    What a day my first run I did a 1:30.3 that put me 6th fastest outright including 4wd cars.
    The car was faultless.
    2nd run had an gear selection problem but managed to get it off the line eventually 3rd & 4th run clutch slip.

    Not sure on the end result yet but I still had a great day the car was awesome apart for the clutch frying. Set a new record again for a Ferrari at Willunga Hillclimb. Should dip into the 1:20's next year with more power and some more downforce.

    Very cool, well done. Can you post an inboard video?
    Hillclimbing is a thrilling sport. No warm up lap, no run off, have to get it right on first try.

    I've not uploaded any footage yet Vbox is not the best quality so I was not that bothered about it this time, looking to upgrade the cameras for next meeting.

    I love the hillclimb it's the best buzz I've ever had in a car it ****s all over circuit racing.
    So many things going on at once and one wrong move and you are in the wall or in the armco or over it 😳

    It's the closest thing to riding fast on a well set up bike with soft tyres same deal make a mistake and you're in trouble.

    It's the only 360c in Australia on rally registration.

    Cool - what means this type of registration? can you drive it only during events on public roads, or also anytime anywhere for training?
    best regards from Switzerland

    Awesome, thanks for sharing Steve. I love to see Ferraris (or any exotic) actually used and raced in this manner.

    You can test drive, go to the event and drive home, go for tyres or drive to display/event.

    Best to log book the trip prior to leaving and get the CAMS permit number for events or call the place you are going via just in case you get stopped. The car needs to be ADR compliant also.

    It's great fun to drive on the road and Hillclimbs are a awesome.

    Thanks mate I love the challenge and it's been very reliable apart from a few thing like the alternator that once sorted are trouble free. You can run a challenge on road tyres with no problem at all just size the tyre profile correctly.
