Had to parralel park the other day, heaps of room but felt unnatural. @Sideshow its still a bit cold but the bikini fish and the unclad variety have been seen before (until the sun hides behind a cloud and the sandflies find them)Quote:

saw this a couple of days ago, think he forgot to open his trips. Ooops
Bathurst 1000 this weekend, always a blast.
No chance for an oops moment, due to the handbrake sitting in the seat next to me, but here's a couple of shots my personal lap record of Bathurst, starting from pole position of course.

New class aye. utes with trailers? Wounder if they will ban turbos :thumbsup:
Maybe... the new class of utes and trailers should specify a ute with a fully watered and fuelled, 4-up GVM of 3.1t and a 1.25t trailer... ooohhh four and a third tonnes... Try that on standard brakes at the end of Conrod!Quote:

I’d say it looks like a case of bloat;) someone’s already stuck it but if your quick and stick the poor old Isuzu back on her feet she might just pull through :XD:
It happens where you would least expect some times.
It’s a bit steeper than it looks. I’d say slight angle , grass a bit wet n hit a hole/rut. These fellas are no strangers to the job... First one eight years here...dunno if a good or bad thing thoughQuote:

Saves backing up to get in.
I did roll a quad doing the same many years ago on the same corner. A bit of ice changed everything
Saw this one this week, had to have a (sympathetic) laugh at the bloke finding what looked to be the only wet patch in a rather large paddock.

Yep.Quote:
