Hey Shanus,

When does the new season start for the midweek comp in Waverly? Im about to start a team and looking for a midweek comp that starts in the new year not in April next year like alot of them do.

Where abouts in Waverly are the courts?

Unfortunately all the stadiums run summer and winter comps... so our next season will be april as well.

The current summer season is into round 10, but a team has just pulled out of wednesday night and there is a space. One team has already enquired about taking this space but if it falls through, what say an SAUVIC team is created? That would be pretty sweet, but I couldn't play haha as I already play so I wouldn't create the team but can help you get into the comp if you really want?

For all the individuals keen just to join an existing team, all i can do is take your details and pass them on, so you'll have to pm me everything about yourself and a contact, or find me under 'contact us' at the website and drop me a line at work.

The Waverley stadium is behind office works and the Matthew Flinders Hotel in Chadstone. (between Warrigul and Huntingdale)

Anyways, for more info check www dot waverleybasketball dot com

cheers,

Shane

we should make a SAU TEAM shoutgun shooting guard :D

u wanna lose weight?

this is what i do - basketball 3 times a week, swim 4 - 5 times a week, gym 5 times a week, other cardio (eg treadmill) 3 times a week

geez that's keen! nah I'm not really fat just unfit and I have always played basketball of some sort... team sports are much more fun than just going to the gym (which I also do)

weight work is the best for burning fat... cardio you only burn fat for the time your doing the exercise but if you add muscle you will find you burn more fat (energy) 24hrs a day... never go by what the scales say as weight is misleading... my old man is a personal trainer and that's what he says anyway lol

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
