BAN01T · 26 Aug 2004, 11:04 (Ref:1077897)

Well as I was the person who tipped them off.........they really stuffed up, wouldn't admit anything but they were willing to show us over the car and transporter........very hard to hide obvious sensors on the guards! Cracked 270kph down the strip btw (well that's what Simon told me anyway)

rdmdog · 26 Aug 2004, 11:15 (Ref:1077905)

Me thinks that there was someone else who let the cat out of the bag a little earlier in order for a member of the regulatory body to be ib attendance?????????

BAN01T · 26 Aug 2004, 11:16 (Ref:1077906)

Nope.........all me mate, I met said offical in the morning after he had driven up.

rdmdog · 26 Aug 2004, 11:27 (Ref:1077921)

Did he just happen to be in Woomera on his way for a coffee at Spud's Roadhouse?

Techo · 26 Aug 2004, 11:27 (Ref:1077922)

Yep - all this is not really good for V8's.
Who wants to sponsor cheats !!

When in fact most teams bend the rules as much as possible.....

Any PR is good PR -not always -skaife Ingall was good But..

OUT of CONTROL this year- just lucky to be going to China -great job by all involed..
Top show

rdmdog · 26 Aug 2004, 11:30 (Ref:1077927)

Castrol, Pirtek, Im sure there are plenty more

Techo · 26 Aug 2004, 11:36 (Ref:1077933)

What ever happened to keeping a lid on these things ?
It's nothing new these hicups

& no sports person will win a gold medal on drugs either

Bruce Moxon · 26 Aug 2004, 11:50 (Ref:1077947)

Thanks Harves.

This is gonna get ugly - and Simon's a buddy, too. Bugger.

It seems I may have slighted AA prematurely, indeed they ran the cover and the first page of their latest edition with some of the detail of the Dynamikgate situation.

More power to them.

Techo · 26 Aug 2004, 12:49 (Ref:1078015)

Does it have a artist's impression of a sport sedan on the cover ?
Gotta Laugh

"So tell me Rooooooy, I'd imagine your all over this one"?

"I took time off from meetings with Jack Rogge trying to convince the man for a need for a prooobe into Olympic judging, and rang my good friend Tony Cochrane, who is a bit of a clown, and he'd know I'd say it, and thank me for my honesty, to tell him, we need a like at this Woomera business. We can't have every bloody car in the country whizzing up and down the odd airport. This needs to be thoroughly PROOOOOOOOOOOBED."

"Indeed Roy. It would put on a bloody good show for the asylum seekers though."

"Be a bloody tease. When you get out of there, this is what we drive on Australia roads. Pity your being flown home without ever driving one......

Bruce Moxon · 26 Aug 2004, 21:34 (Ref:1078553)

Falcadore - take a bow. *APPLAUSE*

**GTRMagic** · 26 Aug 2004, 21:39 (Ref:1078558)

So what was that twaddle report on Sports Tonight last night? Its like they bought AA and read the reported facts word for word, with Simon's car running around a race track in the background....

.... sensationalism perhaps?

xr6turbo · 26 Aug 2004, 22:23 (Ref:1078607)

Maybe ten read the forum too

rdmdog · 26 Aug 2004, 22:27 (Ref:1078609)

Slow news day at the Olympics?

Well Jana has already had her race... so no more waffle and piffle from there

retro · 27 Aug 2004, 10:42 (Ref:1078982)

This will be dealt with by the stewards at Sandown.

**GTRMagic** · 27 Aug 2004, 11:00 (Ref:1079003)

It would want to be dealt with before then, if the TEGA/AVESCO stormtrooper retains car #14's logbook, it cannot be entered in the Sandown 500 can it?

clarkey · 27 Aug 2004, 12:11 (Ref:1079084)

Car 14 will not be the car that will not run at sandown. Avesco and Cams will throw the book at these silly, silly boys!

retro · 27 Aug 2004, 12:17 (Ref:1079096)

The actual charge has not been worked out as yet.

The same stewards who did the SBR/CPR penality will decide the outcome at Sandown. As of today it will only be a minor infringement.

It will NOT be dealt with by TEGA/AVESCO.

**GTRMagic** · 27 Aug 2004, 12:26 (Ref:1079107)

Ah but there still remains the issue of the trespass....

BAN01T · 28 Aug 2004, 09:43 (Ref:1079817)

Not trespassing if escorted by a defence member.

Xfiles · 28 Aug 2004, 09:48 (Ref:1079819)

I have been trying to see things from your point of view but, I can.t stick my head up my ARS? far enough.
Believe many people, to tell tale of event & PLANNING.

Which then begs another question, one of authority to introduce a non-military, and also non-paying person to the grounds of the facility.....

This will go round for a fair while, before ending up where it began....

... do we have a mulberry bush handy?

mayhem · 28 Aug 2004, 11:16 (Ref:1079853)

So how do you get a team's transporter, V8 racecar, equipment, personnel and driver onto a military base?
