They didnt mention the car being an import or a high performance car, nor did they mention the drivers being young...

Therefore it must have been a ford laser filled with old ladies on their way home from the bingo hall...

See it just does not get the medias full attention does it...!!!

NOTE: Take my post with a gain of salt...

I saw a VT wrapped around a pole on Tuesday lunch time on the corner of Days & Lutwyche Roads...

It was a lady in her 30's and she was attending her daughter in the back of the car while driving at 60kph...

She could have gone through the front of the shops on that corner and killed people... Lucky there was a pole there, maby now they will put up a crash barrier... It made the news also, as the camera crews were there when i drove past...

Anyway this has nothing to do with this topic, but i felt like sharing anyway... :(

They reakon he was doing 100.

And Duporth Ave is confusing - it appears to be a 60 zone but it is infact a 50 zone. I used to live on it.

there was nothing left of the car, i reckon he was doing more than 100...police have no need to talk it up though, it wasnt a young person driving, nor was it a modified/import car. Most of duporth is unmarked and a built up area, therefor a 50 zone.

There was something left of the car.

It looked nowhere near as bad as the crash a few weeks ago in mountain creek. I'd put it at 120 tops - plus, where he crashed gave him about 100-150m of acceleration space if the newspaper was correct in identifying where he crashed (By the christian center).

it's being fixed again, not a total write off.

but with the guy who hit the pole on duporth, it just goes to prove that u dont have to be 17 and own a high powered sports car to be a fool behind the wheel, i hope the police take notice of the facts that he was 30 and owned a family sedan.... then maybe they can start picking on the ppl who deserve it.

the sunshine coast daily article in regards to this was a joke. The police were winging about young ppl in fast cars, amongst other things about educating young drivers etc. It really did p*ss me off. I do agree with a lot of the things in regards to young ppl in fast cars and under educated drivers but if anything this only proves exactly what you have just said..you dont have to be 17 and in a high peformance car to have a crash and cause a fatality. Maybe the police should take a look at whats really going on and realise this too!

      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

      I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
