The idea with this venture is to hopefully create a win/win situation. I have an asset which was going to be sitting in the shed this year & would depreciate even while I'm sleeping. This is at the end of the day a fund raiser, not a huge amount of money I would think would be made but enough hopefully enough to take some of the sting out of several race teams budgets, whilst at the same time giving the oportunity for those that wondered & thought about taking one of these beasts for a waltz, to actually do so. Quite a number of folk have already taken this car for a spin, including my wife who I could hear screaming above the engine noise, & I have never felt either the driver or equipment have been in any particular danger because the drivers always tend to drive within there limits. I have to emphasize the 'at you're own risk' thing, as there is an element of risk. I will be getting this thing going, & ironing out the bugs (hopefully), & in the future I would be glad to talk with other bonefide clubs/race teams/speedway related rundraisers that might want to be recipients of this venture. Those that might be interested only need ask. Porry, get in touch with me when in Palmy, we can do senior citizens discounts  . Thankyou, BL |

Porry, you might have yourself a deal there mate. If you win I'll promise to mash/puree you're food for a week, & if I win I'll expect to see you wearing a sandwhich board at the PN team champs that says 'Waikato totally suck, they drive like fairy's, & they ain't gonna win'. I"ll even take 2 sparkplugs out. |

I am keen as.......
The only reservation I have is having just looked at the photos of the 16C Saloon and thinking - oh darn....what if that was me....($$$$$$$)
Still , I guess I wouldnt be going to the extreme - and in all honestly I suppose I would only be going about 1 quarter of its full potential....if that...

Now Porry, you do realise the ‘Tui Girls’ that you see on the tele, are the way they look when you have had copious quantities of the said product. In real life, lets just say its not that surprising you hear about various incidents involving sheep from around the area where Tui is produced, some of them very pretty sheep mind you. I wouldn’t want to be the sober bus driver with that lot on board, so not sure if you were doing Marty any favours. It might be true that the stockcar could turn right & inflict some good damage on the sprinter, but have you thought what might happen if you missed. I can just imagine you emerging from the steaming wreck of this prized treasure of history with an irate Mr Harris marching toward you, I wouldn’t want to be in you’re shoes. It’d be quite entertaining to watch mind you. |
