Rollaclub Social (Off-Topic)

Thought I would have already found a thread here today about this, but oh well. New WIN Australian version started last night did anybody actually watch it??? Thoughts? I quite enjoyed it, but I'm sorta of the opinion that any top gear is good top gear. You can deffinately tell that WIN has a bit more funding to throw at it than what SBS did.

Ken block today guys, who the lucky ones that managed to get some tickets? can't wait to get down there!

I no my 3k is a nugget and probly shouldnt be doing this stuff!! but about 2 months ago i got her on the bake 1 legger lol foot flat to the foor and she just sat their spining....

So the family and I went to the Monaro club Show n shine on the weekend. It was heaven. Here are some photos. Couldn't take as many as I would have liked considering I ran out of battery and memory on both my phone and camera. But here are some of the best I got (all uneditted, straight from the camera or phone): PS I'm no photographer lol And its very difficult to get photos with no people unless you have one of those huge fancy cameras where everyone runs out of your way.

So enough of my fellow Americans have failed so bad in life that operating an automobile is out of their range of skills.

Apparently don't do shit! http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/22748911/detail.html Should I be surprised a pissweak metal spacer which did nothing to address the root of the problem hasn't solved the problem? Cue re-recall.

I'm currently listening to Flobots as its in my CD player. But for some reason I always have the Planet of the Apes song from the Simpsons stuck in my head whenever I work on my car. "I hate every chimp I see, from 'chipmunk' A to 'chipmunk' Z." You'll never make a monkey out of me!!!!!! Do you have a Rolla song? And why and what for?

Reddit is boring with all the major subs in blackout. Thought I'd pop on in while I'm logging into old forums to try and alleviate boredom. Man I miss what the Internet was like in 2007 when I signed up here. Lots of good memories. Met heaps of good people. I live in a small hippie town in New Zealand now. Don't wrench anymore, way too expensive of a hobby here. I dabble in building ghetto electric low rider bikes. Still get the occasional mod support email from someone reporting spam. Brightens my day.

this may have been covered before but i thought i'd ask... has anyone ever made one of these before??? they can be dangerous but they are hell fun... i made one and it shot a MDF projectile thats the same size as the barrel (2") through a 16mm MDF wall from 15 meters away... its fun as!!! i took it to a quiet park and it can easily fire the same bit of MDF about 100 meters... and it cost about 40 bucks to make!!!

Some of you might know that its my other halfs b'day today. Thought that i'd post this up and get a few replys as a little suprise for her. :harhar:

[Ezekiel 25:17] The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee. Don't let this be the last words you hear ^^^ Change your avatar :)

The land of reasonably abundant KE70s (that I never noticed before), some KE20's and some KE30's. And they virtually all look rather bodgy. And they all either have steelies, or very very similar deep dish 13x7 jellybeans or something. I've seen one KE10 too. And several old school Lancers, Gallants, Capellas (I think) and some other cars I can't recognise. And wow, the rice is really quite abundant, especially with the Proton Wira's and Satrias (no surprise, nothing new), but now also with those silly looking Daihatsu Move van-like things. Yuck. And haha, vans look funny with RWD offset deep dish wheels. Because they're meant to have wheels with a more FWD …

Hi. I'm new to this. I have just purchased my first car. It is a 100% Original 1979 KE-55 Corolla with a 4K-C engine. The car is in immaculate condition and has only done 57,000 kms with all the original service manuals and maintainence manuals all in perfect condition. The question I'm asking is should I hot it up or leave it all original. I don't know how much they go for. I am very happy with this car. Even if the engine is fairly small. Cheers

what is wrong with people in the world these days? we have 3 kids (between 6-7 years old) and wanted a better lifestyle, so we moved from suburbia to out in the country so our kids could frolick in the back yard, without annoying others. now we live on the outskirts of a country town (Laidley) and live on acreage, but it is worse than suburbia ever was.... for example, up the back has 6 dogs which often bark at us and the kids minding our own business in our own backyard. they even come into our yard (through the fence) to provoke our dogs. the yard two over to our left has 3 dogs, and they constantly seem to bark and be at war to the 6 up the back (their yards ad…

http://au.news.yahoo.com/060904/23/10ebv.html Steve Irwin killed in stingray attack By 7News Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin has been killed in a stingray attack near Cairns on Australia's far north coast. It was believed Irwin had been swimming off the coast of Cairns when he was stung. "It is understood he was killed by a sting-ray barb that went through his chest," Brisbane's Courier Mail reported this afternoon. Irwin was best known for his documentary series "The Crocodile Hunter". He was born in Victoria and found his love of animals after following in his father's footsteps, volunteering his services to the Queensland Government's East Coast Cro…

I recieved this in an email. The new Benz - Very different....really different!...SCROLL DOWN... .....and now for the 'really different' part : No Steering wheel - Can you drive with a joystick? I bet the kids and grandkids probably can. The influence of video games in our lives has really arrived.
