  1. The Jax Quickfit decals down the side are hard to miss... I'll keep an eye out. Bit cheeky taking it from out there.
  2. Speaking from experience... fourth lap and the 595RS are at their peak. These tyres alone gained me over 2 seconds a lap from the first time I ran them. Even Peter Finlay was impressed with the traction and handling of my car using 595RS at the International Racing Drivers School... and this was AFTER those very same tyres did over 200kms on Oran Park on the same day, not to mention the last 12+ months of racing (same tyres) and winning most of her classes. To add to this, you will be hard pressed trying to find a semi slick tyre such as these, that will handle so damn well in the wet. I'm using 595RS on both my Sklyines, both are used for track and street, they are never unplaced even though they are all but stock... you don't get those sort of times without having a good hold of the road. I call them semi's... most members of the racing clubs I interact with also refer to them as semis... but you can call them what you like, frankly I don't care, because to me they are bloody good tyres which have kept me on a competive edge for 2 years now and I can't wait to try out the new 595RS R's... even if I have to wait a bit longer because its taking a long time for these bloody good RS's to actually wear out. My local club tried to ban these tyres in my category because they were semi slicks - they had meetings to discuss my tyres because as far as the club was concerned, they WERE semis - to cover the confusion, they changed the rule to "street registerable tyres" to combat the fact that some manufacturers were not labelling semis as such. PS has anyone got any footage of my squealing biatch so called "top of the range" Falkens around Wakefield at the SAU day (one before last)? All the hype and no damn traction at all, she squealed at every corner... how embarrassment!!!
  3. I expect them to put the el cheapo plastic covers over the seats before they sit on them and a paper mat on the floor. Me providing something to stop them from putting grease on my seats would be like taking my own sheets to the doctors. Common courtesy and a professional service... not too much to expect for the hourly rate that is being charged.
  4. I'd be in for both so long as its not too cold for the photo shoot or on a weekend when i have a race.
  5. Zenith13 (Anthony) on the ACT forums does this type of work and has quite a lot of interesting graphics A fellow motorsport enthusiast who has been very good to me is C&G Signs in Hume - very helpful and fantastic prices
  6. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Great idea re: Supra vs Skyline - we could take our own trophy for the presentation, I'm certain SDMA would accommodate it with their event. Next event is in Sept - Entries are open NOW, so lets get our names down Michele - FH Tuk Tuk - Mark - GTR 32 a20089 - John - GTR 33 Donnan - Brendan - GTR 32
  7. I think these photos might give some of the story away as you get to the end of the slideshow... http://www.canberratimes.com.au/slideshowplayer.aspx?id=3010
  8. Well done guys, you went great... much better than my first day. I bet you went home and started thinking about the launch and each corner and how to nail them Results are up http://www.sdmahillclimb.com/ this is the strongest I have ever seen the SV class, I think next time you guys will end up with a trophy with those times.
  9. See you all out there I hope Tarmac and Jo don't go through withdrawals today
  10. did you get pics? I can't imagine it
  11. I don't think we're far off now - I think John has the final quote, but we'll keep fundraising for a vertical banner at a later date. I noticed they are doing banners for a pretty good price on ebay, might be worth querying on quality, although it won't get that much wear and tear.
  12. Same here, no response yet.
  13. 1) A20089 - John - Entry in - Paid 2) Tuk Tuk - Mark - Entry in - Paid 3) BNR32T - Keith ? 4) Ozleroy - Leon ? 5) Donnan - Brendan - Entry in - Paid 6) unSteadyEddie - Chris - Entry in - Paid 8) mccready - Thomas ? 9 Michele - FH - Entry in - Paid Have I missed anyone?
  14. Who else has paid and put their entries in?
  15. I'm with Mick on this one too. Don't know about the R35... its technically not a Skyline from what I have been led to understand and we are Skylines Australia. I like the one pictured, it does have a good visual effect and if you wanted to do a standing banner (like I mentioned a few posts ago) it might be a good one to put the rear ends of the different models in a vertical banner. Then we can have both at our presentations. Wotcha think?
  16. 1. Tarmac- 2. Ex!$t3nZ 3. Bluprint 4. datto260Z 5. Gus- 6. CeJay 7. INVRTD 8. Frink 9. Sky33t 10. zcr 11. Michele & Mark - I'll just have to bring a photo of the open wheeler so she doesn't feel left out.
  17. I'll be there, might take the GTR as well
  18. Come over this weekend if you want... we could catch up Saturday afternoon at my place and go over the cars if you like... say 2pm PM me if you want to come by and don't have my address/ph #

  20. Get yourself a domain name from somewhere like www.directnic.com for approx $15 USD a year for a .com or .net of your own, use that as your email address and its easy to redirect your mail to whatever ISP you have at the time. I frequently change ISP's and it takes about 30 seconds to make the change at directnic and you don't have to tell anyone cos they'll keep using [email protected] for example.
  21. good excuse for another get-together too would love a group shot in front of Parl House *hint hint*
  22. We could look at this as well (additional to the banner) Would need to check the quality Retractable Banner Okay, so even tho the link is accurate, it wont work hmmm then try searching Item number: 250277717907, would probably go the larger sizes too - I noticed they also do banners.
  23. Thanks David - I was happy to win my class and stoked with 2nd outright. Which paper is this one? I'd love a copy if you still have it... what date did it come out?
