Snowman and SIRVROOOMMM @ The Dutton

[Snowman]

Alright,

A Number of people have requested an event schedule for this weekends Dutton Rally of Victoria so they can come down and watch Gerald and I have some fun.

Below is a copy of the event schedule - it should be noted that on a few of the days they split the groups up into 2. If you were specifically coming down just to see us it should be noted we are number 47.

Plenty of great cars to see - R32/33/34 GTRs, Supra's, STi's, RX7's and EVO 8's will lead the Jap cars against the masses of porka's (23 of them including turbo, GT2 and way too many GT3's), plus M3's, M5, as well as a nice brand new twin turbo Noble M12 GTO-3R! Plus heaps of other cars (85 all up) Drivers include V8 Supercar drivers, Targa Tas winners and place getters, Carrera Cup, and MotoGP. Should be a whole lot of fun.

Sounds like Sunday works for me to watch the drags, skidpan and Airport.

[Snowman]

Yeah Sunday drags will be funny considering I've never done it before! haha.

[Horus]

cool

channel 10 should cover the event

I EXPECT to see gezza and Richo caining it on TV!!!!

[meshmesh]

I'll meet you guys at the Airport, Skidpan, with the Video Camera.

PS: Can I bring a BIG BROTHER type banner??..

[meshmesh]

Andrew, who's doing the driving, you or G.?

[Snowman]

In the Dutton Rally you both drive. So we do each event twice. Its what makes the Dutton so much fun - not only get to compete against other cars but against your mate as well.

There's no way I'm letting Gerald beat me in MY car! LOL.

[GTRgeoff]

Fastest car in the world...somebody elses!!! See you there Simon.

[RagE]

I'll be at Winton again for a look

Good luck, sounds like some good fun.

[INASNT]

Fastest car in the world...somebody elses!!! See you there Simon.

Correction. Fastest car in the world is a hire car, second is someone elses car

Sounds like an awesome event, gerald is sure to give ur car a good trashing

Uh Huh, and a hire car is someone elses

Good thing about Gerald thrashing it is he can fix it later

[doxximus]

is your car at ice atm?

im going tomorrow, i'll loosen a few wheels nuts, it makes your car faster, honest

[Laurence]

Correction. Fastest car in the world is a hire car

DRIVE IT LIKE YOU RENTED IT

I always thought that would be better. In a stolen car I would try to keep a low profile.

I am a Hertz Gold Member from all the hire cars i drove last year for work

[Duncan]

Good luck on the weekend guys, you'll have a ball

Don't forget to take a good set of cheater tyres, they make all the difference

[Snowman]

Brand spanking new set of RE55's went on yesterday mate. No worries there!

did you try convincing nige to enter his car?

[Snowman]

I believe Nige is thinking about it for next year but we'll see. He's taking it to the track for the first time on the up-coming PIARC weekend. But in all honesty after getting the full event details last night on what all the event layouts are like I don't think it really suits the supra.

But his plan is to get the 1/4 mile record back off the Sub Zero car in a few months - then turn it into a track weapon. So we'll see what happens. My co-driver might have his R32 ready for next year as well.

[INASNT]

I think nige will get his record back quite easily

[Bec]

Is the Dutton televised?????

Andrew, is it possible to post a lst of channels/times of television coverage - if you know them?????

Thanks heaps.
