    New Job

    Ur getting around abit tosh.... IT -> Auto -> Recruitment. Ur ass must be dragging on the floor by now
  2. I wonder how many drivers are trying to hit the apex at turn 1 during peakhour traffic
  3. Nothing too spectacular, well apart from the handful of <10sec VLT's. Apart from that its your usual pulsar, celica, 323, civic type crap. WSID need to start handing out free tickets to the main workshops around Sydney to try and get a good handful of quality cars to bring in the crowds.
  4. Not as expensive as the repair bill if you don't stop But yes it is a very expensive area, I can see why people leave it to the last thing to mod.
  5. What safety mods are required to race? ie could I turn up in a totally standard VE Commodore?
  6. If it's on (and that's a big IF due to the crap weather of late) i'll be there spectating. At present i'd say its 25% likely to go ahead.
  7. Yup they look great, hopefully last weekends results weren't a one off because i'd love to see DJR stick around for a while yet as 1 of the original Ford teams.
  8. Whilst on colour schemes i'm not a huge fan of HRT's new red, it's more of a glossy bright orange than a red. Well that's how it appeared to look on tv anyhow. HRT should be red red, like Ferrari.
  9. I wonder which Ford teams will be first to get budget cuts....
  10. 36gb of mpeg to edit thru.... hrmm Go Skaifey!!!!
  11. Would it be fair to say that you had an easier chance of passing because it takes a little while for your turbo to boost up compared to say a stocker running at 12psi?
  12. What was the procedure for the test? What did they do...
  13. Just threw up some hires pics of the Spyker Team testing at Barcelona & Silverstone a couple of weeks ago on my personal webspace. Not sure if they are old news but some nice pics anyway. You can view them HERE (I have 85 in total these are the best looking pics of those)
  14. Spend the money it would take to buy an R33 RB26 on rebuilding your R32 RB26 and it will be better than the R33 RB26 (did that make sense?)
  15. The tyres need to have the same rolling diameter otherwise the 4wd can playup.
  16. They won't be worth squat when their is no oil left in the world
  17. Great job Chris however im disappointed that the 'say no to concrete' sticker has been removed
  18. I pulled the fuse once before a dyno run. Drove the car for an entire 100m in rwd, about 25m of that was black marks. I put the fuse back in immediately
  19. A major gripe I have with WSID which was evident this past wed nite was that lanes 2 + 3 (1 is always empty) are always only half full. But then lanes 4 + 5 + 6 wrap 16x around the pits carpark when their is plenty more cars that could fit in lanes 2 + 3. It's not as if the organisers are trying to seperate 9sec v8's against 16sec corolla's otherwise the 8-9sec VL's would be in lane 2 as well.
  20. www.cacklingpipesphotography.com and 2 of my favs
  21. Probably best Wicked Wednesday of racing i've seen in around 6mths. I miss seeing the Pac/Rigoli Rotars but the swag of quick VL's lately is quickly satisfying me.
  22. I have my engine sitting on the floor in the garage and it looks like the biggest pos that was ever made. Just looking at all the bits n pieces all over the place makes me nervous to touch anything.
