Nah Ian, I wasn't cold > I was hot, trying to get the videocam restarted & warmed up at the last hillclimb, because I knew you guys were right on my tail.

Great Pics too Matt - with some astute framing + touching up to capture the dramatics + the impact!

Wow Matt, your Nur goes up hill quicker then my car going down hill lol

It was funny, that biker you can see in the vid came up on us pretty quick. He overtook and when I applied a bit of pressure during a faster section he started popping wheelies. Got close enough to see his ponytail. A nutter, but a nutter with skills

Oh Matt, we need to get that Nur to the skidpan with Terry's N1 and have a father R34 vs son R34 sort of thing.

hey nick, vid didn't turn out the greatest, what with the iphone and all. will take another look on the PC and see if it's worth uploading at all

glad you got the brakes sorted

60 seconds maximum on the skidpan for one run at lunch time. You'll be fine without all that stuff ;)

You guys just come along and I'll sort out an easy course for you both and a stopwatch to see which Tung-Yep R34 is the quicker one whenever it suits you both

Oh, also need to open up the betting books haha

Still awaiting pat's wrap up story.

Come one Mr Hamilton, dont be shy.

sigh, fine.

overcooked it a little coming down the mountain with Terry, Matt, ian, rob and whoever was in the blue 34GTR. Basically we were being held up big time by some dude in a lumbering tin tray work ute so eventually Matt backed off enough to give us a bit of room and then when we jumped on the gas to catch up again i lost it going into a sharp left hander and somehow stopped myself from going over the cliff by the use of lots of braking, pointless steering (locked up so i dont think the direction of the wheels made a difference) and prayer.

Ended up just a few inches shy of the armco by the time i shuddered to a halt, meekly put it back in gear and trundled down the hill a little less hastily from then on. Ian was right behind me so im sure he was chuckling all the way down..im just glad my video camera battery died before it happened, its embarrassing enough telling the story let alone having to relive it on screen!

Sheesh Patty, you added me to your Facebook and you still don't know my name? :P

I might update my profile to "anonymous driver of Blue 34GTR"... ;)

Lol sorry mang, I'm the worst with names though. I was calling Matt everything other than Matt for years until it finally sunk in last wknd, ian I'm cheating because his name is in his username, sort of same deal with terry but i have known him long enough now so I actually know it off by heart.

Rob lives down the road and is a drinking buddy so same story, actually that's one way to get me to never forget someone's name. If they get me drunk (at least until the next morning)

There's a hint of what your name is in the vid at Albion Pk.

...robbing Pattie to pay Paul or sumfin like that ;)

Judging by the amount of lock-up smoke, your ABS isn't so AB.....

You didn't get a video? but guess who did!!

How did I miss that scene in the rear view mirror?!

you guys where long gone around the corner. that's why it happened, he didn't have you as a breaking marker.

He was inches from the armco, and if someone had been coming up the hill at that time, his radiator would have been inches from his chin.
