Bugger about the fun day being cancelled, but I appreciate the reason why and it'll be good to have some fun on the full track later in the year.... A few of us are heading down in Early march to gatecrash a mitsubishi NZ meeting there... keep those Evos honest

[kylie]

Any of you guys up for the 9th April at Puke?

[Esprit]

Surely am

Kelly has even been angelic enough to reschedule our holiday to Australia to make room for this.... me and the silver bullet will be there

[Kiwi XTR2]

I might come for a look. Should have all the charred wiring and melted lights fixed by then . . . but the Westie ain't no Lotus

Don't let that stop you..... if you want to pay your club membership fee and sign up, there's nothing to say you can't bring the Westie to all events....... besides, out of all cars on the market today, there's few that typify Colin Chapman's famous original virtues better than an XTR²!

Will have to give that serious consideration . . . Off to download a membership application form for a look-see

Come on don't be a poof join up..!!! Just think how nice it would be to kick everyones butt on the track. The sevens boys would be not to mention everyone else.

[Kiwi XTR2]

Yeah but then people would get to see just how much of a crap driver I am . . .

There are only so many times you can do a flat-spin through the Esses on your out-lap and still show your face in the pits

[kylie]

Ohhh rot!! the more you get out there the better you will get. Its ok to have a spin or two. Everyone does it Anyway these days are about having fun. I wonder if old Lambo man will be back again.

Now then !!!

Chasing a Lambo might de-wimp-ify me

BTW, If I can finish all my work by Friday I'll be supporting a factory race-prepared Zagato at Pukie next weekend

Zagato as in Aston Zagato?.... mid-eighties one?

[Kiwi XTR2]

Yep. The BIG GREEN . . .

[Esprit]

Aah ok, that one was at the last CLNZ puke sprints, have photos of it somewhere.... I LOVE the chunky '80s Zagato shape..... it's not really aged that well, but it's distinctive as hell and still quite attractive

So really it's like Joanna Lumley

Didn't finish work, in fact still at it . . . mostly.

F5000's were doing 54.6's

Zagato was only doing 1:10's. Bit of a heavy bird at over 1700kg. More time on the track and better rubber will see that come down.

[Photochromatic]

I will be there - signed up and I already have my number for the day

[Esprit]

Damn, that's quick... I need to get my entry away... will post it today.

What about Hansens mid 55's,and they reckon they've got another second in her.

And you did'nt even come down to say hello to us in the yellow TVR while you were out there,tut,tut.

Off to Manfield now.

George, call me re your engine before I use it as a boat mooring..

[kylie]

Any of you guys had a crack at the regularity trials before? I thinking they are running two groups at Puke > 1:18 class and > 1:28 Cripes having to contain yourself from planting the pedal You could almost read a book in one hand esp in the 1:28 class!! But would good to try my luck at consistency for a change rather than seeing how close I can get to having an OFF . I think all thats required is a motorsport licience, will find out.
