That is the story that i heard too. But it was from Baldrick, and his stories arn't always based on the truth

That was where i first hear it, and i called bullshit...

then got the same story from a very seprate, unrelateted source, that doesn't know and has never meet Baldrick...

[DJRIFT]

baldrick would know the person you are talking about.

[Burgz32]

baldrick would know the person you are talking about.

he does seem to know everyone doesn't he!!!!, but when i said such and such said the same thing

Baldrick gave me a "who???"

couldn't beleave it!!!

[DJRIFT]

yea i know i was just joking.

[Snowman]

This doesn't sound good! http://www.weatherzone.com.au/news/tasmania-goes-tropical-/16928

Wonder if this is going to cause more issues?

[sav man]

I was pissing down when we did the east coast run. I think east coast road infostrure is pretty good, so there shouldn't be any damage.

[Snowman]

Thats good to hear.

Long term outlook looks like a wet one! It's a good thing I've gone to harder springs and more camber....

[sav man]

you bringing some softer springs down with you?

[Snowman]

I will bring some but things will have to look pretty dire for me to make the call to change them.

Plus I don't know anyone down there that can ensure its still pointing straight afterwards.

Yeh cross fingers no road damage when the water subsides.

But plus 1 for rain

[t01-100]

there's some damage on the east coast... three stages effected. i'm heading up tomorrow to see how we manage them... i've never seen so much road damage for an event.

helped peter o'keefe get his r34 off the trailer today as it's finally home.

it's come up really well with very nice fabrication and generally looking very sharp... some stunner benson motorsports gear on it too

[sav man]

better get out there with the hot mix then stu.

[t01-100]

have got my hands dirty before today with a cold mix product we use... very technical approach of filling the hole then rolling the old mazda6 diesel over it a few times!

[Neil]

Sorry guy's,,,just a little off topic and may sound like a stupid question but what size are the road books etc,,,is everything A4 size or is some paper stuff bigger?.

Cheers

Neil.

im certin i can point you to a workshop (or my shed, jk) that is more than capible of changing springs and not wrecking your setup. after all taking the shocks and springs out wont change any alignment.

[Marlin]

Neil, road books are A4 and are bound, so they're a frag larger mate.

[sav man]

They were A5 bound last year from memory.

[PHaT MR30]

A5 with an option to go A4 (advance notice required), Marlin's living back in the 70's

I hardly use the roadbook much anymore though, usually only to get to lunch breaks.. and if your in a skelta, you just can't have it in there cos it weighs like 100 grams!

[Neil]

Thanks boy's for the info. I'm looking at making an aluminum book holder for the poor bastard in the silly seat.

Cheers

Neil.
