No preference, they seem to have shops all over the place these days anyway, all with 30+ courtesy cars parked out the front

Well, I've had bad experience from the Deer Park one along with another member here. The owner or in charge there is a young guy which tried to milk my money and did apparently stuff another members car on here....

Apart from ripping you off how was the workmanship? I'm not paying for it so cost doesn't bother me

Thinking I want a GS now...I'll let Leigh post his times lol

Haha yeah good quick daily with no cop troubles

So yeah was 2 degrees up at heathcote and track was very dewy and glazed they had to call it off just after 9 so only got in 3 runs.

first run was just sussing out the track 12.2 @ 126mph with a 2.2 60ft, really just let off line slowly.

2nd run did a 11.61 @ 126mph with 1.85 60ft (more like it but knew it had bit more in it)

3rd run bit later in the night again and you could really tell track wasn't up to scratch 11.8 @ 126mph with a lot of wheel spin then that was it.

I had the gopro on helmet so i'll post up my 11.61 run

stock parts? that's boring... and probably more expensive (for what you get).

get a stock wrecker motor. throw it in and then be happy.

Not too sure about the workmanship as my stolen car was towed to them until my insurance picked it up, just glad I didn't have to deal much with them.

Been to WestWood Auto Body Shop on Westwood drive, while their customer service was good, their workmanship wasn't the best. Having to get them redo my car twice before getting it to a decent level.

First visit, the rear bumper wasn't repaired properly as the cracks in the bumper were still visible. Second time it had about 3-4 drops of clear coat almost the size of rain drops...

If they're willing to be dodgy in one aspect of the business, I'd be concerned about their attitude towards other practices like workmanship too...likely have apprentices working on your car and save time cutting corners etc.

Like those horror workshops who charge people 50k to tek screw their body kits on.

11.6? damn. what tyres?

stock engine with bolt-ons (injectors, turbo, exhaust and ECU) won't crack 200 and still I cost me $600 for a tune. I'm thinking its worthy getting work done on it now while it's out. the block still requires machining to convert to FWD

got call from engine builder last night... spun 1 bearing, scoring on saddle and caps, cam lobes and springs damaged... sounds like I might have over-revved it too :S which I kinda remember doing at sandown. my shift light should get chucked in once back on the road and then get an electrical-cut rev limiter...

Street tyres nitto nt05

I reckon with some proper slicks on a good night would be very close to a 10

I love how it was one of the quickest there and I just drive home apparently it was pretty funny cos of how quiet the car is compared to the ones I was racing

Huxtaburger was good. Never seen so many hipsters in one spot in my life. No wonder Hamish loves it, he fits in.

Home Alone didnt have a plot twist.

Lost In Translation didnt have a plot twist.

Monsters Inc. didnt have a plot twist.

Every Stanley Kubric probably didnt have a plot twist.

Oliver Twist didnt have a plot twist.

Twister didnt have a plot twist.

The Plot To Kill Hitler didnt have a plot twist.

Joey and the Plot Twist didnt have a plot twist.

Home Alone - kid got left home alone

Lost In Translation - when bill murray's character meets a chick you expect him to fall in love with she instead makes him remember he loves his family

Monsters Inc. - the monster realise that scaring children is bad

Oliver Twist - after getting kicked out of the orphanage he ends up around criminals, which in turn reminds him that he doesn't want to be like them

Twister - dude is trying to divorse his mrs because of her tornado obsession, but then ends up chasing tornado's with her

Every Stanley Kubric - the shining.... is just a series of plot twists joined together. clockwork orange has alex turning good and then bad again. full metal jacket has private pile commit suicide

The Plot To Kill Hitler - hitler was in a room of trusted officers when one of them placed a suitcase full of explosives next to him (albeit on the wrong side of the table leg) after surviving this hitler became much more cautious.

Joey and the Plot Twist - this is just something you made up.
