  1. If anyone could arrange it for the zombie apocalypse to occur tonight, it would be much appreciated. kthxbai
  2. Somehow I don't think that would be covered under warranty...
  3. I have... Wait, what? Good Choice. I know the feeling... At least I could track mine pretty much realtime with DHL's tracking number
  4. RE: Photo drama above. Yep, I hope Luke sues his a*se, just to rub salt into the wounds.
  5. LOL. The full story is this: Was ~4 or 5 cars back at a T junction, waiting to turn right. This particular T junction has very poor visibility to the left (crest) and is a fairly busy road. Was waiting there for quite some time, and there was a number of large gaps in the traffic that the front car did not take. I assumed it must be a useless P-Plater/L-Plater/Woman, and was starting to get p*ssed off. Anyway then the guy jumps out and asks the guy behind him for a push. I got out to help too, as did one or two others. It was a VP commo or something, and as we pushed it away there was a MASSIVE puddle of oil under it (like, the whole sump worth). Nasty. So then we go back to our cars and proceed on our merry way. Now by this time, there is a MASSIVE line up of cars waiting to turn right, and we have all been waiting some time as well, so the gaps being taken were perhaps a bit more optimistic than usual... Anyway I get to the front of a line, see a gap and go for it. As pull out, a cop car comes flying over the crest to the left, but I am already halfway out into the first lane so I am committed. So what I do is give it a bit of juice in order to get a hurry on and try not to cut the copper off too much, right. But of course, my rear tyres are now coverred in the oil that had vacated the afforementioned VP commo's sump, resulting in instant traction loss despite only a little throttle tap. The end result of this was a beautiful sideways entrance into the lane I wanted to be in, right in front of the cop car I was busy cutting off... I thought I was going to be in for trouble for sure. Anyway maybe half a km down the road is the train crossing I mentioned before, which we had to sit and wait for about a million trains to go through. Cop car was right behind me for the whole time, and then a few kms after as well before going our seperate ways. I can only assume they left me alone for one/more of the following reasons 1) I suspect they were speeding, and knew it. They came flying over that crest 2) They spotted the puddle of oil and matching tracks leading to my wheels, and the broken down commo on the side of the road, and managed to put 2+2 together. 3) Pintara factor/end of shift/etc. 4) Good kharma repayment for helping to push old mate's car 5) I am a god. The evidence has been there too long to keep denying it...
  6. Good guess, would definitely get away with that in the F. But no, I was in the wedge.
  7. Nope, they had plenty of time to see me. Spent about 20 minutes sitting behind me at a rail crossing actually...
  8. Morning Mangs, Cut off a police car this morning and did skids in front of them. They didn't pull me over
  9. I would join you at carseldine if I wasn't going to the german club

  12. German Club http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/374857-epische-wurst-am-deutschen-klub/
  13. KrautWagen = aussie slang for "German Car" @John, which one?
  14. I do sprints in my daily
  15. I use Trackmaster on my SGS2. I think it is better than racechrono, which I used to use on my old nokia (could just be the sh*t gps in the nokia though). Not sure if it is available on iFail either though...
  16. For those interested, 'helmet mount' goPro kit and LCD backpack, on special at torpedo7: http://www.torpedo7.com.au/torpedo7/catalogindexsearch.do?formAction=search&hide=true&searchString=BrandId:G6 It's only happy laps, I wouldn't be worried about that. Come to a sprint day or something then go flat through the kink +11ty. Happy laps is not the time to be finding the braking points, or taking the kink flat...
  17. Yeah I am a lazy f**ker. In for German. Also, I has a phone
