no worse than hyperlinking in your your signatures over "there".datsunboy wrote:hmmmm.....should we be calling that spam?

feel free to delete if it bothers you though...
i only posted here for the interest of the others that couldnt be there, as it wasn't a meet attended by either club as such.
have to say though, i was dissappointed at the fairly low turn out of 80's cars, heaps of 70's stuff, and 90+

Yeah would have love to have seen more 80s skylines, bluebirds, pulsars etc there were a couple of exa's there mind you haha
Perhaps I was a bit preoccupied with getting the car on the track and being lucky enough to fang round in Allan Lewis' blown v8 240z but I thought they needed to announce more of what was going on over the loudspeakers - missed the figure 8 comp (did it happen?) and nearly the exhibition lap.. saying that was a cool turnout and definitely testament to why I'm a Nissan / Datsun man like you guys!
By the way - first time driving at hampton downs - what an awesome, challenging track! plenty of off camber bits and wide exits make for easy power oversteer!

yeah, that pic of you in the track makes the track look quite cool to drive on!
would love to have a squirt on a track one day, maybe when we get the 140J finished haha

Love the pic of the 510 with the GTR R35s. Looks like a school boy cramming into the shot behind his hero. Awesome.
Looks like something we missed, hope it continues, and grows. Shame about the '80s cars, may be a thing for the future?
