When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Blacky , If you have to get to Whiteman Park then throw me the keys after you are done so I can finish the day off for Paul . I will see to it that he has the ute home by 8pm . I have a mate with a trailer so we can afford to find it's weak spots , not sure if Paul can afford those weak spots though .
I would rather work on a Morris 1100 than use a computer !!!!!!

I'd love to give my FC a run just to see if it is quicker than the standard Commodore time but never done it before on a track wouldn't want to mess it up and look like a dick. :ughh:

Piece of piss Neil , the track is nice and sticky - all you need to do is get the revs while holding it on the brake then let off the brake on the last yellow 8) it's a sweet sensation :ebiggrin:

There's only one way to learn, keep in mind most people there aren't professionals.
Back in the day I took mine down the track with the grey motor. I think it was a 24 second pass - everyone was asleep before I reached the end :lol:

I hear that you and Blacky may have a "slightly used", low roof ute for sale. Leave it on the trailer and I'll give it a good home in NSW :ebiggrin: :lol: .
