There were 2 Silver FTO's today. One is mine.Btw - who was in the silver fto who waited for me, aza and khalil on the way home? I've forgotten names already
I did pull over about 15 min into the return trip, to wait for a few people who'd dropped back.
So if that's what you're talkin' bout, my name is Richie.
And just as a general note, I had a blast today. And I'm also struggling to remember names
Oh and any suggestions, anyone, as to how I post photos directly into this thread?

If your scared of hitting someone... Lay of the hoon and keep your distance, like subbie said, no point being up someones ass.

Lol it's all good guys, don't worry it wasn't a race, nobody is winning any medals
I must say though, this was a very relaxed run, not many twisties so it's good to ease into as a first cruise. Next time when we go on a real spirited run with a lot of sharp turns with barely any part which is going straight, it's crucial that everybody gives each other plenty of room, brake before you get to the corner and accelerate out of it, not in the middle of it, cos around sharp turns that's an accident waiting to happen.
When I saw the 4 cars at the back stuck together and breaking while turning, it didn't look very safe lol, so just thought I'd point it out. Please don't treat it like you have to be up somebody's ass to prove the point that you're faster than them, it only makes the person in front of you uncomfortable + high chance of you ramming them in the ass if they suddenly brake after realising that they can't continue taking a corner at the speed that they were travelling it.

Lol.. you guys should've been to some of the midnight touge runs i used to do...trail braking up each other's arses was the norm. Ahh good times i had in the FTO doing that.
Anyways yeah, nice relaxing cruise yesterday. I really did have fun, was good to get the line out as i don't drive it much anymore tbh and have way less time than i used to for cars. I didn't see what a lot of you guys are talking about.. wouldn't let me overtake
My highlight...AJ and my little blat up the hills right after we left the town
Hey Sub, were you behind us ?
