Stack lap timer for $150!!... tell me where Dane!!

Haha sorry Stuart, but it was pure luck mate! I looked on ebay in the US and got one for $120US or something ridiculous. Was a pain to get here, had to ship it on a container and it took 3 months but it was worth it :D

hey this is just my theory....but a car you buy is not like a car you build.

I would happily get rid of something I bought, but once you've put the blood and sweat (lots of blood lol) into it, it would be like selling one of your children. We always run them until we kill them . And there must be other people like me because there are far more race cars in garages than their are regularly on racetracks

I agree with you. It was easy for me to put my old RX7 up for sale (it got stolen before it was sold), but letting go of the 180 after 5 years would be a lot more difficult. When you build it you appreciate exactly how much work has gone into it.

I've heard it's coming together well..... but it was entered in TT this year but a no-show? whats the scoop Stu?

Wasn't 100% finished.

Going to be wild when its done and hopefully Matt gets to push it to its limits :D

yeah duncan is right. i've had a fair few GTRs now. bought and sold a couple, but the first GTR I ever owned I still have. that car needed a bit of love when I got it, and i've done lots to it over the years so it would be very hard to part with.

yeah matt entered it with confidence of it being finished, but some issues with suppliers caused delays early on and and a few weeks out from TT the pin was pulled as it just wasn't going to be finished in time.

hes bang up for next year though and the plan is to get some testing in prior... will be a hellva thing

keep talkin Ben.... i am enjoying it!

looks like you had a beautiful r32!! i just love em... i love the way they drive and feel and i also love the hard edge they have when modded & the driver has to do all the work very rewarding driving one as you guys know.

believe me i am not in a hurry to sell it and will be pushing to get rid of the r33 , and cover up the r32 for a while.

cheers russ

    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
    • The thing is, once the content has been tagged we can chop and change the end result as much as we want. Its identifying the content in the first place that needs to be done regardless of the final outcome.
    • Sorry @GTSBoy I thought I'd replied here. There's a new BIG version of invision coming out soon, it might be worth waiting until that happens as it contains a lot of improved functionality for tags. My suggestion would be to add a top level page (not thread) with some info on it and then link to sub pages for various topics. We could even just start really simple with 2 or 3 pages underneath it. Those pages could just have a view (like a pre configured search result) of the tags we choose to put on it. We could have some background or an intro on each of these pages. My only issue is that while admins and mods can update the existing content to contain the tags we want, new posts can have whatever tags the author wants. That said, the reason our tags are so messy is because of that, so maybe we restrict tagging to admins/mods in edits.
