Always remember that I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me. An alcoholic is someone you don't like who drinks as much as you do. Don't drink and drive, you might hit a bump and spill your drink. You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on. Stay busy, get plenty of exercise, and don't drink too much. Then again, don't drink too little. Time is never wasted when you're wasted all the time. One reason I don't drink is that I want to know when I am having a good time. A meal without wine is like a day without sunshine, except that on a day without sunshine you can still get drunk. I stopped drinking, but only when I sleep. This is one of the disadvantages of wine: it makes a man mistake words for thought. Cigarettes and coffee: an alcoholic's best friend !!!! When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they always worked for me. The consumption of alcohol may cause pregnancy. A man who exposes himself when he is intoxicated, has not the art of getting drunk. A bartender is just a pharmacist with a limited inventory. I drink to forget I drink. Alcohol is necessary for a man so that he can have a good opinion of himself, undisturbed be the facts. Once, during Prohibition, I was forced to live for days on nothing but food and water. The whole world is about three drinks behind. I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Do we just rock up a bit before 2 30 or do the drivers need to get there a bit earlier?

Sorry Scotty, but I won't be attending at all. Didn't get work off, so by the time I finish work, fox my car, bleed it all up and get my camera, you'll all be well and truly finished :( Next time I'll try to be there though.

Well that was good fun, wasn't expecting to get out there so I hadn't prepared anything, had my amp install flopping around in the boot and I was running my street tyres which I wasn't too keen to shred so I took it a bit easy.

Car now has problems though, so not sure what is going on. Ignition is a bit dicky, acted like the car had a flat battery by not even turning over, then turned over but struggled a bit, then started. Not sure what the story is there...

Also I think I have blown a hose somewhere, turbo was fluttering like crazy on the way home and the car was back firing every time I hit boost. Other than that it drove ok though, didn't register any boost spikes... Have checked bov and everything is all good, so not sure what I've done :confused:

Nice shots James. Everyone parked up with their bonnets off was awesome.

What a GREAT DAY!!! Thanks Scott for organising, really had some fun out there and definitely felt my lines improving out there on the track.

Yes it was a wicked day today. Good on ya Reaps for organizing it. We must do it again!!!!

I had a ball out on that track. I really started to get to know what the car was doing and what lines were best to take. The only thing that pissed me off was that it only went for 2 hours or so. I was only just starting to get into it and then he says, "Thats it guys" Farkn Spewwn...

I found that my car stayed cooler being on the track. As soon as i did a couple of skid pans, she was in the hot. I guess from not enough air flow, plus me ringing its neck out wouldn't help. But hey, WGAF.

"Brakes" i must upgrade my brakes. Going on that track made me realize just how bad stock brakes are when there hot. At one point i had no brakes i had pushed it that hard. Very scary having no brakes. This is a must do.
