Will there be any time to head to the Coweramup brewery while we are down Nik? It would be a shame to come all that way and not at least stop in for one or 2.

If it is coming out of the bonnet scoop than it could be oil dripping from something onto the dumps or block and heating up, unlikely to be the turbo seals, that would dump from the exhaust.

Us TT-masters should be able to fix it with duct-tape and cable ties at MDSC. :D

Yeah windies don't actually bother me that much. That's true.

I don't know man. I've had not ONE issue since I bought the OBK. Not ONE. All I can remember of turbo ownership was problem after problem, and knowing which petty station was the cheapest each day.

Definitely. I was thinking of driving straight there after rally school.

MY BIGGEST concern, is people being too hyped up straight after rally school though...

I think everyone at MDSC is usually pretty damn well behaved though. Apart from whipping nuts on private property, noone makes a tool out of themselves.

@Oil: I was thinking probably rocker cover area.

Hahaha that shit it real.

After my rally day I felt like drifting EVERYWHERE. :D




Luckily I bought GT5. I do my skids on there and keep it off the road.

Could well be, get under the car with a light and check the area out.. if there is too much oil about give it a good degrease down and take it for a bit of a drive and keep an eye on it over a few days, you will soon see if it is leaking.

I would be keen to go there straight after, I won't be driving so drinking is on the cards.

I'm sort of being a ****, because she at this moment is in love with the car, but also hates it because she cannot drive it (I am being helpful - lessons every day after work, but I'm no fuckin' instructor - I SUCK at teaching) yesterday she stalled on the main street and called her bloke to come and get her because people were abusing her and shit.

People are just fuckheads though. Seriously. It's a ******* tourist town, if you haven't learned to be patient on the roads by now - you're probably a ******* tourist.

So long story short, she's going to want to get rid of it.

I think you'd agree that learning to drive on a TT scoob probably isn't a great idea.

She made me jelly with the C4, now THIS!

Chick has some serious taste in cars.

Also, just so you guys are fully aware ahead of time, we will not be taking personal cars onto the rally track. Don't get your hopes up for that.

Dammit.

No point in bringing the Veyron eater in carry-on luggage then...

@Lukosh: No shit. Are you serious right now people? You're going to yell abuse and flip birds because some young chick stalled it and ****** up your day for 8 seconds. People just need to relax, let other people live, everyone has done something stupid. My lord, yesterday I short changed someone by 10 bucks - didn't realise, and they changed from chatty to nothing in about two seconds, when I said "See you next time, thanks for stopping by" they looked at me and shook their head and walked out.

I was like.

WHAT?

Then I was walking back to my office and realised. Damn! Sprinted out to the carpark and gave them a blue one back - apologised 'n shit, honest mistake.

"We were wondering if you were going to own up to that"























Honestly? Did you see me RUN. I only RUN if I'm being chased. Felt like 'why bother' after that.

If she sells it buy it.


Yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at right now. I would actually prefer for her to get more confidence (she reverse parked with me yesterday before she left - she can do it) and go out and chop all those faggots that teased her (happened two days in a row, by the way).

Definitely drinking at Cowie at some point over the weekend. Porter! Om nom nom. Plus it's always fun to spill a pint on Richo!

Yes knackered seals would show up in exhaust wouldn they. *facepalm*

I learnt to drive manual in a series 3 RX7 with a peripheral ported 13b and a twitchy clutch. Recirculating ball type steering with no power assist. 3 point turns on a hill were an exercise in futility for a good few weeks.

Sig worthy.
