Sounds cool, but to what end really?

The appeal of Tarmac rally is the fact that it's not on a circuit with safe run off and barriers and ready access to fire marshals.

Good thing anyway, but I'm not sure fans will really appreciate what they are seeing. Surely some will, but yeah got my old man pants on today. Get off my lawn.

EDIT: Just thinking, I'm hoping you guys are going to have some sort of staging area or something to field questions and talk Tarmac Rally/Show off the cars etc, that would be sweet.

ABSOLUTELY PUMPED for it!!!!!!

I am here fist pumping like a champ typing one handed!

I'm not pleased about not saucing it up Friday though! :P

Dan, it's more about an opportunity to thank some sponsors and let them "experience" the car. Given tarmac rally cars are approved for passengers we can go full tilt. No, it's not a rally stage. No, it's not even timed. But, we get to drive the full F1 course as fast as we want, and show passengers (whether that be sponsor/spouse/mate/whatever) what the cars can do. Add to that the cars being displayed all weekend, AND a 4 day pass to the Brabham corporate stand, I reckon it's well wicked!

I'll be messing with the F1 game's settings in hope of replicating the Ute's behaviour.

100 metre mark you say... PFFFFT, look out champ, coz at that rate I'll be diving up the inside. Keep an eye out for me!

Helmet ? What are they...

Given the conditions we weren't allowed a full tilt, was behind a pace car! Bugger!!

Could only imagine what it would be like at full tilt though. Great surface, super wide in most places, just going to be insane for you guys.

Weather permitting ofcourse!

Hope you've been well...

Wanted to do it after I found out its not just a single session on one of the days, and includes sinking piss & food in a Brabham corner corporate box! Alas I have a close mates bucks on the Saturday - thought of doing Thurs and Friday only entered my mind but can't justify the kesh at the moment.

What is the deal with taking footage - has Bernie issued you guys a statement saying you can't take / use footage / he owns it or the like?

Can completely understand not being able to go hard in those conditions.... looks appalling!

Hope you're well too John.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
