April 2006 - Back in the Game!
After a less than perfect start to the season in
missing the first round of the NSW state
championships at Wakefield Park, Lasts and Lasts
have their sights set on the next round of the
championships in just 3 short weeks.
Eastern Creek is home to round 2 and is also the
site of the accident in round 2 of the 2005
championships that took Lasts and Lasts out for the
rest of the season. Whilist some may view this as
an omen, Lasts and Lasts are looking forward to
making up for past wrongs.
But they aren't coming un-prepared. Testing and
practice are on the books, as well as some much
needed adjustments to the little blue elfin. What
Lasts and Lasts hopes to bring to the 2006 is a
more competitive package with the ability to
furfill all of that latent potential that the team
has been suffering with over the last 2
seasons.
The gearbox problem that held them out of the
first round has been well and truly delt with and
the car is now back together and complete, ready
for the first oppertunity to go testing and get
some impressive times out!

progress of the team, please check out Kirsty's
