I would of thought more than 6

Really needs to show as a percentage, bringing Number of registered Bikes vs registered Cars into the mix

Also spotted that the Age Groups showing that deaths of P-Platers aren't that high compared to older age groups... Even once you realise they're showing the Tabular Data using uneven segment sizes (older age brackets are a 10 year span, where there's three brackets from 18-29)

Out of the millions of drivers on the road, that's the road toll and we devote millions of dollars towards safety campaigns when a road toll is always going to happen :/

State and local government = excuse to keep people in a job

mate took on a new apprentice.
he was telling me how dumb the kid is.
i didnt believe it untill he said aye moh watch this.
calls the kid over and asks him to fax a sheet of paper.
kid asks how?
mate shows him, he leads him into the paint room, places the paper on the scale and turns on the paint shaker.
the kid stands there staring at the paper for a few seconds, shaker going crazy behind him.
mate turns it off and says. done. its sent.

by now im expecting the kid to crack up laughing.
no.
he said thanks and asked what else he can fax

Lol it's the next generation.

Kids are growing up using technology without knowing how it works or gone through the struggle to make it work.

You think any next generation would go through the headache Dezz did with his laptop? To understand what was wrong and how to fix it etc.

As long as someone tells them how to use it that's all that matters lol

Drove the skyline to racepace this morning from my parents house, my dad followed in the evo, then I dropped him at a train station and drove to work...

Somehow, he gutter rashed my black wheels against the curb within 10m of getting into the car... *sigh* So they've got a bright alloy strip that goes 1/4 of the way around the wheel :| Get. f**ked.

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
