i'm glad you are so happy dan. congrats :rolleyes:

Congratulations Dan and Jody. Well done guys. If you manage not to kill each other while trying to plan the wedding then you've truly found your other half.

Shame I missed you both on Friday evening. I did have a celebratory beer for you both though. :)

...Ben

Well I'm sure that this is going to be a long 8 months... the first Week has been hard so far...

Dan: "This month until the pool closes and the show and shine is over I can only do small things in a leisurely manner baby. After that I'll hook into it!"

Jody: "Ok baby, I just need a few things from you that need to be done as soon as you get a chance, preferably before the end of the week."

Dan: "Ok, what are they?"

THE LIST(So Far)

Find Venue

Decided on Guests

Decide on Bridal Party

Select Photographer (Think I have that one covered already... see how good I am)

Book Celebrant

Decide who is paying for what

Collect Quotes from Florist's

Set Date (Done that!)

Find out prices for Catering

Decided on generalised menu

Cake

Dresses

Suits

Gifts

Invitations

Honey Moon

All this due by the end of the week! (**** this Work doesn't have deadlines like this!)

Apparently I am still required to work, which I am rostered for 66hours this week (probably will end up more), Go to Rugby training, Organise the Final Bits and Pieces for Show and shine, and if I'm lucky I might be allowed an hour or twos sleep!

Maybe I need to draft up some Supp Regs as far as this Wedding organisation! I already have a self formed committee in place... but mum and dad don't think along the same lines, let alone Both our sets of parents...

Nads, Next time you swing by make hopefully I will be around, I was annoyed I missed you... but Fridays untill the end of March are THE WORST DAYS for me. (work 5am - 9pm).

Thanks Breesta!

    • 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.
