Mallala - 16/05/05
It was a really, really enjoyable day (apart from one minor detail that i shall not discuss here
). Very well organised event and had plenty of interesting cars, so long as you thought that EVO's were interesting!
Still, there were plenty of other cars around there, such as a couple of S15's, skylines, Mini Cooper (new one), Mirages, including a supercharged one that sounded like an annoyed, amplified electric bee, GSR's, an N/A MR2, BMW Z4......and a racing RX7.
We were divided up into categories, so people were fairly evenly matched. I was in the slowest category, which was mainly all N/A cars. I think I can safely say that I was the fastest in the group, and was not too far off the group above me, if not actually quicker than a couple of them too. Unfortunately, it was not officially timed, so cannot give you everyones times.
Hand timed I did a 1m30.7, which was about 4 seconds faster than last time. When you bear in mind that an EVO VIII was "only" managing 1m24's, I felt that was pretty reasonable.
I will upload some pics shortly and even a couple of vids (for anyone that cares
).
