Hey guys :wavey:

eventful night!!!!

How I ended up leading for the first leg of the Old Pac I have no idea.... lol

Anyway, my account of the night was pretty much the same as Liquid's with a few differences.

At the mobil, there were just way too many skylines. Thought it best not to stay there so decided to make a move, and everyone started following me. So I pulled over so someone else could lead. But nope, everyone pulled in behind me. : lol (did you all think I was liz? ;) )

Anyway, eventually someone passed me and started driving along. Then you all decided not to enter the old pac :confused: LOL :(. So again I was leading, and sticking to the speed limit when that 200sx with the neons, and a skyline (I thought it was a 33) decided to come flying past us and proceed to hammer it. So I let you guys, whoever you were, go have your fun (I was worried about cops), and then just as I started to open it up a little a highway patrol car decided to pull out of one of those hiding places RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME...slowly...no headlights, no nothing!!! :(

I hit the brakes hard, not wanting to screech the tires. I decided there was no way I was going to stop without screeching (I was heading towards the police car's door) so I crossed the doulble centre lines and went around him swearing at the time, thinking that was it, if he's not gonna get me for speeding (I wasn't), he's gonna get me for crossing the double centre lines. Rukus was right behind me at this stage too, and with the nice policeman blocking half the road he had to go around him over double centre lines to. Next thing we know, blue reds....

I'm thinking, "crap crap crap crap crap, he's got rukus." Next thing I know he races past rukus and then sits on my arse!!! Now I'm thinking, "Oh shit shit shit, now I'm screwed." So I indicate and start to come to a stop, and vroooooooooommm the patrol car speeds past me.

That's when we decided to stop at the nearest big'ish opening, regroup and maybe rethink continuing on this road.... glad we didn't, some guys got defected up further apparently.

The cruise to wiseman's was pretty nice. No troubles there. :) But hey guys, right at the end where we were parked and a few of you decided to do burnouts, there was a police station less than 2mins away....I know some of you went past it when we went to the wrong ferry first. So ummm what were you thinking with the burnouts?

The group that left last got hassled by the police all the way to windsor, most probably because of the burnouts.

Anyway, overall, even with the police everywhere, and nearly hitting a police car (for me anyway), I had a good night. Everyone that I met, was good to meet ya :).

No more long weekend cruises though for me though. I think alot of us were lucky last night to have not ended up worse off. But hey, I had fun still :), but I didn't get to open it up at all. Ah well, can't wait till the next track day.

no idea.. but yeah, the police presence was expected. But I had already said I was going before I realised that it was the Queen's birthday long weekend. Didn't want to pike.

btw, to all those on the cb....

asses

:(

I was the first going down old pac 2 dicks went past then the cops came out behind me and pulled the 3 of over the 1st car got the sticker i got let off (i was not speeding) and i dont know about the other 1

the cops where ok

other than that good turn out but we need to plan where we are going better

eg Monas sheet of directions last wisemans cruse

despite all the dramas...i had a good cruise.

Sorry to Liquid...i totally forgot you were following me and I stopped and waited for you for ages..then saw some lights about 200metres back so I hit the accelerator again and was thinking I was all that coz I totally lost you..and I wasn't even speeding...lol....but later found out that you guys had turned off ages ago..lol..

To the guy who was taking photos of rear....(of the car)....you have to ask permission before you pull thoses sorts of stunts! lol...

Sorry Wil for the Millions of calls...where are we going now, what are we doing, why haven't we stopped , we're going WHERE?!?.....I promise next cruise I'll get my own CB.

Next time...I wish for daylight, a CB little maps, and organised re-grouping sites to ensure EVERYONE gets there!

Good cruise Apple

good to see you again mona!.....i alway see thomas..;p i still own u a ride in my car..

rick when r u getting ur car back??

omg, I just remembered the funniest thing!

For those of you who were crossing the gorge at the same time as me..there was this car on the other side which refused to reverse and give us a little more room to get around..holding up all of us and the cars which were behind her..lol..idiot..but anyway...Im sure you remember.

Once I made it past her, she gave me the dirtiest look!!!..lol..but wait that's not my point. The guy in the car behind me...lent out the window and goes....

"Is that a women driver.?? " he was full shaking his head going 'is it? is it?'

So go 'yeah bloody women drivers....i can't believe this' and went on and on about the whole incident and had a bit of a bitch about women drivers!!! lol

My passenger was wetting himself he was laughing so hard...when i asked why the hell he was laughing he just goes 'do you have any idea what you just said?' lol...I had no idea I was bagging out women drivers....lol

I think when he was driving away he realised who he was speaking to! lol

    • Well, in 2007 he must have been charging about $1800 an hour. He only looked at the car for 5 minutes. And another 4 to write the report wrong, and another minute to correct it. Mind you, this was for a car that was: Stock engine, fmic (hole in drivers guard), all alloy intake and custom air box, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, lowered, and a set of 17" Advans (255/40/17 rear and 235/45/17 front). It was nothing crazy. The blue slipper wanted the "hole in the guard" engineered. But that was because he got the shits that I wouldn't "relocate the battery from the boot, back to the factory position in the engine bay"... In an R33 GTST...     Also for emissions, E85, and don't go wild on timing. It's amazing how the closer you get ignition timing towards max torque, the last couple of degrees really throw NOx counts right up. And for the huge increase in emissions, it's only a small increase in torque.
    • He'll be looking down and swearing about "the damn apprentice" for trying to convince Duncan to use percussive maintenance... 😛  
    • I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.
    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
