I asked everytime we lined up it was a dark haired bloke not the normal Red head  

Red head he is great

The red headed guy who normally does the lane control is a top bloke and has looked after me and my mate jayosn (Black Mopar) many times when

we wanted to race each other.

and will organise it the dark haired fellow was a tool and would shrug his shoulders and say "if you want to run get in there or leave"  

I have had unpleasant experiences with a dark haired ANDRA guy at WISD who sometimes does the water box control.

The night I got bounced for running slicks with radials on the front I had to go to the pits and swap back to my street tyres. When I drove around the water box, this ****wit came up to me and told me if I touched the red area (the area in between the lanes that the officials stand inside) again I would be thrown out of the event.

I then watched countless other people with street tyres drive around the water box without any comment from captain ****wit.

I had my incar cameras on and captured the entire exchange ...

DYO sucks arse.

If they really have to have DYO, why dont they have it the other way. Instead of being eliminated for going under your time, get eliminated for going over your time.

That way there is no braking at the end.

The way it is at the moment doesnt make any sense to me.

I've had issues with the dark haired Andra guy too.

One street meet (just after WSID introduced the whole V8 only lane), I was given the wrong lane number. I went and borrowed the marker from the red-headed bloke and changed the number.

Mr dark-headed Andra guy saw me do this and was old me to change it (which I didn't). The rest of the night, he was standing and the entry to the staging lanes and tried to flag me down everytome I passed him.

Good thing he was too lazy to walk to the front of the staging lanes to tell me off some more...

Kenny...I say you should post the video :P

I just sent it to Jason O'Halloran, Geoff Crisp and Greg Shultz instead.

...and Roy....  If you ever get a chance to drive a RWD car capable of 9.50's, please please PLEASE jump at the opportunity.  Oh, and make sure we're all there to *cough* cheer you on!  :(

Been there done that, i use to have a 9.50sec Tamiya BigWig...:P

2rismo, how many passes have you done now with the gas and the std turbo...also what size gas kit are you using?

Hey 2rismo very flash, tyres are good so should do better.

How did Paul end up? I only saw one run he did up against girl in a pink WRX and she was slower but closer to her braket time thing. That is rude and must be frustrating. Sort of glad the slot car did not make it.

What's so hard with this ten second thing anyway 4WD. You should do it dragging an anchor with those tyres and 4WD and power you have.

What was your best time yesterday.

hahaha johnny talking it up again!

I was trying so hard to get the sms number for the anouncers. we had planned a message:

'John from UAS just wants everyone to know that he thinks skylines are the best'

next time.

more frustrating is the fact that the throttle cable came out of the bracket on the plenum not even halfway down the strip (that was the run you saw). I was on the money too, as the 330' time was 4.61 which puts me around the 10.8 mark!

Best time was a 11.200 with no 4th gear! it just wouldn't go in...9.2 to the 1000' mark another 10 sec pass goes begging

Yep I thought you got of the loud peddle on that run.

mmmgtir and zed's with GTR bits.

Yep the loud pedal went to the floor and the car was only idling. Hope you can get the slot car racing soon....would love a bit of heads-up action. Racing is only exciting when you are qualifying, in the finals all you are doing is trying to work out the maths of DYO.

1/ Better fuel - Optimax is the most useless shit in my car. Car's running through the fuel test were reporting 96.x octane!!

2/ That will let me put the extra timing back into my car that I took out to compensate for the shitty fuel.

3/ That's about it - Maybe not have 3/4 of a tank of fuel next time :)

Hi, Stace here......just wanted to say thanks to all the people who helped with Twoogle. Phatpat, Matt, Morgs, Buster, Chris. Once again Twoogle had many friends.

Did anyone hear my funny sms called out........I really think I deserved a prize. My question was "How long did it take John Barehams to grow his mullet?" hehehehe.

I cant wait till the track day. Maybe it will be me that can get that 10 after all. Come on Pauly whats taking you so long?? You know as well as I that Twoogle likes me better. :wassup:

BTW..... spx..Robert....the pics are great of the two reds.

Paul, Adrian and Robert all got PB's , so well done .

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
