Hi guy's just wondering if anyone went to the crusty demons last night.

I went, as i have been to the past 4 of their shows in melb, but i thought last night was the best i have seen yet.

We sat in traffic for over 2 hour's, then the rain came and we thought it would be cancelled but we kept going and thankfully we did because i got to see Robbie Maddison jump his bike 350 feet, thats 106 metres and 3 seconds in the air.

I think it was worth standing on a crowded hill in the freezing cold to see that as it might not happen here again.

So who else went and what did you think.

I was there too

I was up on the hill on one of the camera platforms to the right of the stage, right above the freestyle mx jumps

It was a good night, but the cold and the rain were no fun

We missed all the traffic last night at the end as we had to dowload pics and upload to the Crustys site

All in all a good night with a good show,

Maddisons jump was huge and was awesome to see

Il go thru my pics this week and post up.

Was a great night except for the woefull traffic!!!

Took about an hour to get from the ring road to calder park on the way there and 1.5 hours sitting still trying to leave, literally didn't move more than 3 meters! Then somebody broke through a gate and we drove through that to get back out to the highway! Was a nightmare!!!

Show was good. Loved the freestyle stuff. We were on that far side so saw it all. Robbie's jump was insane and I was glad to see seth enslow go 301 feet. Bubba's stack was hilarious! 100ft on a KTM525, what was he thinking!

That Mamal band was bad... That stupid lead singer needs to lighten up!

Glad I went but the waiting and commentary was a bit painfull.

Yer, he looked like a wanker running down the hill with his shirt off lol.

How funny was the crowd booing him at the end hahaha.

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
