i so suggested this idea to dylan ages ago i could just never be bothered starting it :P good work boys

howdy all... little story for u all, from when was driving to work this morning, at about 4:30am. going my normal way to work, there's a roundabout which i go straight through and then it curves up into a bridge about 50m down the road. going there this morning, come around the roundabout, its pitch black as there are no streetlights on, and onto the bridge, where i find some stupid little kids (im assuming cos its holidays) have left logs and big tree trunks and branches covering the entire road, probably about 30 or 40cm high. hit the brakes and swerved to the left hoping to avoid but the kids streched it all the way to the edge of the bridge, so i had nowhere to go but over the top of these branches. \ pulled over, did a quick check of my car cos i couldnt see much, then went and started pulling all the **** off the road (they were big branches too, i struggled to pull a couple off the road by myself!) and as i was cleaning the road, it was so dark i watched 3 more cars hit the same branches and almost me cos they couldnt see anything either. anyway rang the police told them to come down and clear the road and the continued to work, where i put the car up on the hoist (couple of hours later) and inspected the damage. looks like i need a new rim which ****s me, and i also dented some of the exhaust sheilds underneath. so just letting u all know (esp canberrans) to keep an eye out for little ****s doing stuff in the holidays, and just warning u all the be careful! BTW, i wasnt even pushing it, cos i was still in the warming up stage of driving to work before i usually give it a bit in the cool air :P but yeah, here's the pics and feel free to donate to the "buy michael a new wheel" foundation :P

Ponderances... 1. Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants. 2. Marriage changes passion. Suddenly you're in bed with a relative. 3. I saw a woman wearing a sweatshirt with "Guess" on it. So, I said, "Implants?" She hit me. 4. I don't do drugs. I get the same effect just standing up fast. 5. I live in my own little world. But it's OK. They know me here. 6. I got a sweater for Christmas. I really wanted a screamer or a moaner. 7. If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport a terminal? 8. I don't approve of political jokes. I've seen too many of them get elected. 9. There are two sides to every divorce: yours and ****head's. 10. I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. 11. I am a nobody, and nobody is perfect. Therefore, I am perfect. 12. Everyday, I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive. 13. How come we choose from just two people to run for President, but among fifty for Miss America? 14. Isn't having a smoking section in a restaurant like having a peeing section in a swimming pool? 15. Snowmen fall from Heaven unassembled. 16. Every time I walk into a singles bar, I can hear Mom's wise words: "Don't pick THAT up, you don't know WHERE IT's been!" 17. A good friend will come and bail you out of jail, but a true friend will be sitting there next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This man was driving his car down the freeway when he gets pulled over by a policeman for speeding. The cop walk up, and says to the man "do you realise how fast you were travelling back then. Lets see your licence and registration" Not wanting to get a ticket, the man replies "well, thats a little hard, seeing how i dont have a licence and i just stole this car!" Amazed, the officer asks "Why did you steal the car?" to which the man replied, "just so i could hide the body in the boot." The officer screams at the man to not move, while he runs back to the car and radio's for help. Within minutes, the man is surrounded by about 10 police cars, and had guns pointing at him from every direction. The chief of police walks slowly towards the man and asks him to open the boot.The man does, and suprisingly the boot is completely empty. He then asks for his licence and registration, which then man is eager to offer. The cheif of police looks at the licence, then at the man, then towards the other officer. Confused, he says "But this man here says that he pulled you over, and you told him that you had no licence, you stole the car and had a dead body in the boot!" the man replies "Really? huh, lying ***** like that probably said i was speeding too!"

NEVER try to outsmart a woman: A man calls his wife at home and says: "Honey, i have been asked to go fishing at a big lake up in Canada with my boss and several of his friends. We'll be gone for a week. This is a good opportunity for me to get that promotion I've been wanting so would you please pack me enough clothes for a week and set out my rod and tackle box. We're leaving from the office so i will swing by the house later to pick my things up. Oh and please pack my new blue silk pyjamas." The wife thinks this sounds a little fishy but being a good wife she does exactly what her husband asked. The following weekend he comes home a little tired, but otherwise looking good. The wife welcomes him home and asks if he caught many fish? He says, "Yes! Lots of Walleye, some Bluegill, and a few pick. But why didnt you pack my new blue silk Pyjamas like i asked? The wife replies: "I did, they were in your tackle box." Women will ALWAYS outsmart men.

(ACT) saw 2 unmarked camry cop cars also gotta love the marked Charade police car - Constable Kenny Koala :P

cool :D thanks mate. i understand now... no more stupid questions promise :P

haha ok... sorry for re-posting but i understand what u mean cos thats what we were doing, we were tuning the car on the dyno and changing the ignition timing for each run looking for gains over the entire rev range, i just know nothing about dyno's really and was only wondering if they are comparable with other results or only for comparing the percentage gains for the car in question... if that makes any sense? and also if the results we got on a hub dyno would be similar to what the car would get on the floor dyno... or i guess it depends on each individual dyno?

i think its funny that 3 little letters create such controversy on these forums. i vote that the word CES should be added to the banned words list, so when someone types it it comes up as *** :P :P :P

hey guys, was wondering what is the difference between the common floor dyno's and the newish hub dyno's. i know there is a important safety difference but apart from that, is there any major differences between the 2? in terms of power/torque output and things like that? cos we were messing around with a car on a hub dyno last night and the figures werent as much as i had thought they should be, but this car is much much much faster than a stock sportivo. any comments? (waits for rollamods cos he knows everything! :P)
