Apparently even though I was thinking of her safety and comfort and stuff I have still done a bad thing by purchasing a V8 Powered AWD vehicle for her to drive to work.
Silly me for thinking about her for once, next time I will think only about myself...
Ok so maybe I was thinking more about me than her when I bought it...

Are we having shopping trolley racing down the quater?...Bring a shopping trolley if ya have to ...

That could be funny...

Maybe a relay... 1/4 mile is a long way to push a shopping trolley.

There is no way in hell that she would even consider trying to drive the Hatch. She aint even that keen on being a passenger in it.ss Hatch: Dude... bring her with you mate! You can BOTH race the same car! And then she'll be HOOKED
As for the new car, its that slow its not funny.

Don't worry, it can't be that slow, I took my subaru brumby down the 1/4 mile at the last day and almost did 20 secs flat, that was me TRYING to give it a flogging!As for the new car, its that slow its not funny.

just bring something and have fun!

Doesnt make much sense to me.
Gotta see how things go now we have made the purchase. Maybe we will bring both so I have some way of towing the hatch back should I get enthused enough to break it yet again.

Looking forward to this, so are we going it alone again? (preferred) or are we having a multi make/multi club day?
The last one was great, not too many cars allowed everyone a few runs....I reckon too many cars = not enough time.
Thoughts?

I think it should be go it alone. We have enough Torana forum members to be able to do this. Like you said, to many cars, not enough runs.so are we going it alone again? (preferred) or are we having a multi make/multi club day?

I cant wait guys! im going to get my arse into gear now and put the 9 inch in and also sought out L34 pump to fix the fuel probs! If i still have time and money i might get an exhaust shop to flange up my exhaust system so i can run LOUD!!!

I would suggest though that you invite your mates with similar interests to us as it's a great day to get out there and have some fun!
Wraith: Maaaate... I'm glad that Rach had a go in the back yard.. Just wait till she does it on the tarmac!! And the BEST thing is that at Heathcote, if you both have helmets ( available to hire), you can BOTH go down the strip together in the same car!! Just the thing to let you teach her how to do it! FROM THE PASSENGER SEAT! HAHAHAHA!! That's what i did with simmo in the ford... She watched me for one pass.. then they keys were hers! I only went for one run with her ( or was it two? I cant recall) to help her out then she was beating my times AND reaction times!!
We NEED 40 cars guys! We've got a heap commited, but we need 40 cars to make the day a success or we'll be charged extra to race! (Heathcote have to cover their costs.) Invite your mates, If you know good people with other makes of cars they're welcome! Just remeber it's a FUN, Hassle free, relaxed day!
Cheers!

By the way, i think we need a few/lot more cars than last time, during the day their lul's in the proceedings where nobody was running.
If this could be avoided it would be a great event.

Confirmation as soon as possible is apprecated because it allows us to plan for the day, but we will need to lock it in at least a couple of weeks before the event!

But i took the car for a drive to and she is driving like CRAP! i need to give it a good tune, and i might take the drop tank out as well, to help fix the fuel surge issue. I also found that Rare Spares sell reco L34 fuel pumps for about $90, so i might pick one of them up and put it in!
I have to do a low 14sec pass before i can even consider selling the orange car!!!!
