Re: GT40 Australia #48

Just one thing...it would look better with front number plate fitted. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Hopefully soon.

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Pete, she has turned out an absolute stunner !

Any bets on whether you or Di gets the first drive ????

So bloody close now - you had better start prepping the neighbours for the onslaught !

Kind Regards,

Of course he'll get the 1st drive. I can't wait to see the smile on his face - and I don't mind if he sleeps in it!!

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Uh OH /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif It appears that not only is the lovely Di /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif reading my post's she has learned to reply /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif. At least she concedes that I get first drive /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif Of course that may mean that from then on it is hers and I get the RX8 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
I think she should stick to fishing...

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Di, you have just opened "Pandora's Box" (so to speak) - sleeping in a GT40 raises some questions :

- with whom ?

- doing what ?

- does your medical insurance cover chiropractors ?

- ask naughty old Bill 'X' about it & see how many "red-faced icons" you get ! (name witheld to protect the guilty - there are enough "Bills" on the Forum for him to remain hidden - or fess up & become a legend) !

Have fun - like that's going to be hard !

Kind Regards,

Peter D.
 
Re: GT40 Australia #48

Pete,

All I can say is that you'd better start taking yoga classes immediately! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Flexibility is the key! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

To be safe, keep your cellphone nearby,

with your chiropractor's number on speed dial! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Thanks Tim. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Peter D and Bill, I can assure you that I have no intention of sleeping in it. Maybe if I was eighteen I would try it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif But these days comfort takes priority.
However I am curious to know if um er /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif it is possible. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif Has anyone actually managed Er /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif IT? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif
With Pandora or anyone of her mates /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Maybe Bill
X has the key to the correct technique /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I've got a confession...my wife has driven the GT40 more than I have. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Hoping to rectify that once it's back on the road after the rebuild. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Will Di take it out on the track? I'm pretty sure my other half will give it a go.

And you guys have got me thinking about possible positions...may be possible with the door open... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Re: GT40 Australia #48

Pete,

It's possible, but it ain't easy! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Craig,

Door open? Now that's just plain cheating! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Craig, I asked Di about track days and she said " Nah I would'nt like to embarrass the guys". /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif Dont you just love confident Chicks?.
Bill is it really possible with the doors closed? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif You bloody LEGEND!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
