quote from Spooks link

"Two cars - a taxi and a purple Mitsubishi Lancer sports car - collided near the corner of Viewmount and Ferntree Gully roads in Wheeler's Hill about 9.30pm.

The driver of a third high-powered car was being questioned by police last night. "

3rd high powered car? meaning the taxi and the lancer were high powered? LOL

Another demonstration how the addition, or removal, of a comma can change the entire meaning of a sentence. :huh:

meaning?

"The driver of a third high-powered car was being questioned by police last night" has a different inference regarding the capabilities of the trio of vehicles compared to, "The driver of a third, high-powered, car was being questioned by police last night."

since when was a mitsubishi lancer a sports car?

Since the Evo 1 was released, Evos are Lancers and it doesnt mention model.

Had the article said, a Lancer GL sports car, I would also question it :mellow:

question re: thread title- where in australia do they hold 'legal' street drag comps?

zackly

illegal drag racing

No such thing...e-mail the Mcquarie dictionary and get the definition changed to what it is. The Macquarie is the resource used by all Australian media outlets to define. If we change the definition these "journalists" will stop trying to tie a stupidity to drag racing and, eventually, imports.

Definition

A race conducted on a 400m track, measured in both speed and time. Sanctioned by motorsport governing bodies, legal activity.

Not

A clusterfu(k conducted over no specific distance, the winner is determined by the ego of the knuckle head driving the vehicle and is too often conducted infront of citizens, resulting in damage to vehicle and/or knuckleheads. Illegal activity

back seat passenger is at home now resting

As far as I'm aware, the back seat passenger of the VL is still in hospital with a broken leg and other injuries. The driver is fine, however, the front passenger is badly injured, but will recover.

Also, it wasn't an R34 GTR, but an R33 GTS-T. The VL was not racing; the R33 was "showing off" by speeding up the street and got it all wrong T-boning the VL.

unless there were two crashes involving 2 vls, then the guy that was in the back seat is at home i spoke with his mum about 2days ago.

Was it Danny from Custom Bodyworks?

I heard Danny was the passanger in the back seat was pretty badly injured.

If it's true, I hope he's ok. He's a top bloke.

      Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.

      Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network.

      SR20 to cefiro

      By KKaplumbaa · Posted

      Hello. I have an a31 cefiro but since I am in Turkey we have a CA20S engine. I did some research. Then I found that I can swap with a ca18 but when I heard that it has the similar substructure as the s13. I thought I can swap with an sr20 because the sr20 was used with the s13. So can I easily swap the sr20 on my cefiro or is it difficult?
