Just got in, will get changed and head out, might be a tough later than 7pm though, If I miss you, I'll head straight to BotH.

Good to meet some new faces. Hope you guys come again. :D

I have two tips for the general public. Do not stray from the chocolate balls at Brenners. Nothing on their menu is a worthy substitute. And, do not follow Rob through McCarrs Creek Rd. Damn kid drives too fast.

Damn right on that one George... thank goodness you guys missed the Roo that got hit by the opposing traffic moments later as well :!:

P.S. Sliq - how's the nose? Need someone to tuck you into bed tonight? :lol: :lol: :lol: (I'll give you 9/10 for originality though)

Had to give the new brakes, tyres and seat a test session...

Overall verdict, Marangoni's have more flex in the sidewalls than Sumitomos, car seemed like it was floating at times, and EBC Kevlar Brake Pads fade a little too quickly for my liking (dislike), will definately upgrade to hawk next time, although its probably time for a change of brake fluids too, so this might be the cause... The sparco on the other hand is one of the best investments I've made.

Don't follow Cass either, he has a tendancy to drop a wheel or two off the road at times :oops:

Thanks for last night everyone, was definitely worth it - even just for that awesome chocolate chai teapot thing and especially after the free plate of chocolate and strawberries! :D

Good seeing all of you, hopefully next time I'll get around to meeting those I didn't get to meet last night :)

Don't worry Boxer, we made it eventually - luckily I let Rad drive because I had no idea how to get there! If we get lost again next time, I'll make sure we have some wasabi Kit-Kats handy for sustenance haha
