Hey - from memory you guys wanted to watch some Gwenith Paltrow movie or some such shite! At least rugby is a big step up from that crap! Still - we might have to do some flicking to the footy scores in the boring bits of the rugby (hang on - thats most of isn't it?)

Hang on nothing wrong with Mrs Roy (Paltrow) and nothing boring about Union, especially the dirty Sth Africans :P

Well its on people...its 5am Friday morning im at work and i dont have a car....so Hertz and an Echo and a prayer for rain might be the goer

But no matter what ill be coming...Remember if staying at the place i arranged we need to bring our own linen ...

As i walked to work with a full backback i wasnt able to throw in a dooner and a friend has my sleeping bag so if someone could bring a blanket for me, i wont need as big a beer blanket :P

Does supply own linen normally mean pillows/towels as well...i didnt ask (Sorry)

AND remember to bring your CAMS Licences :P ...

I saw your clutch being dropped off. Fingers crossed Troy! I'm still to pick up my car also.

 

Oh and I'm at work now and of course I forgot my linen too. I'll have to get the Mrs to bring it down with her.

LOL...nothing like leaving things to the last minute then panicking :P .

Well just got confirmation that the car is ready to run bar engine oil and power stering fluid, so onto the dyno for a tune and provided the thing can be tuned and runs ok then ll have a car...but im not getting my hopes up too high...the engine has warranty etc etc but the new engine is still an unknown quantity.

Heres to hoping for a change of luck, : :P

hope your car is ready troy, i wanna see the beast in action :P

my oil cooler is going on today yay

Oil cooler = peace of mind :P

...as for beast, if you mean loud, spews oil all over the track and akin to havign a growth on your ass, then yeh my car is a beast :confused:

And from the Bureau of Meteoroogy...strong winds but no showers and around 13-18degrees

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
