  1. every time I try load your page, all I see is your heading text, email addy and the background, no pics.. anyone else having this problem?
  2. Jazza, reckon I spotted your car at BP on Brighton Rd Brighton a couple of weeks ago on a Sunday(?) Avo.. Was next to you in my SP23.. remember the wheels and twin tip exhaust that sounded v-nice!
  3. Cara: Small Car Sunday. Show usually around November(??) each year.
  4. Dan, although I dont have "stupid power" do I qualify for enjoying the drive (re: sunday)
  5. Famous were useless when I was shopping for insurance, took them 3 weeks to get back to me, by which time I had taken out a policy with Shannons, which was still cheaper than the quote they gave me anyway. As said, H2P are not on the net, you need to call.
  6. I would be interested to go about September (15 or 29) to give me a few months to sort out new rear tyres, water pump, t'stat issues etc
  7. BAH! a day without a single wasteland post... will fix that LOL (Esp crabby!)
  8. Krastler, I'm fairly certain that in NSW the registration doesnt include compulsary third party and they have to get a "green slip" or "pink slip" or something on top of that. SA Rego is for registration and compulsory third party... unless you can shed some other light on this? I think VIC may pay slightly less, but its economy of scale. You think of all the extra cars they have on their roads, and we have MORE roads to look after. Therefore to be able to drive from here to the borders, we have to cover greater distance per capita for road works. So if you want to drive on dirt tracks like in the 70's we can pay less
  9. I was speaking to Martin (Hostile) about this yesterday. Aparenlty PKBlade and *flick* are organising an SAU display? guessing one of them will post in here, if not, try sending either of them a PM
  10. ^ Agreed with Bl4ck32 Nah, well if anyone it's the COWS!! (i mean crows)
  11. That looks shit hot Cara! Will have to go for a walk some time this week and have a closer look
  12. Just an update: Had my first "decent" flex through the Adelaide hills yesterday. Was amazed at the way the car handled! Some of the roads were rather rough, and the car gripped beautifuly. I never had any problems keeping with the group, and when I had the chance to lead for a while, well I didnt see them for a bit LOL VERY impressed when on roads that aren't perfectly smooth, and even those that are
  13. After having the Maxxis MA-V1's (235/45/17) on my 33 for around a month now and having my first real flex through the Adelaide hills yesterday avo, all I can say is I'm definately impressed! At $149 a tyre I wasn't expecting heaps, but they just held well yesterday. The roads were a mixture of wet and dry, and the grip was excellent in both. The grip was very progressive, giving indication as to when it felt like it was about to let go, and when it did it was easily controlled again. A very stable and good value tyre with good allround grip.
  14. Excellent Pics Pokie
  15. Yeh 2nd group was flick, Tangles and the rest. The first group to leave Barker (myself, sinista, hostile etc) was about nine of us.. we waited in blackwood for about 45 mins (till around 4:40) but no-one showed so I presumed everyone else had moved on..... oh well doesnt matter now, was just curious. Would love to see photo's people have (esp. my car )
  16. Glad you all enjoyed the route. Tried to have a mix of twisty's and straights, which I think was a reasonable balance Im still trying to work out where the 2nd group went from Mt Barker. Did you all make it down to Strath first before coming back to Meadows, or did you all shortcut straight to Meadows? And did anyone from the 2nd group stop in Blackwood?
  17. Yes Matty, ElectraNet has looked after me so far
  18. Glad everyone liked the route, and everyone seemed well behaved. Pace was good fun, wihtout being crazy, and no word of silly moves or actions, much appreciated all Found 2 slip ups in the notes, but seems everyone had fun, will be happy to organise another one in the future. Was also good to put names to faces What happened to everyone going through strath?! LOL There was a group of 9 of us that were following me once we left Barker, but never saw anyone else again. Even waited for about 45 mins at the final meet point at Coles Blackwood... nothing! EDIT: Actually looking at the pics and the slip up in the notes, seems that ppl may have turned right straight after barker and headed straight to meadows, bypassing strath and Paris Creek Rd????
  19. All requested PMs have now been sent. I wont be on here tomorrow morning, so if someone asks for PM after this, bad luck unless one of the other members can forward PM to anyone who requests. See you all at 12:30 tomorrow
  20. Nope, didn't have my 33 in the city at all this week, and didn't have the SP23 at work yesterday either. End of Financial Year drinks = wife drove me home
  21. It was SA plates on the hummer. Was D&T Exhaust car, with plates along the lines of H2 SUV or something.
  22. Turn out of 4 ppl, Myself, Paully, Fishpaste and ecenshu. Was good to meet some others, and it WILL be done again. Probably a forntight's time, and book a table at a Cafe next time. So all those that work in the city, keep your calendar free for lunch Fiday July 13
  23. Bah, some people f**k it up for everyone
  24. Hey guys When organising a cruise this week, I went to send PM's to those interested, and I had to do them all one at a time!! I have been used to fordforums.com.au and a number of other forums powered by vBulletin where you can PM multiple users by separating each user with a semicolon (; ). This method allows you to PM up to 50 users at once, and saves copy and pasting, sending and creating a new message 50 times. Can we implement this feature here to make life easier for organising events etc where multiple PMs are required? Cheers Lee
  25. P I M P Grenfell St at around 2pm today. 24" rims and black as feck windows 8)
