    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Top show. Rather see him back going head to head with MM. But never mind...

    Lol, if it was a Wellington taxi race it would be Prius vs Camry hybrid - not a V8 in sight.

    That made me laugh !!!!
    I have two groups of friends Merv,one lot drive Benzs and Range Rovers. The others, like one who just joined me in retirement bought new Yaris ! a fucking Yaris ! after telling me my new Falcon XR6 rode a bit hard,a month later traded to a larger car a COROLLA ! I refuse to follow the lemmings and own these tiny Hatches just to get 7L per 100. Kapiti is 'next step heaven' and full of them.

    Getting off subject, but yeah - It's all about 'mindset' eh Gaz. I drive a turboed Imprezza and because of the fucking HP presence, only rarely get to enjoy it, but it will never be replaced by a Yaris......................

    Yeah sorry for my little rant there Bill. Back on topic, I think it might have 05 when all the mechanics were giving Nakano the rib about his high speed get off there when I think a rear tyre blew.
    The fastest speed at the end of the straight that year was 346 kph. So Nakano must of been up around the 300 mark !!! ?? I remember standing next to him and thinking I could put him in my pocket he was that small.Obviously a tough little dude.

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    It delamenated and locked up the back wheel when a huge hunk of it jammed in the swingarm throwing him over the bars. Was well scary to watch.

    Couple of tidbits (if you haven’t already read them) to tide you over to the next race — thankfully just a matter of days away.

    Limit your options if you like but I try and enjoy both, life is too short.

    No MotoGP style fuel limits (just to bring me back on topic....vaguely) in my house and I figure the more petrol I'm using the more fun I'm having. 7L/100km's? Shameful! 21L/100km's? Yeah baby!
