Don't mean to hijack but just after opinions on whether I should get a 1000hp GTR or a toyota yaris?

Alonso just making me love him even more He probably didn't need to know what happened as he has first hand experience with Louise's f**k-headedness (that is now a word)

lol @ everyone else braking late and going wide...you're the only one I saw lock your brakes and push every car on the outside of you completely off the track. Not sure how anyone can take that as him admitting fault...

someone make me one of those pictures with the following THE BARON I f**kin love him!

lol What I saw was a man 7 points in front of a man 4 positions behind him on the grid, squeeze his own team mate (f**k being a tail gunner to that flamin mongrel!) then completely f**k it up under brakes, push several cars completely off the track, then drive around the outside of the corner and back onto the track. The drive through was a good decision in my opinion. It's like a guy being 3 seconds behind leading up to turn 1 at Fuji, deciding to not brake and just drive straight up the inside straight under the guy braking properly and actually turning in as you're supposed to, ruining his corner and then planting it around the outside of the turn and off into the distance. I say f**k HAMILTON. Once again he's showing us that he lacks composure when it counts. He was on pole, with his nearest rival in the WDC 4 positions AND behind his team mate in Kova. KR smashed him off the line and Kova probably had him beat as well, but instead of settling into 3rd behind 2 nobodies (as far as 08 WDC goes), and either finishing behind them yet still in front of his nearest rival, or passing them during the course of the race, he thought he'd be a f**king hero and shove it up the inside of every single one of them. Keep it up Hamilton. The only thing sweeter than seeing another Ferrari double this year will be to see you lose it due to your own stupidity!

they do seem as common as a ferrari could be...Probably the first thing I'd go out and buy if I won the lotto though...although not the spider, and the scuderia

2 F430 spiders on saturday night, one with the plates F3R4RI or similar (i was well trashed) parked outside beach and another F430 spider on sunday afternoon all in st kilda/port melbourne area

That's Massa's season done barring any mishaps for Hamilton At least he still knows how to show good sportsmanship unlike certain other drivers.

Heard of plenty of front mounts being powder coated (on factory and some race team cars) without any problems

I'm sure AP will be there considering he's now running it...

Should be able to make this one

there's a guy looking for a set in the WTB section...

Is the front mount powder coated Al?

Maybe Shane can help out in that department....

You can't say whether or not it could have been avoided as you weren't driving the truck, nor were you there when it happened. For all you know the truck was changing lanes in the moments leading up to the impact, in which case he would have been checking his mirror before changing lanes, and rightfully so. The split second it took to check the mirror would be all that was needed to not notice the driver of the GTR breaking the law by passing the white line. Or perhaps he was so aware of his surroundings that he knew that swerving to avoid the person breaking the law would result in the almost certain death of the mother and her 3 kids in the lane next to him... At the end of the day the driver of the GTR was wrong, and thats all that matters.

I'll no longer be at the west pre-meet, but anyone else coming from the west is obviously free to still meet with any others at the meet point and head down together...Shattered that I'm gonna miss this, hopefully I'll be at the next one! Have some duck for me mah man!

May have a Sony XPLOD head unit...I'd have to find it but I'll see what I can do..

potential problems? knocking?

It's been raised at committee meetings, and I can see where you're coming from Mat. It was decided not to go the PM route as like AP said already, its easy for anyone to PM asking for the meet point...Also these meets wouldn't be the same if only the regulars were notified...they'd be a lot smaller. There's been plenty of meets in the past like these that have gone off without a hitch...the last 1 had some extra attention, and now thats the only meet people seem to remember. This is just a social gathering. Anyone expecting springnats, or wanting to go for some midnight club togue runs, this is not the meet for you.

what kind of problems would you expect when running a stock afm at that kind of power level?

with the right rails, yes and the east bear seats aren't replicas...they're the same seats with different fabric. 'replicas' are cheap and nasty...east bear are not

for what?

coulda sworn his name was danny too

It's looking as though I won't have my car back in time for this....The meet will still run, I just might not be able to make it.

VLTURBO RB20 or something similar...
