Carbon lifeBMW’s Megacity Vehicle will be theworld’s first volume-produced vehicle witha passenger cell made from carbon.Slated for 2013 release the LifeDrive

architecture opens a new chapter in auto-motive lightweight design.Importantly it allows the offset of the

e x t r a 2 5 0 - 3 5 0 k g o f w e i g h ttypically found in electrically poweredvehicles.BMW Group is focusing on the

innovative hi-tech material carbon fibrereinforced plastic (CFRP).The LifeDrive concept consists of two

horizontally separated, independentmodules.The Drive module integrates the bat-

tery, drive system and structural and crashfunctions into a single construction withinthe chassis.Its partner, the Life module, consists

primarily of a high-strength and extremelylightweight passenger cell made fromCFRP.Furthermore, the new vehicle architec-

ture opens the door to totally new pro-duction processes which are both simplerand more flexible, and use less energy.

THE seventh round of the 2010 ShannonsNationals Motor Racing Championships onAugust 14-15 sees a return to Queensland’sMorgan Park Raceway with the meeting set tobe the first held on a newly extended circuit.After much hard work by the circuit’s

custodians, the Warwick District Sporting CarClub and a small army of volunteer workers,the Darling Downs venue has been length-ened from the previous 2.1km to a total of3km, with the circuit’s characteristics now bestdescribed as fast and flowing.Competitors at the Shannons Nationals will

be the first to sample the new circuit underrace conditions when they hit the track forprivate practice.Gold Coast based Terry Knight is one of the

leading drivers in the Porsche GT3 CupChallenge presented by Mission Foods, and heis suitably impressed by the recent changes tohis home circuit.‘‘It’s all a bit secret squirrel at the moment

as nobody has been able to do any hot lapsaround the new circuit, but by foot and at60km/h in my Cayenne, the layout looksamazing,’’ said Knight.‘‘It’s going to be a lot more demanding, a

much higher average speed, and there willdefinitely be more overtaking.‘‘Last year when we raced at Morgan Park

with 17 Porsches around the 2.1km longcircuit, it was very difficult to overtake.‘‘We used to only just get into fourth gear

for a couple of seconds, but now the terminalspeed will be a lot higher, there are a fewmore clever corners in the circuit.

‘‘Coming up on to the pit straight, the carswill get a bit light, and at the end of thestraight we will probably be carrying 30 or40km/h more speed, so turn one is going to bea real test under brakes.‘‘I’m very much looking forward to racing

there, in years to come it will be like thePhillip Island of the Darling Downs, everyonewill want to race there.’’The meeting will not only feature the

Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge presentedby Mission Foods, but also the AustralianManufacturers Championships, and theAustralian saloon car series.Completing the six-category program and

making their Morgan Park debut will be theFormula 3 Australian drivers championship,the Kerrick Sports Sedan Series, and theAustralian Superkart Championships.

DAILY OPINION

I HAVE never seen as manyhigh-powered, expensive cars atMorgan Park Raceway as I didyesterday.

I was impressed to see all theteams dressed in uniforms and areasonable crowd watching theaction.

The first point of call was thegate where the Warwick ApexClub was on duty with fellow clubmembers from Ipswich andSandgate.

Welcomed by volunteer work-ers, I then saw some racing andspoke to some of the drivers andofficials.

Some of the classes hadone-hour races so this wasn’tjust a Sunday morning drive.

From Warwick District SportingCar Club members Dan O’Maraand Noel Henderson to NewZealand driver Inky Tulloch andAdelaide CAMS official LuigiDeluca, everyone was ravingabout the new 3km circuit.

While we often talk about thehorse power aspect of life inWarwick, no one can under-estimate the economic benefit ofany sport. One such sport is golf.

At the weekend, 24 membersof the Jimboomba Social GolfClub were also in town for ninerounds on Sunday and 18 yester-day, bringing money into thetown.

Perks of the jobI wouldn’t mind getting into

politics.Talk about a cream job.It’s the only job I know where

the employer (you and me) has tomake an appointment to see theemployee, and if you’re lucky youmight get to see the secretary.It’s the only job where the em-

ployees get to name their ownwage and go on world tours asthey see fit and make the boss(you and me) pay for it.

It’s the only job where, if youare “sacked”, you can go and get ahighly paid job, and at the sametime receive a sizable pensionfrom your previous employer (youand me).Slim Dusty wrote a song appro-

priate to this time. It’s called Elec-tion Day.

Support appreciatedOn behalf of the McGrath Foun-dation I would like to thank the

Warwick Historical MotorcycleClub, the Biker’s for a BrighterFuture, Leonard’s Trading Storeand Christo’s Coffee Shop for theiramazing support and generousfinancial donations.It is wonderful to have help tomake the community aware of therole of breast care nurses, who actas patient advocates and co-ordi-nate care for women and theirfamilies with breast cancer.A major part of my role is in-creasing breast awareness asbreast cancer doesn’t care how old

you are, where you live, whetheryou’re a career woman or a moth-er.Breast cancer is a disease thatcurrently affects one in eightAustralian women of all ages andbackgrounds.It is people like yourself whowill keep the McGrath Foundationrunning and provide breast carenurses to women and their fami-lies in our community, so onceagain thank you.

