Urgent Help Needed For Monday

[BIT SUS]

Hey guys, I'm Nigel, a member from Adelaide.

I'm asking for a large favour for monday (04/08/08)

Myself and a mate land at Brissy airport at 9am, and need to get to Morayfield to pick up my new beast from another member, ready to drive home to Adelaide. I would greatly appreciate a lift from a generous member if it was in any way possible. The trip will of course be rewarded with petrol money. The trip is 45kms approx, and would prefer a faster and more economical alternative to a $100 taxi for a <45 minute trip.

I also need to make my way to Queensland transport on piper street at Morayfield also, but thats only a $15 taxi from the car's location, so i have that covered.

Hoping that a member finds it in thier heart to give 2 guys a lift on thier way to work or whatever.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nigel.

cant help with the lift but i'd suggest the train

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

yeah i was gonna suggest the train whist reading too.. would be alot more convenient.. take train to neatest station and bus/taxi it to his house then drive to qld transport.. alternatively if your just looking to trade in the plates just drive to adelaide and trade them in there.. its do-able

i would have been willing to give you a lift but have to work

good luck with the new car

i figured most people would be working. Time is an issue, hence i dont wanna wait for the train. Already checked the time tables, and i'd be losing over an hour of precious travel time. Car is unregoed, so cant drive it till i get permits from qld transport, hence all the taxi's.

Hmm I'd be happy to run you around for the morning but not sure I can get the time off work ><

Surely there is someone on here who works casual work or something?

We don't have any luggage by the way, nor do we smell.... (contrary to rumours)

Easy way to make $50 for 45 minutes of someones time?

We need to hit the road to home by about 11am, so thats why i'd prefer no taxi queues or trains.

Cheers guys

track spec forester?

i didn't realise there were track spec station wagons....

unless the race includes picking up shopping, kids from rugby etc. sorta like what the v8 should do to make it more realistic....

everyone knows bike can't go around corners fast

*hides from col and other bike lovers*

[Revhead]

Haha nah it's true, any decent car will out-corner a decent bike. Look at the difference in how much rubber is on the road - two contact patches the size of a 20c piece versus four big 235mmx20mm or whatever patches. A well-ridden bike can be damn hard to catch but a well driven car should be able to hold more corner speed, the only saving grace for the bike is that it can use wider lines but it takes a LOT of commitment to ride that hard.

It's fun trying though

[Col-GTSX]

ditto...

If the corners are close together and sharp then well setup up cars will have the advantage.

But if its long sweepers and good straights between turns you got no chance of catching a bike.
