them so if anyones around the Perth WRX guys look for the guy wearing some FPV pride

also agreed and is the same reason some clubs are withdrawing entry this year...despite having a large variety of high quality vehicles on display (from e series to b series) we were told our cars were too boring/plain for the show.

Seems unless they are highly, highly modified then they aren't interested

I've heard the cost is going up this year as well for spectator entry
