[AuzKangaroo94]

G'day Racers, a while back (last year) I made a announcement of a racing competition I was getting prepared to start-up however some things got in the way etc... I then decided to postpone it until this year. Well here it is the Official announcement of my Racing Competition. The Dunlop Championship, a Gr.3 Racing League for Australian & New Zealand Racers, reason for it being only those 2 nations is due to time zones and internet connection reasons.
