This is what mine looked like before the replaint. As you can see the clear was lifting:

Thanks Chris - will do, and will drop it back in again on the way back.

John. Yes, will use the AIM Tony brings thanks. Or we could run them in parallel as a check. Imagine if they were 0.5s out between each other

Tony can pick mine up if he wants. I have the good mount as well.

Also please check fluids before running and see if you can work out how many flat spotted tyres we have. New ones are $130 fitted so I will only buy enough to cover flat spotted ones, in case we use her on the open road or one blows.

Nik probably saw your rental, thought you were from Flaxmere, and gave you a wide berth. You should have taken bogan black BB!

I liked the rent a dent in the end. It reminded me of the C3 where you had to plan your overtaking moves as everyone else had more power than you.

Macca - I'm keen on your private track day.

Are you bringing the 993 out of retirement or buying a race car now Jenni has a house?

No, the auction closed with no sale. I need to be patient. Something will come along with the right engine and price, eventually.

I didnt know where any of the events were. I did check out the cars at the Crown Hotel though. Didnt see any I knew. It looked like only around 25% of the cars there were manual.

Have seen it before. Proportions are just wrong IMO; rear bumper doesn't look right (too small?) but could be exaggerated by the seemingly oversized wheels and tyres. That second photo highlights what I see, again could be exaggerated by the lens they've used.

Another video completed. Chris M, Neil and Doug's exploits at HD are now part of RSG video history. Sped up, slow mo, different angles and mood music (danger zone, slip sliding away and Drive). 6 1/2 minutes of 'code brown' material. Let's hope this is the last of it!
