Hmmmmm.... very tempted.... what to do, what to do...

Very little to do at work today (as usual), and probably won't be allowed out this weekend, as in-laws phoned last night to say they're coming to visit. Dang.
Should've made up some cock'n'bull story, and told my wife it was a wrong number when she asked who was on the phone...
I'll probably chicken out of the ride, as usual. :weird:
But at least I had a ride to work this morning, and it was SO fun. And loud. :whistle:
Who'darthort that removing such a small amount of zorst restriction could free up noticeable number of neddies? As in wheelieing vs. not. :ride:

That's what you think. But mattt already hates me (eh, Matt?) :Pokey: and he hasn't even met me yet. I must have an efeect on people out of all proportion to my mana or lack of it...


I don,t think you would be disappointed.
Yeah, no doubt. Just a bit awkward sneaking away from work, as I'd have to go past my boss's office, and I'd have to take all my crap with me.
Wish I'd checked KB before I left for work. :mad:

I fucked it up.
Told my boss that seeing I wasn't doing anything, and I felt really sick, I needed to go riding for a few hours to see if that would help.

He [insert glowering smiley here] said, "So, how is you not doing anything much any different to normal?" :nono:

This was at the coffee shop. I told the barrista to poison his coffee, but instead he only made him wait for it. And then the bastid (the barrista) said, "Hey - come to Pukekohe with me today! I've got a mate with a Porsche (GT3) that's testing it."

:argh:

"Hey - come to Pukekohe with me today! I've got a mate with a Porsche (GT3) that's testing it."

:argh:

And he was doing 1:07s straight off the trailer. Fucken nice cage that one, definitely the fastest one there today.

Although Adam in the WRS D1NZ Cefiro drift car was the most spectacular. Over 170kays through turn one with the wheels on full opposite lock. The Ausy drivers here for the battle tomorrow were standing with me on the inside of turn one going "FAAAARRRRRK!!!!!!" every time Adam came through. Most spectacular driving I've ever seen.
