This one obviously did...

Sorry, back on topic

I did 10 classes (45mins each) and pass the MT 3years ago. No worries, juz drive carefully

Interesting... Arent we currently talking in the 140kmph thread about how most drivers are under educated? By saying 'I only had this much practice and I passed' probably just makes people find it ok to practice less because other people have and have gotten away with it. This is most likely the mentality that increases collisions caused by inexperience. Not that I'm saying a person like that would be a bad driver, I only had four classes (min avail at the time) and passed fine, but I'd been driving paddock bombs for about 10 years before that

I also recommend getting your car in someones paddock and just let rip... it always helps me remind myself of how a car reacts when you loose traction, and that's something they can't teach. Plus grass can be nice and slippery

[nice 28]

So how did you go mate?

I go for mine on the 5th of July.

Did you find it hard?

Wish i had a paddock to fool around in. I had an army bombing ground though, but all the stupid shit was done using a fwd 1.6Turbo fiat bravo. After awhile, you run out of shit to do. =(

I was in Queensland for 6months and booked my test without doing any lessons.

It was a long shot because they were just implementing the 2008 July 1st Law. So it was do or die i wasn't going to not try.

So did you pass or not?? The only thing you have to do is not panic, go in thinking your a skilled D1 driver who conquers the road, worked for me.

ps. i didn't lose any points. like someone else said, a monkey can do that test. the only thing my awesome tester told me was; "you take corners a little fast".

Passed the test, parked the car, told him i never did a lesson and he said god help you. Hahaha

[drive_guy]

f**k yeah, i passed!

[Game]

f**k yeah, i passed!

Well done mate! Did you have any problems?

[xALmoN]

nicely done, what car are you gonna get?

[UNR33L]

buy my non turbo r33!

[JEPPE]

Congrats! Yeah, what car????

[esther]

My twin went for her license last month and passed, I was shocked. She crashed 3 days after getting it! She's not the best driver, and she'd never had any parking practice prior to her driving lesson on the day before the test. just goes to show how easy it is. I go for mine next week so fingers crossed I'll pass.

[zero-R33-]

Congrats on passing dude. Shouldn't stress so much. I bet you didn't even get the reverse parking did you.

Lol at jezza boii

[drive_guy]

Thanks alot guys you really helped out. i only f**ked up on a round about, forgot to indicate, and on ballarat road i didnt accelerate quick enough after doing a U turn. 2 critical errros total.

Funny story about a car. I was going to buy an r32 turbo, i think an rb20det, i gave the chick a couple hundred deposit after i looked at a few weeks back but after i left, another person came and test drove it..."apparently" the peson broke the car.

She says its the fuel pump or some shit so now she prob wont sell it to me because she is going to make that person buy it. I was so shattered when i rang her yesterday, it is the hottest r32 ive ever seen.

So i guess im in the market for a r32 or 33.

thanks again guys

edit: this is the car i was going to buy, you can see it says "on hold" which was meant for me

Beautiful R32

They didn't break the car, they offered her more for it than you did

Not a good looking R32 IMO you can do much better than a rat rod spec thing like that. Why don't you get something like a non-turbo R33 for your P plates...

[drive_guy]

thats strange, she said i was the higest offer. 5750$. do women have to lie in every aspect of life!

I wouldnt mind an r33 but im such a fan of 32's mate. if i can find one for around 5000 ill take it straight away.

[UNR33L]

Do yourself a favor and DO NOT buy a turbo i was about to buy a 32 GTST but went for a non turbo 33, so glad i did because a week after I got my 33 I had the car fully searched by TMU for shit, and that would of been bye bye right there, not to mention I've been pulled over around 15 times in the time that I've been on my Ps.

You've been pretty unlucky with cops.... 16+ times

And Just because you are getting off your P's and drive a turbo, it doesn't mean they won't puill you over another 15 times and defect you 15 times

[llama_au]

I know the person that owns the car you were looking at.
