Not much. The door molds are done. Should be able to get the rest of the body made in the next few weeks. Did the winton sprint yesterday. Video uploaded for the guy in the evo so he can see his car driving on the track. And one of me trying to have a run against ben in his white na6. But that elfin was in the way for the session. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyfRfP9BUsk

God I hated that guy in the Elfin.... So, so slow in the corners and under brakes, so fast on the straight. Pity the battery ran out where it did. But more of a pity that we didn't have the chance to have a proper run with each other due to other factors...

Wow, the fellow in the elfin really needs a driving lesson!

The worst kind of track user in my opinion. Driving under the firm belief that being quick on the straights means that they are the faster car.

Is that guy a regular? Next time get the clerk of the course to have a word...he might just be a complete novice with no idea of track craft.

The problem with the camera is you waste so much time recording nothing in the pits as i have to turn it on before i hop in as i cannot reach sitting down. So there is about 10 - 15 min of wasted vid on every session.
There would have been some good footage later in the day too.
The guy in the elfin was not as bad as a guy in a white sh#tbox alfa. He had several cars behind him and always took the inside line to the boobs so no one could pass. What a wa#ker.

Wtf, since when could we swear on this forum, I thought it was all farking censored... If this came up as flower then I have no idea how you got away with it lol

The word "F*ck" is censored, but "farking" is not. In fact, it's pretty much just "f*ck" and "g*vernment" as far as I can tell. :lol:

ƒü¢k (f*ck)
farking
flocked (f*ucked)

It would be so easy to "accidently" run out of talent or brakes and give a touch going into the corner. But i couldn't be that much of a c#nt to damage someones pride and joy.

And if anyone is intersted i am now selling the yellow NA6 - just found a cheap NB8B and can't keep both. I will post a for sale thread soon.

And another vid in the yellow car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5i7hgN5vak
