I only used the :bump: to steal the TQ off you :D

For my victory speech, I would like to thank Boz for the tyres he lent me to TQ with! And also to my new deal with Kyosho here in Australia, Already paying dividends.

Any if you're wondering, yes I am skipping over the 2 weeks too late thing. I think I was actually peaking during the nats as my 4th round of qualifying was my first ever 14 lapper. I think I'll have to talk the missus into letting me go to next years nationals in Sydney.

I wonder who next week's winner of Friday night nationals will be? Get Keysie to start the tipping contest!

And that's where you are going wrong.

It's tell your missus your going....

Gee, dont take any relationshaip advice from z00m....:D.....you'll never race.

I've crunched the numbers for the gaps between Boz and I in the final on Friday night:

Gap at each lap
Lap 1: 1.245s
Lap 2: 0.348s
Lap 3: 0.371s
Lap 4: 1.476s
Lap 5: 2.831s
Lap 6: 2.707s
Lap 7: 1.735s
Lap 8: 2.291s
Lap 9: 1.747s
Lap 10: 2.144s
Lap 11: 1.880s
Lap 12: 1.910s
Lap 13: 1.874s

I made the line to be able to complete the 14th lap by 0.653 seconds.

I really enjoyed this race as there was very little difference in the lap times the whole way. I think there was less than a bobble in it at the end.

Ahh so thats why you were after the results!. :)

p.s I agree Mike way to long for something as important as the Nats to wait for results.

09-05-2011, 08:33 PM
you mean the times? cause we know the results.

knowing by how many seconds you became the first loser is kinda pointless in my opinion. you lost. now you just have to deal with it :P

z00m

There must have been a protest since the last time I checked the results! :D

Gee RkinRcer, you really know how to low someones self esteem.

Suppose you were a 1st loser also. :fonzie:


You just stick with being King of Stock, that's fine by us.

Cause you'll never be a Friday Night National winner.......:eek:

Race times are good to look. I looked at them all week working out how to beat Darren and last week it did, but them I lost to Michael. Bugger.

This weeks goal is not to lose to either Darren and Michael... :D

Now I'll probably lose to Painy, Taylor or Brent. (ps i left Tod's name out for a reason)

you won then, well i do apologize.

so you need the results because no one believes you? or you're not just a bad loser you're a bad winner and want to rub it in every bodies faces? or your ego is so huge you need to have them framed and hung just to make sure everyone knows.

i could have got it wrong, the internet and text does that and having never met you in real life, but you seem to have no problem rubbing people up the wrong way to get what you want. If i saw you down at the club, i assume you would be the loud and obnoxious person pissing everyone off, either that or the small quiet guy down the back who only arcs up on here.

flame away, i'm sure to get another warning from this anyway.

Hey champ come down to a race a metting some time and meet all these people your voicing your opinion on so loudly on here when you are the one who hides away at home never being seen in public. Results are good to work out if you where quicker after a setup change and or to see how you compare to other drivers or divisions. However I do agree mike prob likes reading it to stroke his ego:p

Start polishing the (my) trophy and say you last good bye's to it.

It's the last time you'll be holding it. :D


Bring it on, you Be-itches.....;)


That's for the compliant Keyes,
but I would remove Kai name from the list, he's just a STOCK driver. :) (fish)

With it being points night for truck this week, it's time to get your challengers out for Friday night Nationals again in 4wd modified. While this is not an official event or anything more than a bit of fun, it can add a lot of prestige to your racing CV :D

Past winners include:

Mike Keys
Darren Johnson
Brent Thomas
Michael McDonnell
(Sorry anyone I've missed)

Future winners might include

Chris Bozich
Tod Trower

Those drivers will need to lift their game though, as Keysey is show awesome form leading up to the 2011 State Titles.

Bozzspeed
05-10-2011, 02:06 PM
What I mean by disadvantage is that you ain’t using a Durango DEX410 V3.


Now that’s an advantage…..


And Tod just won’t win one, as he has trouble performing under lights…

who won last night?

What is Tod? Did z00m crack under pressure from Painy. Did Kai win one.


Kai Win One, sounds like a driver from the Republic of China. :D:D:D

z00m
08-10-2011, 02:44 PM
Painy won last night. As with all the races last night I couldn't get a clean run. I managed to put a move on Painy on the opening lap to take the lead and held him off for one or two laps but as usual, I cracked eventually :D By the time I thought to close the door on him he was already through. I cracked later again and it took the marshal a few goes to get me heading in the right direction and by then I think the whole field had gone through.

Well done to Kai (I'm assuming it was Kai) for getting the results up from last night. Great to see the extra effort.

z00m
26-10-2011, 02:56 PM
Forecast says rain will clear up tomorrow and mostly sunny on Friday, so hopefully it should be all good.

Maybe one of the committee members can advise if it will be on like donkey kong!

Sounds like there will be a good number of 2wd's so should be good. That will leave just Boz in 4wd so maybe his chances of winning friday night nationals will improve!!

He'll have to watch out, Neil won it last Friday night!!
