Introducing myself

Hi everyone

I'm am from Australia and new to this forum. I've joined in the hope of chatting to more experienced individuals in the art of building your own sports car.
I have a few minis and hoping to build an open wheeler (like the terrapin) for track racing. I hope I can gain some valuable help from the locals

G'Day and welcome to the Madhouse.

As you have found out, there is a wealth of information, and experience on here.

Use the Search facility first, as much of it has been done to death before!

Good luck with your build.



EDIT:

PS... add your Location to your profile. It helps others with their response's.

Assuming that "I'm from Australia" means "I'm in Australia" as opposed to "I'm an Australian who is now in the UK" - then you should also look at OzClubbies (link here) which is the most active of the Australian forums.

New to the forum response

Thanks Everyone, appreciate the welcome notes... to clarify, my name is Vince and yes I am in Australia hence (possibly) the tardy responses

I will take you up on the offers and I apologise in advance if I do not follow appropriate etiquette as I am new to this so willing to learn.

Thank you again

Welcome!

You might want to add what state (geographic not mental) you are in to your location as this may well effect the answer to many questions you might ask.
