As some of you may know Mel (Datgirl) and I will be teaming up together this week for Targa High Country in the Envy Scooters Holden V8 Ute (yeah, yeah, we know it's not a Skyline, but it's two SAUers running together in a cool car still!)

Read all about it here: Envy Scooters get girl powered for Targa High Country

We'll do our best to keep everyone up-to-date with our progress.

Envy Scooters are also running a competition on their Facebook page which everyone can enter to win an awesome prize. All you have to do is answer this question: Which of the Envy Scooters racecars will finish first and why?

Hint: your answer better include Mel and Kel winning ;)

p.s: I will still be flying the SAU flag thanks to the SAU logo on my race suit!

Congrats again on getting the gig girls! See you up there :)

What's the plan? Drive it smooth and aim for a result or to hell with a result and rip tyres off the thing all the way up Buller and watch the video go viral? :)

Thanks all! The plan at the moment is to follow the 'bring it home in one piece' plan... but I'm sure Datgirl's arm can be easily twisted for a few skids ;)

What may go viral is Mel and I's attempts to look cool on the Envy Scooters the guys are throwing in the back of the ute for us to play around with in our down time. Envy Scooter races down Buller anyone???!!!

Sorry all- we had trouble updating from High Country... maybe we need an app for that ;)

And real life has gotten in the way of posting since coming back to real life!

We had an AMAZING event. Finished (which was the goal) and as a bonus ended up being the first ute home!

We met some interesting people...

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
