Aussie Racing Cars is an Australian motor racing category. Essentially a motorcycle powered Silhouette racing car class, it was created by former touring car racer Phil Ward, influenced by the American Legends category.
The Aussie Racing Car combines current racing technology and performance in a one-design class where all cars are mechanically identical with strict rules in place to maintain that position. Five different body styles are permitted. Originally only 1940 Ford Coupé and Holden FJ body styles were available, with Ford AU Falcon and Holden VY Commodore styles which replicate V8 Supercars later made available. A Toyota Aurion body shape was launched in 2008, followed by a Holden Cruze in 2012 and a "Euro GT" in 2013.
Cars are constructed on a purpose built steel tubular space frame chassis with integral roll cage construction designed and approved to stringent engineering specifications. The lightweight composite body is a faithfully designed caricature of its full size counterpart featuring opening doors, boot and lift off front section. Powered by a 1.2 litre 125 bhp (93 kW) twin cam 16 valve engine sourced second-hand from used Yamaha FJ1200 motorcycles that revs to 11500 rpm. The 450 kg all up weight provides a high power-to-weight ratio that allows the car to reach speeds in excess of 200 km/h. Lap times achieved at Oran Park Raceway are within six seconds of a V8 Supercar. They feature fully adjustable suspension geometry, huge brakes and controlled competition tyres that produce high grip levels. All cars are hand built in the Aussie Racing Car facility and supplied ready to race.
The cockpit layout is purpose built and fitted with a five point racing harness. The steering requires only one turn lock to lock and minimal steering movement during racing. The sequential gear lever is close to the steering wheel and the carbon fibre dash displays the necessary instrumentation. The chassis design incorporates simplicity in suspension adjustment to cater for all drivers likings including castor/camber, sway bar, roll centre and ride height etc. Brakes have simple front to rear bias adjustment.

Perhaps an adaptation of a Peter Benchley novel for land-locked canines, the Great (Black) White (and Brown) Aussie demonstrates its fearful jaw strength, intimidating the photographer so much the photo was blurred.

For the none Aussie’s out there let me explain what is a Outhouse? To us Aussie Outhouse, or Dunny is Aussie slang for a Toilet or Bathroom. Back in the olden day’s all Toilets where outside the house, calling it the Outhouse. This capture shows how real it was back in the olden day’s when you needed to go to the Toilet with the spiders and snakes….. My hasn’t things changed these day’s.
