rain will be here soon so i guess there cant be too many left.
Was at the holden/ford day on Sunday, i think they said 4-5 more sessions!
On the note of fast Gtr's: a couple of wednesdays ago there was one that ran 12.5 but he braked from about 2/3 of the track( to not go past his dial in)
Gee i wished he just went for it, would have been a 10 sec pass i think! the excelleration in the first 3 gears was unbelievable!

Saw a mate i haven't seen for about 10 years or more! just bought a vl berlina with calais dash! grey colour! t66, nizpro, keas and trans!
ran 12.5 but wheel span of the line, best was 11.5 first run!

well slightly quicker this time but nothing to write home about. only subi there tonite!
i stuffed the launches this time round, but promising signs for the new turbo.
some sick cars down there tonite. was mostly running against evos. saw someone crack a 10, then a 9! couldnt see what it was tho. met a few characters too. one guy offered me a full 2 pak respray for 2 grand. another older guy who has 5 wrxs and a 348 gtb ferrari which he brings down sometimes.
