Nick wrapped for the first time.

He needs to get used to them, Max went easy on him

you can tell Max knows what he's doing with those wraps... good for me as they take some of the pressure off my knees... can't wait to have a crack at 200kg

Australia Day 2007 I held my first comp, and I've had one every Australia Day since, except this one.

On that first one we had 8 competitors, here is what they squatted

Neil 90kg

Ghosty 105kg

Cory 105kg

Jovi 120kg

Adam 130kg

Simon 140kg

Herc 140kg

Benny 145kg

All lifts were PB's at the time, some by a long way.Move forward to 2013, heres who was in the gym squatting and what their squat PB is.

Rowdy 210kg

Zoran 225kg

Martin 227.5kg

Emad 232.5kg

Spiros 235kg

Daniel 240kg

Max 250kg

Jack 300kg

The strange thing is, with long arms like his he is supposed to have a huge deadlift and shit bench, like Fuzzy

The prick still benches 150kg

By the looks in his deadlift vid , Martin has a very strong upper back as well. He finishes the deadlift movement with some good power in the top range. That strong upper back is likely one good reason his bench is solid despite long arms.

    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
