[QLD] Activities this weekend

[leebutts]

Is anyone free for some outings this weekend? (late notice I know!)

1. The Brisbane motor show starts today - I was thinking about heading in on Saturday afternoon

2. The Holden Sporting Car Club is having a motorkhana at Willowbank on Sunday starting from 8am. You can join the club on the day or just pay for a day membership (~ $50 including entry to the event). I have never been in one before so will be highly crap but you have to start somewhere . You don't need a helmet but they do recommend getting a "rally extension" on your CTP (ring your CTP insurer).

So who's keen?

cheers

Lee

I'll be busy installing 2 sets of coilovers.. and i might be selling my old oem sets..

 

[leebutts]

What? Where did you get coilovers from!!

 

[Peter_D]

No one wants to try and squeeze into your midget racer.

Sorry we're busy this weekend. It's the daughters birthday and Mel is shouting me a meal and a movie for my birthday.

 

[Hipsi]

Sounds good Pete, would she mind shouting us all for your birthday?

 

[Peter_D]

You don't want to hear her shout.

Got to be careful what I say Mel's a member of this forum also.

[naughtika]

Lee, hope you enjoy your weekend.. sorry mate, got plans already.. coilover's been due for about 5 weeks now..

Kevin, damn dude.. you should've chosen the chararcter from the "texas chainsaw massacre" would've suited you better..

 

[leebutts]

That's alright Christian, I'll rock out at the motorkhana on my own

 

[naughtika]

seems like my coilover install is on hold again.. my dad butted in and asked me to install his "new" car audio.. so i did.. and it took me about 9 hours to install.. thought it was that quick since his car's got alot of space.. but no.. it took freaking forever!!! but yah.. i'm happy with the install but the car needs sound deadening..

I really need to check out what is happening more regularly.

Lee how did you go?

 

[Rasi]

Christian, Make sure you do a tutorial of the coil over replacement. I know they are not overly hard to replace, but it would be good to see some photos.

Are you guys all from Brisbane? I just moved from Bris to Sydney last year for work.

 

[Rasi]

Why did you move? It lovely and rainy up here at the moment.

I had a great time at the motorkhana - up until I broke my power steering! I'll start a thread about my adventure soon

Dam, how did you brake your car Lee?
Yep very rainy at the moment.
I did a course in bris, needed to finish my apprenticeship and got offered a job in Sydney with moving costs paid for so took the job. I hope to drive my VR4 up to Bris for a weekend or something one day, end of the year or who knows sooner.
