Fair, No problem

I'm working Support for the week and I only off at 6 pm from work can I convoy with somone?

Dislex can we meet on the N14 somewhere, I really don't know the way people.?
I'll also bring a helmet; and camera. Of course things can still go horribly wrong. It hailed today ffs.

Is this then the first ever officially approved, club sanctioned & really serious challenge? The drag team are lagging behind the activity of the sx club drift team..I think it will go better once we get one or two done.

Be brave, and remember there can only be 1! [well per dice anyway]

:P :P :P :P :P :P :P :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Well we went anyway ;) Dislex666 was looking stronger than usual, until something gave way during a moerse mighty launch; presumably the clutch, ending his participation :cry:

I then did two solo runs, horrible, horrible times, but then again it was my first real run, xmas lights 'n all ;) between the helmet and having to wear a safety belt i had an operator induced gearing failure :oops: I'm going to practice counting from 1 to 5 so I don't forget the sequence: tonight i had it as 1st, 4th, 2nd, 3rd, 4th..still it was the best 2x15's of my whole boosting experience so far!

I didn't quite catch my exact et's but they were in the 15's. the second one was a bit better, maybe lower 15's..and i can remember the speed being about 160, so *in theory* i should be heading for 14's soon and with a bit of s&m training with calibrator who knows...

Next week same arrangement, come on people, there aren't many guys that go on thursday nights so you can basically have run after run :)

Phinx it's easy to get there from PTA, but if you want to arrive in convoy we can meet at the rustenburg stop street on the N14.

Cool qewrty, that is a start, I think it will take me at least a month before I can drive hard with my car, I'll hopefully get it back next week, then run in the motor and then back to the dyno, then I will join at tarlton.

Only problem is the helmet thing, I hate to put that thing on and drive with it.....my sences are totally fooked.....

Qwerty I cant believe you drive all the time without a seat belt :shock:

It appears as if Dislex's gearbos has given up. Luckily I was there with a Nissan that makes more torque than his car so he had a tow back :)
