GODTHRILA

fark me... time to haze tomskie man you gota first find your nuts... if you can find them, squeeze em hard and then save it for the game! before we go down, please tell your mrs to apply the dental dam and have a wash... she's soooo "fresh"

^^^^ WTF??? it's clear that there are some people that aren't taking this event seriously... hhhmmmm... how disapointing. Tom those comments just aren't needed dude... trash talk people or just dont bother posting. I guess it's fair for the rest of you to just wana have a "fun time" and a "joke" about this... after all, it's not like you have any hope in hell of placing numero uno. GWP Racing is the uno champs... we hold all the wild cards... all you bitches DRAW 4

checked the weather report and its a fine weekend ahead so a dry track, cool night... you guys have no excuse now but to put in a slightly challenging effort. bring on saturday!

check out the green wang pump at the end of the race... there may be some "winners custard" there for ya!

Yeah... a very odd character that was loved by all and was victorious at the end...

Best tip is to ensure that no matter what it takes... pass Bard and Mike as fast as you can. If you get stuck behind them due to their slow driving and poor choice of driving line, they will hold you up lap after lap. 2nd best tip is to ensure that no matter what it takes... stay out of Green Wang Pump Racing's way... rubbing is racing and you need to ask yourself... do you want to be rubbed by a green wang pump?

Bard... the only thing lame was our karts clutch, and team ramrods ability... tough to judge which was the worst. I would say team ramrod cos once we had the clutch replaced at least the kart started to perform again... the same can't be said for you guys. Mikey... was going to suggest we have "that talk" sometime soon... the man cub was looking to handsome to be yours and the fact that he is rolling now is a clear indication that he has an advanced cerebal cortex... much like this aussie!!! Might join you Kylie. I think Mark & I will retire after half an hour as we will have surely built enough lead by then to retire and still win the race. But seriously people... we should stop lol'n and saying this thread is funny... we should be encouraging special needs people like Bard and Mikey... Just think that it is an acomplishment that they can drive (if you can call it that) and even organise this event. I say "Gold stars for Bard and Mikey... I'll shout you guys a slice of fairy bread after the race and if your good... only if your good, you can both take your crayons to do some coloring while your not driving"

ppfffttt... lame excuse... having a kart blow a clutch aint lame. I suspect ramrod was tampering with our kart pre-race. Everyone watch out for those two, they play dirty... almost as dirty as their women... yeah that's right... we didnt "waste" that 23 laps... we were burnin' rubber. let the mother/wife/girl friend trash begin!!!

PSYCH OUT... I don't really have stickers.... or do I??? DOUBLE PSYCH OUT... lol got ya *coughs & and changes to a more serious voice* I really do have stickers

Mike/Bard - you had better go practise this weekend or come and injur me, or both... I have just printed up team Green Wang Pump Racing decals and they will surely add 3-4Hp to the engine and vastly improve aero... I also boooked into the local GP to remove one of my balls cos its only going to take half a man to beat you guys... it is also saving me at least 6kg of balast!

s2k12 - there isn't any way of jucing up a detector once it's built. I would expect more range on a BEL XR, but having said that I have used the same model before and have had readings from 70m up to around 260m... all this proves is that the enviromental factors surrounding each radar (i.e. how many cars are around you, is it clear or raining, humid or dry, etc.) can and will effect your range. As nobody has control over these factors we just have to take the good with the bad... but if you are consistantly only getting that range, I would definately like to see the unit for testing here in a controlled enviroment. bubba - glad to see I didn't put you to sleep and I answered your questions. K band radar is used in automatic door openers (sliding glass doors at servo and shopping centres, etc), mobile speed signs (you might have seen yellow trailers "SAM"), SWS (safety warning system) which is a text message broadcast on the k band from ambulances and roadcrews, and lastly cop cars. Not all cop cars are equiped with radar and the ones that are don't drive all day with them on so you will only ever detect this if you are within range of a cop car equiped and using their radar. Placement of your detector will not effect performance on radar detection as it's a radiowave... the signal will hit the bottom left of your windscreen just the same as the top right. If you drive a euro car like a citroen... 1- your a pansy, 2- you will notice a special coating on the windscreen... this actually blocks most of the signal from passing through the glass so you would need a fitted radar detector like the BEL XR-C or the BEL XR80. Also the multanovas are all 'ment' to be set-up exactly 22 degrees off parallel to the point of road they are next to... weather or not this is ever done exactly and everytime I don't think we will ever know. Scott

Please bring it in to the office as soon as you can and I will have it repaired for you while you wait. Please call the office first to ensure I will be there so we can also test the performance in a controlled environment. Neltronics 4/50 Jersey Street Jolimont 9383 7833 Scott

