    Not going - too darn cold (I nearly froze my butt off in Burnie last Christmas day!). Concours in in Launceston Civic Square Mon 11 Sept. That's the only public event but if you wanted to see the cars on the road a good hint would be that the cars arrive in Tas on Sun 10.

    It's worth having a look - 75 or so Fcars in a line is a pretty awesome sight for any car person!

    "coming" and "tassie" should never be used in the same sentence... :D

    I think the Boags brewery was on the agenda for today, so they have a good excuse for poor lap times at Symmons tomorrow. :)

    Correct it is Jon's (mrhatmostly) car. Thought someone might recognise it! I drive a Toyota Celica (non GT-Four) and a Mitsubishi Starion. I have driven Jon's old GrpA GT-Four and I am actually the site administrator for www.grparallye.com so I'm a self confessed Celica nut even if the Starion seems to put more of a smile on my face, hehe.

    Woah, thats crazy that you posted a link to my thread on Boostcruising.com did you happen to put two and two together that I was also a member on here or was that just a big coincidence?

    yeah i lurk around aussieelises... just in case i buy an elise sometime ( :rolleyes: ) so i perve on the 340R's and Exige's that pop up there.

    i used to have a Cordia GSR, pretty fast car for $500 worth of japanese scrap metal :p

    Your not wrong, my 21yo Starion still knows how do dish it out to some much younger and more modern cars.

    Jon's car will be on the market soon, are you interested in a 340R perhaps, something unique for Australia? :p

    deathtraps. if they're anything like the cordia with it's power delivery it's a light-pole-seeker with wheels... 50hp @ 3,500rpm... 150hp @ 4,000rpm... gives one hell of a rush but make sure you're pointing straight when boost comes on. :eek:

    think i'm allergic to modern cars. i'd love something like that, the whole minimalist raw driving experience really appeals to me, but it's just too ugly for what it is. i'll wait around for the Atom to see how i fancy that in a year or two.
