I've never timed my 0-100 time. Maybe that's where you went wrong!

@Nik, was quiet without you yesterday!


@Josh, steak was good, but I 'ed up the cooking. Can't work out the new BBQ. Ended up being medium. Would have been nice if cooked well!

Trade?

Driving a slow car is not doing something wrong.

It should be a little faster shouldnt it?

How do you launch these properly? im not dropping the clutch like a nissan driver but i dont know if im letting it on hard enough, how high should i rev for the launch? im doing about 2.5-3k

Like to know your opinion on my topside beef experiment!

I'm not having a conversation about 'launching' your car.

No, it is an N/A Subie man, not exactly an athletic engine LOL.. what would you expect it to do?

Gen2 Liberty RX does 0-100km/h in about 10-11 seconds.

I was going to reply to that.

Topside is not a steak meat, it is the traditional roasting meat, and outside of that it holds together really nicely for slow cooking - curries/casseroles and the like - things you'd cook for a few hours.

If you're wanting to have it as a steak - hot, HOT pan. Flash fry and let it sit for a while before eating. You'll probably want to sauce it up, topside while somewhat tender, is not very flavoursome.

I "launched" my 320,000km gx once in the wet. Thought I got wheel spin.







It was the clutch spinning on the flywheel!!!


Loved that car!

[B4TT]

I guess that is more upto Shaz and his willingness to do two jobs in the arvo

casseroles and the like - things you'd cook for a few hours.

I now feel like casserole and I haven't a clue how to make one! GRRR

Disagree.

I have to work at NAB from 10 - 2, then tint Morgs rig, which will take until around 5 at least.

I fair CBF doing your car after Joshwaa. But, you're welcome to come around and sink piss, and we can see how we go? You never know, I might be keen for it. But there is a 78.9% chance I won't be. COuld even fire up the BBQ after if you gents are keen. The missus is away this weekend.

RendawggyDawg - You should be launching at around 6000rpm. Thats how I do mine.

Explains a few things! Thanks Nik! Will use it for those things only, and then splurge on the better steaks


Hard when trying to keep spending to a minimum!

[Brett]

@Nik - so everyone is panicking about the smoke destroying the grapes. But is there anything they can actually do?

[skillionaire]

True, but the way I look at it is; you buy cheap stuff and eat half of it because it tastes like an old boot, so you're still wasting money!
