Green NB on Bolwarra Ave, probably trying to shortcut Ryde Rd :)

Beeped the horn at me, not sure if it was a 'hello' or a 'get the hell out of my way'

4 red NA's, 2 NB's, 3 NC's on a drive through Sydney's Northern Beaches today.

Weirdest was the evo gold NB carrying a boat on top of it! :?::!:

Now that my car is dropped 12" hub to fender (without me in it), I can relate and see why.

Multiple speed bumps positioned too close to each other and the awkward angle dip when exiting the car park. :evil:

I was extra careful because the unmarked bump/raised point in the towers car park caused some frame rail banging earlier...

Lol I know every one of those 'challenges' too well!

Heads up: with a car that low you may want to avoid the Quakers Hill area including the Parkway and M7 - been defected for being too low (and only that) three times by officers from that LAC - twice by the same officer (and he totally reamed me with a $101 fine and major inspection defect the last time too).

Pretty sure he is intent on making my life a misery now if he ever sees me again with clearance any less than 100mm.

Thanks for the heads up, that is just up the road from me and a place I frequently pass. They usually set up RBT's just over the bridge, luckily, I haven't been pulled over as yet, although I have passed a few of the LAC while driving around.

Measuring to my pinch welds, I am 110mm, which is legal (I made sure I was above min spec). If I am in such a situation, hopefully by stating that I can get off...*fingers crossed*

Well if you can get two or three fingers in the wheelgap they'll probably leave you well enough alone.

I get pulled over for RBTs all the time but Quakers Hill (and the RBT they set up on Sunnyholt Rd) were the only ones to pick on my height (which is fair enough; my clearance at the time was a wildly illegal 60mm).

So umm... don't stick out like a sore thumb like I did!

Spotted several MX-5's yesterday evening. The highlight being a very clean silver SP on Rocky Point Rd, Sans Souci. Bear2230, was that you?
