Here are some of the best I got - I had been trying to get some good panning shots of many of the participants in motion, but most are not really post worthy.

I really meant to bring the vid of that cruise etc to that thursty thirs at R/side that time, but I forgot.

Yeah I would really like to see this

Let's keep the cars up the rightway this year ay...?

Same number as the "b" box you have, except it's a "c"

See here for info: http://club-s12.org/v3/index.php?topic=12333.0

Yup. 12v bilge fan, available ex trademe or from marine places. Place inline with existing ducting to screen adapted to a feed from the engine bay or similar and you're away. Popular choice with race car guys.

Can get 12v hairdryers for cheaper than the bilge fans it seems. Any reason to use one over another?

Hairdryers sound fuckin awful

Depends on the talent

Same petrol station both times you filled up?

Holy fuck only a month out from 5 years between posts lol

I was gonna say - more info but it's not like it's gonna look like it did last night.

8v Fiat Twin Cam on IDF's

Hey it's a fart OUT of a tin.... lol

Seriously I agree that a Fiat Twin Cam makes a nice noise

My vote goes to the Ferrari 312 as heard in the Shell V-Power/Ferrari ad (In a car)

My absolute #1 pick though is almost certainly a Rolls Royce or Packard Merlin with supercharger whining

A bit pointless i guess

Have you not watched the youtube vid of skids ?

Also, does a quarter in 14.5 seconds @ 168kmh!

Still, it really needs to cut grass

At full load a 90A alternator is about equivalent to a 2hp electric motor working against your engine

Yeah I quite like it without the stupid american accents - the japanese version is so much better but I don't rate reading subtitles too highly either. Cheers for the link

I think my original idea that an S12 would be an investment is fail - but my thinking is that any rear wheel drive manual car from the last decade or two will become sought after, along with anything that people dooort around in at present when they hit middle age and realise what they have been missing all those years...

you can hire a slide hammer for fuck all from butler auto mart on stanmore road

whole car painted in spraycan primer+guide coat+underage drunk bishes in your car are not the OS scene i care to be a part of

primer patches however are like badges of honour

pussy

The DX wagon I followed over the Summit Rd last cruise had biscuits on the back and had some serious crabbing action going on as it drove down the road - scary shit

I understand that it is possible to buy single use bottles of shield gas?

http://www.ezitools.co.nz/category/2/welding/ for example - I'm sure prices could be sharper if you look around

Motunau beach? A spirited drive along SH1 is all good when you get out a bit

Chris (CUL8R) is looking for a derby car I think for the upcoming stunt show thing on feb 14 so flick him a PM

More importantly: whichever gap you settle on, ensure you use a good shroud between them

Yeah I'm pretty sure I'd be happy with 1 good one instead of 40 in need of work, so that I could smoke my tires with a 70's porn star mo and have blondes swoon etc

I have a broken camera and lens combo that's not too happy at the mo. Thanks all for the good day
