Retro Show report . .

[Nobby]

What a day we had as most of you gheys were at billing lol weather was ace and loads of funky retro motors about saw austins loon but didnt ge to speak to him and a blue xe i think and a red mk2 with a black intercooler? I took the v6 up the strip with standard firestone tyres and 32psi lol and did 6 runs 4 at 14.5 and 1 14.6 and a 14.8 then had a little chat with Mr D dixon who advised me to drop my tyres pressures to 20psi and do a little burnout and on my next run i ran 14.2, so next is some 888s and some coilovers and maybe hit the 13s!! Ill upload a video in a minute :thumb:

Saw your car queuing up and saw one of your 14.5 runs, looked awsome, and what a show, the standard of cars was excellent, cant beat a set of tb'd Mk1 or 2 escorts hooning down the strip :d There were also a couple of novas parked were me and my mates were parked (next to show and shine) one was a red let merit looking one, and the other was (arden?) blue gsi style rep

i also went and thought it was quite a good show and get a good variety of motors down there.

i also had a good look around austins coupe and spoke to him about it, that is a awesome bit of kit and he was more then happy to fire it up the strip all day. GOOD MAN.
