abit of wall love never hurt anyone!

[D_I_F]

so come on, own up who's got some wall love?

It was Greg Again.. haha

He just can't seem to stay away from those walls.. I think hes secretly in love haha

[Moanie]

lol!!! ouch!!! poor greg! is it bad?! and you said mishaps? did he kiss the walls a couple of times?

[evil_weevil]

yeah poor bugger

[Nismo_God]

Well I was surprised that all that happened.....with the weather and certain individuals out there, i though more would have kissed the walls....

[D_I_F]

lol!!! ouch!!! poor greg! is it bad?! and you said mishaps? did he kiss the walls a couple of times?

Yep twice. rear and front.

He is alright thankgod.. car is nearly fixed, I just picked up the front bar last night.

[Beer Baron]

nasty. well i imagine greg's car would be a bit of a handfull in the wet. and hey you have to find the limit somehow.

[Beer Baron]

hang on... which greg are we talking about? and which car?

[Beer Baron]

and say no to concrete kids. i still have the sticker somewhere, i'm sure fatz has heaps as he knows all about the wall love.

Yes it was but he was doing pretty well most of the day.

Greg as in your turn 10 wall smashing buddy at eastern creek

and say no to concrete kids. i still have the sticker somewhere, i'm sure fatz has heaps as he knows all about the wall love.

Haha I bet he does!

[Beer Baron]

ahh, cool. for some reason I thought you had a boyfriend named greg and for a minute I thought oh noes he'd smashed your car. but yeah, greg boyle. makes sense now since you did say 'hit the wall again'. lol. don't mind me, I'm not always the sharpest tool.

poor greg not getting much joy at either EC or OP, but I seem to remember he was FTD or pretty damn close last time at EC so there is bound to be a few 'offs' when you are pushing that hard. and hey, it is a race car afterall.

[Moanie]

hitting anything sucks! especially when you're out there enjoying the car and pushing it a lil!! Sucks that the weather was so shite though! doubt it would have helped!

Haha I did like a year ago, no one gets to drive my car except for mechanics and people I know aren't going to do anything stupid in it.

Did you have too much beer again baron? lol..

Yea Im glad he was alright it was a pretty bad one.. I didn't realise what had happen until a min later.. I ran up the pits to see if he was alright..

I guess this is the down side to racing cars that you just have to take that risk and especially on the day like it was on sat

[Nismo_God]

but in the end no one was hurt....just panels....im more surprised the vl wagon didnt collect a wall....he was all over the place...

haha, well at least I didn't pull it out of thin air!

yeah, greg is a pretty good steerer and turns out some very nice cars too so it wont be any more than a blip on the radar for him.

and yep, that is the downside to taking cars to the track. pretty much anytime you head out onto the circuit you can end up in the wall. most of us are lucky enough to avoid it for most of the time but sometimes it just happens. not much we can do but have a giggle and move on

The good thing is that he got back on the horse the next day. He made some pretty good times at wakie for driving an S13 with a stock rb20 in it.

[Moanie]

just goes to show that track work is definitely not about the amount of power a car makes! its more then handling and driver skills!

Liz I'm so sure with a couple of days more practice you would definitely get close to that time.
