doh !

No other obligations this week, so I'll be there.

:woot2:

XLR8 · July 08, 2009, 05:11:36 PM

I'm hoping to be there too

I hadn't stopped to consider how many great tracks there are in Oz until I started thinking about the track list here and wishing we had time for Hidden Valley, Adelaide (1988), Queensland, Sandown, Surfers Paradise etc.
Maybe next time round eh Ron

Anyway here's a little taster from Oran Park - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRmSTOKLOTw (hit the HQ button)

Oh BTW can any of the admins add the Escort to the car list on the DMR server so we can practise before Friday, thx.

OK I have a favour to ask if its possible Ron please.

Can you configure the Phillip Island race tonight so that it runs at a Virtual time of between 18:30 and 19:00ish as the twilight sky here looks absolutely superb at that time. Just dark enough for lights to look good but not absolutely necessary and around 19:00ish the stars start to come out too, ahhh.....
(not the other tracks tho as they look better in sunshine)

Thx, Mark

I'm OK with that but it means restarting the server. So it means Phillip Island will be last in the queue.
Don't plead, it's not manly.

Oh yeah I'm all for racing in the dusk / dark. Couple days ago it turned dark as me and Doorz were driving on Bathurst and it was awesome

I'm thinking of joining this little event tonight but I'm a bit bummed that it's Escort only. I don't like the Escort :sideways:

You'll get over it. Life's full of stuff like that.

Thx Ron, I think that'll make a great and fitting end to the evening

I wasn't pleading, I just have Icon Tourettes :blink::blink::blink::blink::blink:

Something of a 'curate's egg' this evening, good in parts. The last race at Phillip Island was particularly romantic under the Southern Cross. :lmfao:

Deetz · July 10, 2009, 11:59:53 PM

Some excellent racing.

I joined a bit late, but had good battles in most races.

Roll on next time. :boxing:

XLR8 · July 11, 2009, 12:04:04 PM

Yes, some great racing again

Quote of the night as we were screaming round Phillip Island in the dusk came from Doorz over Ventrillo - "Is that the Southern Cross up there?" - I nearly fell off the track.
Hardcore classic racing with Astronomy lessons, what more could you want :roflmao:

I'd be there but you need to make it "The Saturday Night tour". Work doesn't let me bring my wheel in for some reason:sad:
