Hahaha, Gold aint it Roy

If you're the minister, what can I be?

Thats the beauty of the internet. You can pretend to be whatever you want. I think you should be Minister for Prosperity of Infectious Diseases

I hear you. Everyone makes a mistake at some time, and it's my personal opinion that what goes on in the car, stays in the car.

I have a theory, and it may be a weak one, that when Rod was saying"where was the f**king chicane call?", he wasn't so much asking Sammy as asking himself, like, where was it in his brain and why did he miss it? It's only a theory, mainly because I could hear myself asking myself the same question out loud if in a similar situation.

Regardless, the first question after a hit like that should be "are you ok?".

2. I definately would have got off the brakes and just hit the chicane. Hitting a chicane isn't the end of the world, flat spotting all four tyres and going hard into the scenery is. Check out the skid marks in Sav's video at 3:34!

I know it's old news now but I noticed that sammy had posted up clear footage of the acco at the end of june, she's also said she wont nav again. and I wouldn't either. the first thing SHE said was "are you ok". the first thing he said was "yeah I'm ok (no question about her) and where was the f**king call". well there was the first chicane call, then the 100 meter chicane call, then the 'get off it' call. how much help did he need, and instead of just trying to wash off as much pace as possible and plough straight into the plastic barrier it looks like he has a nice tug of the wheel which sets the car into a massive tank slapper and points him straight into the tree. yeah he'd be pretty shaken up after a big acco and could be forgiven for a few fks and cnts but she had the decency and presence of mind to ask how he was, all he did was basically this was your fault. he must have had his ipod on max if he missed those chicane calls.

[Marlin]

Great news mate, hopefully Timmay and I will see you there!

yeah I saw she bought a neat white little GTI-R Pulsar, has some good bits, LSDs, Close ratio box etc. if set-up well and with the right bits they are a good little car. 1200kg, good SR20 with quad throttles, all the good bits etc, AWD they are pretty competitive. their real downfall is the lack of popularity means there is no big amount of aftermarket support or knowledge pool like you have with other models like EVOs WRC etc.

she seems to be a good driver so hopefully she does well.

[sav man]

she got one of the factory nismo cars. it's done the rounds of a few people in tassie, she bought it off garwoods mrs.

[Marlin]

Will be great to see the girls go up against eachother, Mel in her STi, Sammy in the mighty GTiR

(and outright too of course).

The pressure is mounting!

[Roy]

How fun are all these controlled Tarmac rally cars to drive on the track? A bit tame, underpowered etc?

[fatz]

she got one of the factory nismo cars.

but arnt they all factory nismo cars

lol

just learing to talk targa spec

lol

it hurts

my cars a n1

no really it is!

[sav man]

not sure if many people ran them in nismo spec aside from the factory cars. cause no one wants to put an expensive box in one of them, since you have to change the box at every oil change

Mine's an absolute ball! But then I'm not ghay, so I don't have 4wd

[Duncan]
