First i'd like to thanks JACK (Citywide Towing 0419 877 437) for organising a Tow truck coming all the way from Melb to Heathcote to tow my mate's car home. :P

Secondly i'd like to thank JACK ....oh sorry Jack's FATHER for driving his tow truck all the way up to Heathcote to help us out at a very mate's rate. A very friendly gentlment too.

Thanks YLWGTR for respray my bonet back to the tip top condition, you're a pro mate.

Warning, while we were at Heathcote today, a highway patrol car rocked in the pit area. Mr officer then took a walk around try to pick on cars but unfortunately the amount of car's trailer there were as much as cars that run on the day so they left disappointed.

You'd like to think by doing the right thing, we drive 2 hours + away to test our cars out just to see officers rock up at a place that they encourage us to come and test our cars out instead of the street.

So whatever you do next time at the drag strip, becarefull. Little that they know WE import drivers love to run our cars on street tyres, street tune and street trims. We are not weak sources that us slick, un bolt their cat's back, use high octance neither NOS or if we do we'd arrive in style (on trailer ofcourse :D).

wow towing from heathcote would have been a mint if it wasnt at mate rates, although i would still imagine it to be a fair amount of $$..

A shame about the cop, they should be encouraging people who are doing the right thing!!

Did you run your car West?

Nah, i didn't run my car mate though the last time i was there i ran 12.2 with 1.9 60ft time @5k dump. I'll wait for the next SAU drag day.

I was about to go today as well with my mates - they were running their Black RX7 Series 6. Good thing i didn't go, they only ran the car once and it broke down.

Yeah i saw that car, FULL SICK :P. It currently holding record for fastest street register Series 6. Go to love the TD-H 88.

Your mate were trying to help my friend as well, we borrowed tools off him but couldnt' fix anything, it was BILL wasn't it?

Speak for yourself! :P

Yep Bill from Rotary Performance Centre. Its got the biggest T88 in the market :P

They havent broken the record yet, but will do in time - they've only ran the car around 3-4 times. Best is 9.8 at the moment, i think 9.6 is the record for street trim.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
