yeah i reckon it got boring.......the course didnt do him any justice. i went with VLGMH, and we sat on the hill, so you could see everything, but it was very basic.

Yeah ditto about same old same old after the 10 times. It was good watching the matt black ute. He was drifting that thing better than the 370z or whatever it was. Monster chicks mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Was pretty average, to be expected though i guess considering it was supposed to be a corporate event. Thought he might have at least mixed it up a little through the setup instead of following the same lines all day. Best part was when he put it into the wall! Left about 3ish i think - overall 6/10 (would only be about a 4 without that trophy truck that kept going hack out in the middle!).

I missed him putting it into the wall as I wondered down to the pits where he was stopping to pick people up (wanted to score a tyre like the dudes carrying them around lol) I just saw him come back and the wheel looking as though it was about to smash the guard off.

Can't remember what time it was but he was coming out of that little boxed in section that had the one 44 in it (where he was cutting a loop around it) and when he gassed it she drifted out a bit wide and the rear quarter mashed the wall. That's why he was parked up the end of the track for ages with everyone out looking at the car - if you noticed that, well that's why! Haha man there was a fair few people carrying those tyres around. Probably even better than KB hitting the wall was the kid that had his free stuff (sunnies, hat and tee) taken back off him by the MC and handed out to other people coz he was sooking about something, LOL. Then some dudes sitting behind us started paying out on him and chanting stuff to him so he went and got security and had a sook to them about it! haha.

Haha yeah saw her as well! It's stupid desperation though....i mean it's only KB and he's not exactly wrc champion or anything so you've just got some bloke to sign your shirt (which you're now probably not gonna wear again) who spends his spare time doing driving demonstrations. Woooo...lol.

When he hit the wall as he got up where he was picking people up, the wheel almost came off. I though he may have broken a suspension arm or something. But 5 mins later it was going again. I had a great spot front row near the 3 barrels but when every c0ck started standing on the fence the pr1cks I went and stood up the back. I was near the bra chick. The MC was good and made the day more enjoyable. I saw the matt ute on a towtruck this arvo in Bayswater.
