SlotsNZ Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 "WE" were laying prone on our death-bed, remembering the days gone by when we cleaned the clocks of all the "Wanna be" slot racers, and loaded our car case with gloat before leaving for home each evening....... sigh [selective memory is so SWEET] Still broken Mac, I can host when my lot falls again, but can't really go out anywhere to race. - Tried that at Viv's last week, and struggled to stay upright long enough for one class. Hopefully once ACC wake up and actually look at my claim, I might be in and out of Royston in a few weeks, and back to my usually only semi-damaged self - although there is a rumour Glenda has stuck me on Trade Me with a $1 reserve, buyer must collect.....

nvmyre Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Those whose mums wouldn't let them out to play last night missed out on a great time, and the most unfortunate car collision i've seen in a long time.

SlotsNZ Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 In days to come the incident will be referred to something like this "I remember back in the day, something like this. We called it the 'crash of the Craigs'. That was a crash to end all crashes, we won't likely see the likes of that again" As you can see, I have too much time on my hands........

nvmyre Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 My Lancia was Tboned TWICE ha ha ha ha ha Only Tbone can tbone. I just sorta slammed into you at full speed.

SlotsNZ Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'd hazard a guess that Craig will take it to the panel beaters, get the livery repainted onto it, and it will be back tearing up the track as if nothing had happened by next week. While I am out of it guys, you just HAVE to get someone doing the reporting, pics, videos, maybe even some interviews with the drivers after the race . . come on now, I need sensory stimulation from the race nights. We want to see the crashes, the punch-ups of the drivers as they exit their cars, the obfusticating by the officials . . and most of all, the wrecks !!! we want to see carnage....

nvmyre Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I like the look of my Fly Capri but it looks like a cheap privateer entry compared to that field. However it goes like it has the backing of a fully sponsored works team 5.13 on Marks track 6.45 on Macs track 19k motor! Should be faster soon as I'm about to re-gear it.

slotmadmac Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) 6.45 on Macs track Only when I drove it, You were well off that pace son. Gotta say though - that Capri of yours was one of the nicest cars I have ever driven. I wish I had your build skills. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Kind cool to have a loose night in the cave.
