and is the carpark noticeable when you turn right at those lights, silv?!

noticeable?? lol

you turn right and all you see on you left is a massive car park

it will be empty at night so no speed hump issues etc.

depending on what time you all meet

i might come say hello if you decide to meet there

Well, my dreams have come true, i was supposed to work this weekend, but i have got it off on leave! If i had to work i was gonna chuck a sickie :wassup:

So far so good, im going to go for a cruise through the nasho at around 8pm to make sure the road is open and warm my tires up :D

Ill see you all on waratah street at 9:30pm Sat night! w00t!

How about this one, I know it seems like doubling back or something, but its only 5 mins out of homebush, then back through to kirrawee? big carpark to meet at

Brays Bay Reserve

my advice is don't do brays bay reserve. it is a known pick up point for homosexuals and also for drug deals and of course car clubs. police go through there regularly, not that that should be a problem as I'm sure you will all be driving roadworthy cars in a law abiding fashion, but still the attention is unwanted I'm sure.

been busted there a couple times have we??

picking up lil boys

lol

Quote: Flora St in kirrawee, there's a fair bit of on street parking there, a very very dead quiet street at night (that part of it is anyway) /Quote...

Probably not a gd idea parkin anywhere on that street, as theres a police station, but maybe all the way further down that street would be ideal..

the police station is on the OTHER side of the street, all the way in sutherland.

Either way, i say we stick to the original plan. 8:30pm meet at homebush, 9:30 meet at kirrawee, 10pm leave for nasho

nah, but last time I was at a meet there was two little kids asking for you. they said you had some candy for them? either way that place is best not used for night meets.... unless you're into that.....silver.

dunno mate. thinking about it. not really keen on these big 'runs'. too much opportunity for inexperienced drivers to cause grief to themselves and to me. much prefer a trackday or the like. having said that a nice spirited drive with the legal speed limits (which I'm sure this is) on some nice roads is always fun.

Are you guys sure u want to go through so early? chances are there will be people coming back from the clubs in bundeena and mainbar around that time. some of u 'flamin hooligans' might not want cars coming the otehr way...

Ill be meeting u all at kirrawee

heh This should be good!

looking forward to it!

anyone bringing a dig cam to make a small video or something of the night?

Im bringing digi cam and digi video cam. Ive got 2 passengers so one can take photos and one can take videos! I hope i dont have to much wheight on board! Dont wanna get slowed down in the NASHO! :(

what thomas said!!

guys.. please be careful out there.. there are plenty of straights for overtaking, so wait for them.. none of this overtaking around blind corners as i have seen some idiots do!!!

just remember... its a spirited drive, not a race!!!

meet place is still homebush... seeya there!

:werd:

Especially with the 35 km/h corners. Dont under estimate them! I know 3 people that have lost a car each on this one corner because it has a double apex. All in all we are all in for a fun drive. Moanie, are we gonna stop when we get to stanwell tops? for a regroup then convoy it up the freeway?

    • 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.