Hi bubba, Fair question... and it has a bit of a long winded answer. What what you want in a detector may suit you, but not others. If you want the best then price will not be a contributing factor... rather range (a.k.a performance) and filtering capabilities (the 2 major things to consider when choosing a detector). Having said that, the most recent price alteration for the BEL XR70 has bought it down to $595 RRP so is actually the same RRP as the Pro78, and the V965 is now RRP $495 and is the same as the cheaper whistler XTR-690. The XR70 is a software updated model based on the US model V995. Software changes were based on tests carried out in Australia in late 2006 to bring it up to a suitable spec for Australian and New Zealand conditions (vast majority Ka band radar with low output signal)... it was good to start with (as you will see below), but we wanted better. Some may say I am biased as I am the distributor for Beltronics... so lets get some unbiased test results from guys in the industry. SML (Speed Measurement Laboratories) hold an annual test where detector manufactures and radar manufacturers (together with police) test out a bunch of equipment. SML do not sell detectors so they are used as the industry testers with unbiased results in controlled conditions. Below are some links with test results: http://www.radarbusters.com/2006longrangetestingarticle.cfm <--- this link shows SML 2006 long range results (look at the V995 results as a guide... the XR70 is slightly better again as a result of the updates made) http://www.radarbusters.com/2007maxrangera...tingarticle.cfm <--- this link shows SML 2007 long range results (shows Pro78, whistlers best unit... V995 no longer there as is not the best Bel offers) It should be noted that 9miles was the maximum distance for the test... it is possible and probable that both units would have further range capabilities. The whistler two 9's and a 7.8 while the Bel nocks out solid 9's. http://www.radarbusters.com/2007falsealerttestarticle.cfm <--- this link shows falsing. There is no V995 here but the V995 & the Bel Sti share the same filtering system so we can use that. If you discount the X band false alerts (as the XR70 has had X band removed), whistler has 5K false alerts while Bel has only 1K false alert. So those are the results... everyone can make up their own minds as to which offers better value for the same money now. Featurewise I am sure the Bel also has more than the whistler but these are superficial as they don't make the unit perform any better. As far as turning the unit on it's side... I have used a vertical bracket and both times I got just over 230m on a multanova... I couldn't seperate the horizontal or vertical performance after running this test 6 times at the same location over the space of 10mins. Some people swear by it but I haven't seen any benefit... each to their own. As far as noises... well not much can be done there as the tones are set... but I certainly would never recommend someone use their ears as a basis of choosing one detector over another. I Hope this info helps everyone considering a detector purchase in making an educated decision as to which unit would best suit them, and I hope this long winded explination has answered bubba's question without putting anyone to sleep! Scott

FTW!!!

-Dukes- when did you take it into the shop and what shop was it? I am the wholesaler for Beltronics and we did become aware of a UV false alert issue with the XR70 quite some time ago and have had a solution for this for almost the same amount of time. It only took about 3 days of testing to discover what needed to be done and we haven't had a issue with any units that were repaired. A simple UV mesh filter needs to be added to the laser sensor... this takes all of about 4 mins to do and I could do it for you while you wait. I can assure you that the XR70 outperforms the the 78pro from whistler. I will never bag out a quality built brand and I must say that whistler has good build quality, but radar detectors should be always harshly compared on performance as their main point of comparrison. Beltronics has always and will always outperform whistler on performance which is what counts. Will be good to hear your response to see which one of my dealers has the wrong info... I don't like hearing that the people retailing our products haven't got the full story. Scott

lovin the crap hats buddy... you have always likes a lil poo in your face/head region. works well for me and maka cos we are guna shit all over you in a few weeks. crap hats for all

since when is Scott spelt "BARD"??? or are you guys refering to the upcoming gay-porn movie awards where "BAD-BOY-BARD" was treated to "MIKE'S BEST DRIVER IN THE WORLD EVER"... you guys are a sure winner for that trophy. The go-karting trophy should be green and have REAL GOOD suction... my wang pump broke and now I'm slinging a 2incher...small dicks FTW

That was just Mikeys left nut... his dick is small so he has been having better luck ball f**king bard The two of them also have a gay sheep fettish... hence the name ram rod

not that i condone gambling... but lets gamble! how about we all chip in $10 (before we start racing)... thats like $220 (go calculator skillz) 1st place $120 2nd place $70 3rd place $30 what ya's all recon? if we get a 12th team then there an be a $20 wooden spoon prize

did you get the money transfer it wasn't me the dude with the ref number it wasn't me catch my green pump in the shower it wasn't me can this post get any gayer dude you know im down for this 110% but i have to wait to pay in july with my birthday money... that is if im a good boy!!!

bard actually change our team name to "Green Wang Pump" I don't think a midget could kick Mikey's ass unless they jumped off a table. big or small short all tall all will fall to team... GREEN WANG PUMP

Sure will... just as soon as the pump arrives from adultshop.com Bard, can you change our name to "Team Wang Pump"

We came 2nd last thank you very much!!! so long as we get a kart that has a working clutch this time I think we will do ok. Ryan/Matt are you 60kg boys running Bulimia Spec??? Combined your going to have an 80kg advantage over Maka and me... I guess we can't all have big dicks though.

+1 for slidin at big track... good times

6:00pm... mmmm cold night air Put me and maka down, team "return of the mac" PM SENT
