    Well if you organised a run and got everyone to sign a disclaimer then you are liable for any injury or death caused by an accident.

    Under the current leglislation it would fall under "Duty of Care".

    You see , you knew some one could get injured or killed on the run thats why you made them sign the disclaimer so you could have prevented it by cancelling the event, you would be held resposible for the injury or death, you are the organiser. You contributed to the injury or death by running the event and putting people in the position to be injured.  

    You see they could be out driving themself around getting killed on our roads and thats OK, you have gathered them on a run and organised them into a situation and possibly orchestrated their  fate.

    Now I'm starting to get confused !!!!!!.

    this is the world we live in, be careful !!!!

    And try and have a nice day.

    That is too broad, there are things such as the 'but for' test, which attempts to find as well as limit liability simultaneously.

    ie: but for the cruise being held, would the incident have occurred? or is it but for the actions of the party at fault in an accident, would the harm have been caused? it would be the latter, duty of care revolves around whether the person organising the cruise was put in a position where there was a special relationship with the person suffered harm, quite arguble as in 'how was this duty different from other road incidents under the same circumstances, albeit organised?' was the actions of the tortfeasor (person at fault) were such where the harm suffered to the plaintiff was that reasonbly expected?

    the only way this would come to be fully understood would be in each individual writ/civil case. disclaimers do not waive complete liability especially where there is negligence or other fault elements in failing to provide an adequate duty of care.

    there is never an true and clear cut answer.

Why do we only give Mario & the GTR700 development crew shit, and not HKS, Signal, and so on? The HKS cars, Signal cars etc. were all built in a similar fashion to GTR700 - Not by one person. We also never commented on the first times those cars ran when they were only running 10s etc did we? I think that GTR700 has alot more potential, and considering the little amount of time it's had on the track the times it's ran are pretty impressive. Look at how many runs it took the HKS car to run the times it runs - it didn't just come out onto the track and run a high 7 straight away. It may be an individual providing the $ for the project rather than a company, but everybody involved with GTR700 deserves a fair bit of credit for building the impressive machine they did.  If we're gonna call Mario a chequebook racer in a bad kinda  way, i guess we should be saying the same for 99% of the other fast drag cars out  there.

    Just my $0.02c.

    I suppose its because those cars are workshop and factory backed, not privately owned and funded in the case of GTR700...not to mention tall poppy syndrome.

    950CCA  95A regular cycle and its a 95AH cell

    where as the highest oddesey has to offer is a 65ah cell and the standard battery in skilines id a 45ah cell

    if doing a big install the ah rating is more iportant than the CCA

    and a high regular cycle can only help things along

    dont forget a 100w RMS X2 amp will draw about 300W - 400W from your battery which works out to be about 30 A

    im running 600w worth of amp and it draws almost 1000w from my electrical system

    im using and optima yellow top and i get no dimming of the lights with all healights on

    bottom line is the bigger the battery the better

    I'm suprised nobody has mentioned alternators at all in this discussion.

    Merry christmas!
