Did he suggest a Mac? They must be good for porn as everyone that has one is a wanker!

Please don't bring it back! )

I did a track day and didn't break anything. It was awesome!

I was quoted around $3.5K per set. But thats $500 cheaper than anywhere else I can currently find in Melb.

I just rang my dealer today to get some (went to the track for the first time ever really yesterday on the Bridgestones and they were TERRIBLE - but given they are 15,000kms old I was kinda expecting that) - anyways the dealer had a number of sets in stock.

Yeah for what it is worth I did a degree in Biology as it was something that interested me and afterwords worked in that field for a couple of years for not much coin. I now work in manufacturing in a field which doesn't really interest me all that much, but it allows me to do all the things I love in my spare time. I find I'm much happier now than I was before in life. If you look at daily life it can be basically broken up into 3 parts. Work, Sleep and Peronsal Time. We all need to sleep so there is not much that can be done about that time - but the other 2 you can choose to a degree how you spend it. I don't hate my job by any stretch and I work my best at it - but I'd happily do another that provides me with the same personal time lifestyle even if I didn't like it much either.

Haha - no I've never done it. The only Targa comparison I ever did was between me and Wooster on The Sideling (where our times were 1s different). It would be like if I'd brought the camera to Lake Mountain the other week. It would have been interesting to compare mine and Matt Colemans Tour run to your EMO run. And I have to say that the R36 is a MUCH more sensible recce car. The 35 is just too capable to get any feel at road speeds.

Na see I'm bringing the recce car so I need a nav.

Hopefully it will be as awesome as last years pre-event catch up. That was awesome - especially Benny. He was the party King! It was a night only bettered by the Rookie afterparty.

Well apparently it has a 4.4L engine.

What?????????????????????

I convinced Chris to come on the weekend. Don't expect anything special from either of us though. We are just coming for a fun session and to do some laps. Neither of us is really interested in going balaistic anymore. It's just nice to get out there and have a good time and PI is such and awesome fun place to drive around. I can't wait

Shame Handbags is just doing Rookie. He'd have a good crack at EMod otherwise I reckon.

Yeah I have to say my car sucks to drive now with the 3" and N1's. I haven't had a chance to do much testing with this set-up but I might have to consider the E85 route going forwards if I want the car to be fun again.

Haha - possibly. But I tell you, picking my car up on Sat was the first real time I've started to feel the hurt of not being able to go. It was the first time I've seen my car since TWP let alone sat in it and driven it and as I was driving home I started to try and work out all the different possible ways I could make it. But there were none. So I went home and drilled some holes in the car to make me feel better.

Thats a big shame about Classic Adelaide. Hopefully someone else picks up an event there in the future. I finally got my MCA shocks in the car a good 6 months after ordering them! It will be quite a few weeks before I have the time to test them out propperly but the initial impression from the drive from the workshop to home is good. So hopefully over the next 7 months I can spend sometime to get them right and fix all these pesky niggles and be right for a decent crack come Nov. But apparently there is another event on in a couple of weeks and there is very little chatter going on here this year. What's the scoop?

For those that don't know Serg (which will be most people outside of SAUVIC) - he is not a competition nut - but more of a genuine motorsport (and especially GT-R) enthusiast. He won't be asking Chris to find every last KW - but he will present a magnificant vehicle and will bring it home that way too.

Hey Slip - I'm really interested in the wide angle lens. Have you got any more details on it? Also - did you ever get thise Penske's?

I'll be there Serge. My entry went in last week to ensure I got the early bird.

So.... I heard that the 2011 Bathurst 12hr will introduce the FIA GT3 spec cars into the Bathurst 12hr given the field success in this years Demolition Debry for Squillionaires catagory. I actually think this will be pretty cool and it will be interesting to see if it gets much internation interest from competitors. I'm also going to be interested to see what Benny has to do to get a drive in Deano's Mosler for the event. Although given Deano changes cars like most of us change underwear he'll probably be driving the Ascari or something in 2011. http://www.speedcafe.com.au/2010/03/15/fia...thurst-12-hour/

Well then the 1st thing you need to upgrade is your computer! Because you'll need to go over both what you are allowed to do as well as what you MUST do.

Yeah but just remember the only big shiney plate you have got so far came from a GT-R mate!

Haha - doesn't say much for me does it. My next rally is likely to be Targa High Country which will be my fouth rally and will most likely be with my fourth different Nav! But I can see it's going to be harder and harder to find new ones since my old ones all seem to get abducted! One was abducted by an EMO, one by Indians and the other by Aliens (who removed his manhood)* *this may not be true but its the only logical answer I can come up with so far.

Did you compare at all the new free Cobb Stage 2 tune using the new boost logic?

Oh - and one for Stu. I had a chat to Stevey Jones after the event who is understandidly sick of "that Lambo" LOL. So I asked him why they didn't go to Spec V specifications (basically so he can drop some weight) and he told me that they aren't allowed too. IS that right? Surely it can't be.
