Seeing they won't post my reply. I'll post it here :laughing-smiley-014:

Daryl,

You can read my email and cross reference my user name on other forums, congratulations!

In terms of Garry’s behaviour out side the skid plan complex, you guys seem to know who, what and when people play up out there. I only assumed you knew, in regards to why it wasn’t brought up pervious, was due to it only happening at the last event.

I was referring to the VS commodore speedway car, not the Escort.

It appears you think I was the driver of one of the black R32s? Or even competing at the event? I was a spectator. I left shortly after the trophies were given out. I was not aware of ANY SKIDS at the end of the day, as I wasn’t there. I have spoken to both the R32 drivers and the have admitted to spinning the wheels, due to the wet grass and heavier clutch’s, they weren’t intentional – Again I wasn’t there simply relaying what I have been told today.

The father of the guy in the quick black R32 was there and competing in his mini, and has told me he did not see either of the R32’s “kick it out” when leaving, but the wheels had spun..

You had said a skid was left LEAVING the skidpan, I was referring to actually leaving the pan and onto the ring road, not the complex its self.

If you have so many witnesses of skids are the other guys who spun up the grass being reprimanded? The Purple R31, Blue 180sx and the Maroon R32 come to mind.

I appreciate the time and effort you and the volunteer’s do put in, I have been involved with running events my self, including the Noosa Hill Climb, however these time errors at your event have happened more then once. Being a CAMS affiliated event I had of thought you would be following closer to how other Motorkhana are run.

The time board wasn’t on display, which it should have been and when a discrepancy was made it was totally ignored. We are all at a loss how the black R32 was 20 seconds behind at the end of the day, when no cones were knocked down. A simple please explain and a simple answer was all that was needed.

Prime example was the third or forth last track, Ashleigh had stated it was done perfect, and it was done in 56.xx, yet the time card Rob had done had 61.xx, with the 5 that was changed into a 6.. Another miss-hap example was at one of the last events, last year – Garry was placed first in the 6 cylinder class, yet he was running a 4 cylinder 180sx on the day.

In relation to questioning my driving ability and me saying Garry is beating me is total crap, I wasn’t competing on the weekend, nor have since I’ve started to come along with the Noosa crew. My driving credential is more then ample. I’m an active member in the Porsche car club and compete in club level motor sport events be it with the Porsche club or open events in a 911 C2 and before that in a RUF 911. I’m more then happy to see how I go at your Motorkhana’s when I have my license back, as I’m under the impression I can only compete with a current drivers license.

I have also been an active volunteer in assisting motor sports events and was originally involved with my father, the Noosa Beach Car Club and the HRCC in making the Noosa hill climb happen.

I have spoken to my father’s solicitor, and he has seen this thread. I won’t be re-removing ANYTHING from my posts, as questioning the ability of timing and “penmanship” in writing along with suggesting cheating within a motor sport event in reality won’t really fall under what the legal system will take serious and is debatable just how bad it will harm a ones reputation. I will however make an apology to Ashleigh as what I said wasn’t called for, nor needed to be said.

By all means sue me for slander & defamation, you won’t be the first nor last. I’ve been sued and have sued for the same, it goes nowhere real quick and as a non-profit car club I question the clubs financial position with being able to keep throwing money at solicitors for something pitiful and trivial.

You would be completely wrong about my pathetic ranting & sulking on the subject of my career choice. I was a project developer and marketer for Century 21 for some years and then moved onto a Brisbane CBD firm.

Not only was I employed to do this by a firm; I also invest my own money in small developments in my own time in conjunction with my family. My profile never said I was a stockbroker, it said stock broking which I also have money involved with as well. My personal financial situation shouldn’t really be relevant not a concern in this matter how ever.

I admit I went the wrong way about voicing my views and opinion on this matter, however it needed to be said (just in a better way).

What a little bitch the Admin is on that site, the thread has been set to mod review before posting, for everyone it appears. Oh well, I'll just contact his car club sponsor's today and have a moan about how un ethical his club is.

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.

      I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Butters · Posted

      Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.

      I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
