This is true bud, thing is i gave her the application forms on monday and only submitted it yesterday!

But yes all in due time. rome wasnt built in a day!

[6teen_valve]

Cant wait to see you owning a vdub. The opel is really neat so I can only imagine how a vw will look.

Is that sarcasm i hear or a compliment?

I cant wait for the vw, and the detail bud has bitten as well!

Just need to hurry and wait!

Hi guys

So I just wanted to say it was really good to me all of you okes today.

1point9 Shot for organizing the ride in Chad's cab around the truck bud... holy **** but that oke can drive! It was the best R50 I have ever spent and I am still smiling from ear to ear For those of you who have not been fortunate enough to experience something like this, my advice is if you ever get the opportunity to do it, DO IT. The grip and cornering ability is simply mind blowing

Randzvw - I really dig that VR of yours (following you on the freeway I got to really appreciate that sound ), and it was good to meet you and your cuzzie...

6teen_valve - it was really nice to meet you dude - now sell that slowpel and get yourself a proper ride

low82 - Lekker hooking up with you, I dig the rid - but I reckon it's time for a bonnet there hey Oh ja, and shot for organizing some lekker hot weather - I got me a focking mooi sunglasses tan now

To mst-05 and devZo even though you never same through to the track, it was also good meeting you guys.

So I'll check you all at the M&G on the 8th (Mike, that is Wed in case you are wondering)

How was it guys?

I was so farkin tempted to drop out of my degree just to make it to the track day today!

[6teen_valve]

the cars were farking epic, bud, supercharged ute with gas. Skyline r33 and a atom type of car. Then there was the challenge guys, wicked day out, got a wicked cool sunglasses tan.

That ute was something else man.... and the sound of that Atom like thing with the Hyubusa motor in it was too cool.

What an awesome day out....!!!

So when is the next one

[lawrence]

Pic's of the supercharged ute and the skyline...(sorry about the lack of photgraphy skills)

[1point9]

Hehe, it's a bit of a bummer when we get a small turnout, but it was really nice to see the smile on Lawrence's face as he clambered out of Chad's racecar! How awesome was that driving Lawrence! I was so stoked I couldn't stop smiling myself.

I got some video of my run with Chad but it's hi-res (100MB) and I have no way of reducing the size (anyone who can help, please shout). It is just insane how that Mk1 handled. The difference between a hot-hatch for the street and a full-on racecar is HUGE. As Lawrence says, if you get a chance to go with one of the Bunker boys around the track ... take it!

Big thanks to Rob and all his helpers for organising another awesome day at Roy Hesketh! I'll post some pics as soon as I can.

Bleak I missed it!!

Was an awsome day out.

Thanks mike.

20v with itb's and the top mount intercooler is an oil cooler, with a duct from the front bumper,
and then slats in the hood for hot air to pass thru.

Very very neat, i must say.

[1point9]

Not sure if this will work but here goes anyway. A crazy wild ride with Chad Bartrum in his VW Golf Mk1 at Roy Hesketh (with a hand-held camera)!

I wanna go racing

[1point9]

Thanks Rob. It was an awesome day, so thanks for all your hard work, man. That was the BEST few minutes I've had in a car ever ... Chad drives like a madman!
