I think you may have been at the Ian Luff track day a month or two ago.

Ah Yes I was But you were probably eyeing up my son not me but I can proudly claim to be faster than him at least I was on that day and just so he cant knock me off I havent invited him to this one

hahaha. good call.

I knew who was who!

amazing car, hearing that screaming down the straight and tearing around turn 1 of the Sth Circ was pretty damn cool.

Pity the Zed didn't show up to give you a run for your money!

*let the banter begin!*

All,

Firstly my appologies for the on again off again on again trouble that has transpired, but this is expected when you try to organise a trackday at the last minute.

OK TUESDAY the 1ST AUGUST 06 was booked by someone else within 1hr of us getting notice that it was available. So now our only option is back to:

MONDAY 7TH AUGUST 06

Our only option to drive is to share with the Aust Cars, Aaron has offered to cover the $20 Oran Park Licence cost as some level of compensation and in addition has limited the number of drivers to 16 people which are our existing committed numbers. Aaron expects the Aust cars may be finished by around 12 ish anyway and will try and negotiate us to open the track up after 12, so we can play with then.

As most of you will know there will still be heaps of time on the track for us even if we dont open the day up after lunch.

If anyone wants to pull out because we are sharing our time please let me know, but I dont think it will be as much of an impact as I first thought after speaking to Aaron, especially after the reduction in numbers. Any concerns call me on 0402847826.

The list so far is as follows

Now just what Zed do you mean ??? Surely not Mr Penlingtons"300 Unique thing" I trust you mean my beautiful Red 33 year old ------ 240Z that is [ with my other son driving ] There aint nothing quite so intoxicating as the induction roar of trible webber carbies at full noise [ and its still quick enough to knock off a lot of Turbos -- GTR's included - 51 secs Oran Park South] but I guess thats showing my age

    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
