VIC Drag Day, Heathcote Raceway, 28/05/05 (Short version)

I think you'll find Salzzx

is actually a Ballaratian? Ballaratite? Ballaratish? Well you get the idea anyway - I went to Ballarat to buy her driver's seat :thumbsup:. And I know you weren't going to be racing, but what's your excuse for last Saturday?

 

Winners are grinners.......>>

The weather might have held a few back, but those of us who went had a ball. The weather held off in the country as it always does (or maybe Mikey and his magic shoes had something to do with it), and while it was cold it wasn't wet. It was great to see a lot of new people competeing and not just standing and watching, and even better to see all the smiling faces after they realised that a few runs on the strip didn't destroy their cars. It was a hell of a turn-around for Doug who went from "Peter, will you drive my car?" to...."I owned everyone on the day!!!" Good on ya Doug, I'll have to give Jen some schooling so she doesn't let you off so easily in the future.

Now the drags are over, lets look forward to the tech/cruise day, and then in August a few of us are going Hill Climbing. Anyone else up for it??? :thumbsup:

Re: Salzzx is another Bendigonite (I just made that up)

really i didn't know that...lol...im hopeless

 

You're such a Carrum Downian Mikey. :thumbsup:

 

Wish I'd known - DSCM is working in Ballarat

at the moment. He could have saved you the trip.

 

Oh yeah

my brain read it as "far-away-place-that-starts-with-B" and matched them up

I had to work as I'm taking time off for all the other Z related stuff in the next few weeks since I had nothing to drag in anyway

Subliminal Castrol product placement.....

 

Fuchs you!!!!!

Part of Dougs prize as well as the dust collector was a 5 (or 6?) litre bottle of Fuchs full synthetic oil. Fuchs is a supporter of NDSOC and was a sponsor on the day.

Not Castrol!!!!!!

 

bendigonians

thanks heaps one of my customers also took his 300 (hkspwr) but burnt out the clutch on his first launch so ill get to do some work on that one soon. next time i run i will make it in to the twelves hopefully as i enjoyed thrashin my z more than my jumbuck ill spend some time playin with it

 

And out in the open like that it wasn't too subliminal

More like a paid product placement, as in the movies.
Anyone used the Fuchs oil before? Is it any good?
