Hyena, come down to Wakefield on an open day... same fun without the walls icon_smile.gif

Yeah I've been meaning to get back to wakefield icon_smile.gif
I was taking it pretty easy there with all the walls and not holding it out too much where there was a chance of losing it and clipping a wall. I don't know how I spun out so quick in that one spot, I was taking it much the same every time but as per the video it suddenly flicked into a 180. Meh, no harm, it was my mate that copped the face full of dirt icon_lol.gif
I'll get down to wakefield soon, I still haven't been for that track day with Leo Gaegan yet either!

I guess there were a few stock looking cars there, but mainly later model ones.

and tassie police wonder why people do stupid things on the road here. that's cause we got nowhere to go! we can go to baskerville if we wanna put up with skyline s**t all day, and it's not worth the hassle! the only was they go round is by pushing else off!

more powercruise everywhere i say!

icon_lol.gif Funny.

You're right though. NO-ONE wants to put up with Skyline s**t!!! icon_lol.gif

Me and the old man have talked about this and if someone had the funds to set up:

* A dyno
* Quarter mile strip
* Racing circuit

On the north coast, Devonport or Launny, they would make a killing.

If we had the cash, that would be our business plan icon_smile.gif

I don't think you're in my vid pinky. Dunno about the purple XD either, maybe a glimpse cruising around on the track ? Unfortunately you only get to cruise along side a small selection of cars at a time due to the way you're released out on to the track and the line ups etc.

hehe I don't really have much more video - just more of the same really. I thought it'd get a bit boring watching the same thing over and over. That's the majority of it that isn't just me driving around and starting and stopping in traffic. There's a DVD being made of the whole event, it should be out soon.


If you want pics look in the power cruise website and also badger photography and cackling pipes. They have heaps of photos from the day

Here's a random example of one of the more tasteful bodykits that were floating around on teh day

Jeez, I just noticed the, what, FOURTEEN INCH steelies on the back, with the, what, 17 inchers up front.

Factor in that it's a VN (narrow VL front track, snap oversteer handling characteristics) and that thing would be a total WHORE to drive on the track....

LOOKS like a whore. Would DRIVE like a whore. If it's a V6, would SOUND like a whore. s**t, the thing probable SMELLS like a whore icon_lol.gif

WHOREMOBILE!!!
