Old Farts Movin In

[FineLine]

Well all you young pups how good are ya.The silver haired old man is about to purchase an R33 GTT so stand aside or lose a limb.

Hi everybody Total SAU noob but a skyline devotee since before some of you were born. I spent my younger years Cruisin, clubbin, draggin, short circuit racing and a variety of other motoring shenanigans in a variety of cars including HT 350 bathurst Monaro, SLR 5000 torana, several red hot mini cooper S' and a few other nondescript hotrods of varied performance and questionable condition.

As happens so often I got caught by a sheila and got married and had a couple of kids so the fun had to stop.

I spent the next 20 years driving a boring range of cars from a 180B, 200B, 2.4 skyline (damn good car) 3 litre aussie skyline several nissan patrols (currently own a TI 4.8 litre with some mild mods) and A couple of maximas. Wifes current ride is an 05 TI Max. (what a sweet ride)

Underlying all of this has been a burning desire to own a hot skyline. Ever since those gibson motor sports gtrs rammed it up dick johnson and HDTs arse I have worshipped at the skyline alter. Funniest event in motorsport was listening to Johnson cry a river claiming foul on the gtrs after he had dominated in the cosworth sierras for a couple of seasons. Jim Richards winning speech at bathurst lives in my mind as the greatest oratory in aussie motor sport. (for those too young to recall his words were something as follow to the the sorelosin gm and blue oval fans) YOU ARE A PACK OF ARSEHOLES

Nuff of that nonsense. I am going to tune a 2.5 R33 to somewhere around 240/250RWKW and play my heart out. I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible and sharing info, Ideas, and general bs sessions.

I wish to drag, circuit, and partake in activitys such as fun runs etc with others of a like mind.

I would like to join the queensland skylind clup (or whatever its called) and start enjoying what my soul has been craving for over 20 years. PERFORMANCE

Rules of engagement are simple. No taking it easy on the old fart cos, given the chance I will kick the crap outta ya and rub it in hard when you are down. I takes my lumps like a man and i dish them out like a mongrel so give me all ya got or dont play.

Just coming on here has made me feel years younger already. Just tell me where and when it all happens and lets have a ball.

Will definitely partake in both as time allows Nathan. I already like it here so it should be fun.

As a matter of interest, Am I the only old fart who chose a skyline over a harley as a midlife regression or are there other geriatrics around like me.

LOL. And one day I may just find myself in a gtr bloke. For now I just want a good rear wheel drive skyline to test the waters.