There’s plenty of timeto acquire new skills,

make somemistakes andlearn from them to getwhere youwant to be.

nal question is not simply a soleoccupation.I think the answer to that ques-tion should include words likehappy, challenged, inspired, pro-ductive, rewarded and finallysuccessful. If you find yourselfusing any of the earlier words, Ithink you can quite easily crossoff the word successful.So, I imparted this small piece

of non-expert sisterly advice onthe one freaking out on the otherend of the phone – the best way towork out what you should be

AFTER spending 53 minutestalking to a very stressedlittle sister the other night,

I started to wonder why studentsare put under so much unneces-sary pressure.“I don’t know what I want to do

– I’m running out of time!” shestressed.My 15-year-old sibling was

talking about her future career.The old question “What do youwant to be when you grow up?”had finally caught up with herand she felt she needed to answerit ASAP.The thing I tried to make herrealise was that even if she pickssomething she wants to do, she’llprobably change her mind four orfive times before she even grad-uates from high school.That was, after all, what hap-

pened with me.I have “wanted to be” every-

thing including a physiotherapist,teacher, architect, clown (OK, thatwas when I was six) and more bythe time I started my final year ofhigh school.I read somewhere that the

average person has at least threecareer changes in their adultlives. Three.So who knows? Maybe there’s

hope for me in the circus, yet.When I told her this, little sis

simply said, “But I don’t evenknow what number one is yet,how am I going to get to three?”.I think the answer to the origi-

doing for the rest (or at least achapter of) your life is to workout what you’re good at and thenask yourself what jobs would suityour talents.

OpportunityaboundsOur generation is definitely oneof instability.I can’t think of a single friendfrom school who is doing exactlywhat they wanted to do at Year 12graduation when we spoke aboutwhere we’d be in 10 years – andthat’s OK.Some left uni midway through,some decided to travel and somedecided to work at a job theydidn’t necessarily like to savesome dough.Luckily, as members of Gener-

ation Y we have the luxury totake our time to work out the rest

of our lives.We have so many opportunitiesopen to us which weren’t avail-able to our older counterparts.For one thing, young womenare no longer limited to a handfulof careers including nursing,teaching and secretarial work.We can do pretty much anyth-ing we want.Which is both empowering and

intimidating, thinking of thepossibilities.So, I told her, give a few thingsa go and if you don’t like it or itdoesn’t work out, try somethingdifferent.There’s plenty of time to ac-

quire new skills, make somemistakes and learn from them toget where you want to be.And if you still don’t knowwhere that is, who cares?Call me a naive Gen Yer, but Ireckon everyone will eventually.

AFTER another outstandingdisplay of defensive football, theRedbacks have just missed out ona finals berth.Finishing equal third on winsand losses, an inferior percentagehas placed them in fifth and un-fortunately in mothballs.A scoreline of 31.22 (208) to onesolitary point was Lockyer Val-ley’s lowest ebb of the season.There was absolutely no answ-er to the Redbacks midfield set-up where Kurt Millard, BrendanIles and Clinton McErvale wenton a ball-gathering spree off AlexCutmore’s ruck play.Whenever Lockyer did force

the ball forward into their ownscoring zone, Tony Chandler,Andrew Bardsley and Steve Mar-tin stepped up and pushed theReddies straight back into attack.Assistant coach Jason Wrightmade a personal statement kick-

ing 13 goals and assisting in manyothers.Wright led for the ball perfectlyand had bullet-like passes fromIles and the Millard brothers,Kurt and Kris, hitting him on thechest.On the rare occasions the ballwent astray, Vaughn Skelly andMark Mills crumbed the packsand set up scoring plays.Although an all-team effort tomake the September games didn’tquite fall into place, the guys thathave put it together this year andcan stand proud.Brendan Iles’ captaincy wasflawless and the attitude of theentire squad that stayed for thehard yards make it easy to boastthat you are a Redbacks suppor-ter.Goal scorers: J Wright 13, Bren-

dan Iles 6, Kris Millard 5, V Skelly2, S. Day 2, B Bodsworth, K Heier

and M Mills 1 each.Best: Kurt Millard, T Chandler,

J Wright, V Skelly, C McErvale, BIles and Kris Millard.

AFTER first competing in motorsport at the age of 14, Warwicksaloon car driver Gary Beggs isnow aiming to drive at Bathurstnext year.Beggs was the sole Warwickdriver in the Shannons Nationalsat the weekend.“I raced on the dirt at MorganPark at the age of 14 when Dad(Hughie) was sponsoring somedrivers when he had the pub atSandy Creek,” Beggs said.After a break from the sport for10 years, Beggs is back and start-ed 23rd on the grid on Saturday inhis EA Falcon in the saloon carsection.He moved up nine places tofinish 14th in a field of 30.In his second race, he started14th and had moved up to ninth

before a small bump from anothercar pushed him off the track andhe finished 16th.While all saloon cars raced

together, Beggs was in the old carsaloon section and after twoevents was in second place.His best time in the first tworaces at the Shannons Nationalswas one minute, 30.9575 secondsfor the new 3km circuit.After going well in the salooncar event at the weekend, Beggsis now aiming to graduate from a(CAMS) provisional to an openlicense so he can compete in thelead-up races to major events oncircuits such as Bathurst and theGold Coast.He does all his own work on thecar with sponsorship supportfrom his employer, David Cassels,of Graeme Collins Automotive,who helps with tyres, fuel and

parts.CAMS technical commissionerLuigi Deluca was at Morgan ParkRaceway for the first time andsaid the facility looked great.“I love the way the long cornersflow,” he said.“It would be fantastic to drivearound.”Warwick District Sporting CarClub member Dan O’Mara was avolunteer at the event yesterdayand said he was happy how thetrack had come up after the workon the extension had been fin-ished.Toowoomba driver Jimmy

Mann was in Formula 3 and ratedthe track highly after moving to anew class after two successivestate championship wins in For-mula Ford.“I was doing up to 215 km/hr at

the end of the straight,” he said.
