Wondering if there are any 4-door hsv's going as we seem to be in a minority here on a hsv forum?

Pretty sure Rob78 will be there or I'll drag him along by the ear!!
This is because I'll be reporting for Girlracer.co.uk anyway on Fiona Leggate's progress and will also have my full-time journo hat on to report for the Courier's motoring supplement.

There is also a "HSV GTS" going and that is not strictly a VXR, I think the owner said something like im their big brother
Recon the owners of VXR's in all shapes and sizes would love to see some of the 4 doors, maybe Stu can help?

Best speak to Aussie over on VXRRegister.Com as he's arranging it all - I think the tickets are being sent out this week so you'll have to be quick

TBNT, leave it to you Vauxhall peeps to support the Monaro this year, we hsv'ers did it last year thanks to the courtesy & hospitality of Vauxhall/EE.

The race is BTCC not British GT (no Monaro's in that), The idea was for VXR owners of all cars to get a dedicated parking area and reduced price admission (courtesy of Vauxhall). I am sure any HSV's would fall into that grouping. More the merrier!!

What did you pick-up.... If it's a VXR, have a word with Aussie over on VXRRegister, he might be able to squeeze you into the VXR Wolf-pack
