Can't miss Strahan, its beautiful...

Edit: idiot didn't read the whole post

Strahan has 98

Funny how when you get into the car benny it changes to a GTR lol (looking at the results). Sounds like shes great fun!

WOuld be interested in black set if similar to above price

I'd whore myself, but im probably too expensive for you lot, better than a $2 hooker though (no f**ky sucky). I think Buller is pretty close to then also... Hmm

How does this event work? Is it like dutton? where its the combined effort of driver/co-driver in each discipline?

Seen the (dunlop) light then?

Wow thats a really good time ben! were you running on RE55's?

I have one still attached to an elbow, dont' have the accomodating pipes though stu?

I found a few links for streaming with english, but they don't seem to be talking about the N24 more like Indy or the american lemans series??? try them anyway http://rlm08.0157.org/n24.php# video + audio http://globecast.workscast.com/ audio also looks like the 2nd VIP petfoods Porsche was involved in an incident with an M3, haven't seen them rejoin the results yet.

Yep.. I just made a mess

have an XF if your interested

Mate, 1 thing I have learnt, even if your not winning you gotta look good! Christened it on the weekend I was always expecting a sexy lady to be coming, but then I turn round and its you

Puma's motorsport range are the same sizes as their casual shoes. comfy too...

Thanks guys means alot! I should also publically thank Ben, I was actually quite worried to begin with getting in a car with someone I had never really met, I didn't know his background in motorsport other than a few Targas navigating. 4 days recceing soon confirmed it for me, this guy has some idea of whats going on. I think after completing the event I can quite comfortably say I have never been in a car before with someone who once helmets are on, is so calm, he did all the right things, knew what to do when things go slightly wrong. And his driving? SMOOTH lines! It certainly makes you feel alot more comfortable to be sitting alongside someone who drives like this! Definately some of the best driving I have experienced! I think given the right equipment and opportunities Ben would be a certain force to be reckoned with. And a word of advice, stick to driving mate, your GOLD!

or the fact that people driving at 50km/h is painfully slow

I would rather this be televised than an entire season of AFL

Me too

If its the accident im thinking of we were first on scene to assist, The skelta may have slowed down through there, but so did every other car through, if they were the ones that stopped at the SOS point to notify then I stand corrected. We got an atrotious derived time, but also had to live with it. It also pushed us to the back of the field which puts alot of pressure on with the sweep car so close. It doesn't really give you much incentive to stop for an accident, and the rules state that you won't be penalised for stopping, but sadly everyone seems to. Im no expert in the method they use to calculate it, but considering we passed 1 car and were very close to the car when it crashed, if it hadn't we would have probably passed it also.

Wasn't Reece Dam just down right dangerous at that time of the day, particularly as the sun was very low on the horizon, zero vision! Still loved it, very fast and flowing. Major WTF seeing people standing 100m out in the scrub with their OK boards up, we didn't realise it was such an easy clean. I'll attempt to upload our footage, but im pretty disappointed with it, wind noise FTL, it has potential, but i haven't found it yet. For the money though can't complain, and we got every stage so its a bit of a record. Should also mention that its a big THUMBS UP for the course this year and AASA was definately a pleasure to run under and its a credit to Mark Perry, Stuart Benson and all the team at Octagon. PS stuart if you read this I was jealous as f**k seeing you driving off in that 997 Turbo, pity it was tiptronic

Nice to see you admiring our car up at burnie lunch/service. Thanks for letting the boys park the Truck out the front

Hey guys, just got home from Hobart. f**king rapt in getting 12th outright, 1st in class and 1st privateer home, I have to thank Benny so much for letting me sit along side him for a week calling the shots, I had a ball and have never felt so alive in all my life. Congrats to all who finished and to those who didn't i hope you have a speedy recovery/get the car back out there. Manions had an off on Mt Arrowsmith, all ok... we thought they might have just beached it on a culvit, turns out they put it into the bank, not too bad and its already on the way to the panel shop for repairs. The GTR didn't sustain any serious damage, just got a bunch of punctures and i think damaged some suspension components. It was still being driven around and being put on display. Bring on next year, im hungry to go fast again.
