I have the lamest excuse ever.... I think I'll just be sitting at home alone, with a working car, because I went out and played basketball with some mates for a couple of hours last night without having the right sports shoes and ended up with massive blisters on the balls of my feet and toes and it hurts to walk / drive :P

Great night guys.
Passed tow truck about to pull out a Golf GTi-R that took the term "tree hugger" too much to heart.
Managed to pick up a stray Alfa Romeo Mito tagger-a-longer.
slug dub almost had a close encounter of the turd kind with an Evo driver coming the opposite way who thought that straddling the centre line is the place to be.

Can confirm 100% there are no 80 signs at all. Pretty annoying now as 70 is quite pedestrian.

Andrew, from the description of the night you wonder why the road is now 70???

Unfortunately Idiocracy becomes closer to a documentary every day.

I hear modified shitters go up the hill, 30 minutes later I hear sirens heading up the hill. I here very expensive flat plane crank euro exotics head up the hill, I here them come down again, no sirens, says something about the owners i think.....

It's a pretty safe bet that if they were running into trees and couldn't keep on their own side of the road, ignoring a 70kmh speed limit isn't any better than ignoring an 80kmh limit, don't you think?

EVO was in middle of the road on a moderate lefty curve for it, righty for us, and appeared not to be speeding (not by much if it was). Simply a sh!t driver.

Golf came off where the road had very mild bends, relatively straight, and after a flat crest so he (2 guys no older than 25) either had a tyre blow or other failure, and/or panic swerved to avoid wildlife, and/or significantly speeding.

Besides putting speed humps, there's nothing that will stop idiots speeding.
Even after we finished when we were on a very narrow section down in The Gap (due to 1/4 of the road cut away) amongst houses and doing the signed 40 in an obvious construction zone with copious debris on the road, some sh!t heel in a 3 series BMW came blasting past doing well over 70.
