I need some mudflaps

Trust me, they didnt work on that day lol

[Loudtoy]

Looking at that i think i may well have got stuck seriously lack moving power in coditions like that for some reason that i haven't figured out yet.
Looked like fun tho

It was a Toyota motor ... and you're really close with the 3SGTE guess. Change one letter in that code, and you've got it.

Change or omit? Cause if it was a 3S-GZE that would be 'O' for Owesome... but i'm guessing it's just a 3S-GE ?

Still.... pretty damn cool.

[Leon]

It's ""O" for orsum.

I think i could hear a S/C whine but im not sure if that was just Leon cos he was having to clean his car at the end of the day

I got stuck, as did Pete in his TRD LSD equipped corolla The trick was to keep the foot flat, although the temperature guage was telling me the engine wasnt liking it sometimes

[Leon]

3S-GZE

[toymato]

I heard the whine from the parking area. Assumed it was the 4 wheel drive. Guess it was a grunty supercharger.

[DexGT]

Yea , that was a crazy van , did he beat you in the end Toy_baru ? , you shoulda brought the corolla up for better results , though I think starlets were the car of choice on the day .
It wasn't fast but it sure was fun sliding around in the mud

[toymato]

I don't know what the final times were, he may have beaten my time but my spirit isn't broken (much)

[B1NZ]

Me and Stace are supposed to be doing the results but we still havent recieved them, So who knows who came where.

I think i was 3rd overall, 2nd in class when i left but a few others still had runs to do, the track was drying out so I'm guessing I may have been bumped down the list a bit

[Leon]

Apparently Ollie and Marie came up to take 2nd and 3rd overall on their last runs, as apparently the track was just getting better and better.

Euan hasn't faxed me the results sheet yet though, so that's only rumour at this stage.

I can honestly say that was one of the most entertaining days of autocross action ever.

First time i've seen open diff cars spinning both wheels equally. i'm sure the LSD did nothing useful in that mud.
Funny thing is that spinning the wheels at 50Km/h was not as productive as spinnig them at 140Km/h... the car speed went up from crawling pace to.... walking pace

Lol, I ended up towing that blardy thing home...with my ae86! I went for a drive out later in the day and it was just finishing up (Leon I think I saw you driving out of Levin in the tomato?)

I was behind them and noticed the trailer wheel was doing some disco moves. Pulled them over and turned out it had broken 2 studs. So I ended up towing the Sunny.

Good old supercharger allowed me to tow it at 100kph up Haywards Hill in 5th!

(I had tequila for dinner the night before so didn't come out in the morning.)

Looks like it was a fun day, cool to see Marie is getting really keen on Motorsport

[Leon]

Yep, I saw you on the straight just South of Levin. Not many cars the same colour as yours.
