TWO GAY GUYS SIT AND TALK IDLY TO EACH OTHER ON A PARK BENCH.

================================================== ========

Hello:



HI:



What’s your name?



DANNY DUNLOP… AND YOURS?



Garry Goodyear.



HOW ARE YOU?



Tired.



OH WHEELY?



Yes, I just seem to be going round in circles all the time.



ME TOO. IT’S LIKE BURNING RUBBER ALL DAY LONG.



Yes I know what you mean, I was told to tread lightly today. I have weak walls

with a high temperature. All round sickly.



I’M FEELING SO DEFLATED.

THIS MORNING I HAD A BAD CASE OF FLATULENCE, YOU KNOW, TOO MUCH AIR…

HAVING TO RUN YOU KNOW WHERE AND STEER AT THAT DAMN RIM ALL MORNING.



Oh yes, I know, having to keep a low profile…makes you sick.



Got a girl friend??



YES I HAVE, SHE’S A BIT OF A CROSS PLY, BUT WITH A GREAT BODY STATISTIC.

15 HR 75 SP FROM YOKOHAMA



WOW!! Can she Hancook?



YOU BET SHE CAN, TROUBLE IS, SHE HAS THESE BURN-OUTS AND FLATSPOTS

HERSELF INTO A SPIN. GOES WHEELY NUTS OVER NOTHING WHILE I HAVE TO LISTEN TO HER RANT AND RADIAL ALL DAY LONG.



I have this friend of mine, Pete Pirelli, bit of a hubcap but he’s A1 if you know what

I mean. He used to go out with Michelin, do you know her, the sort with the big hoola hoops.





OH YES, SHE HAD A GRIP ON KELLY SPRINGFIELD, A REAL RETREAD…

BIT OF GOER … HIGH PROFILE TYPE.



Yes that’s her, a real spare.

She spoke to me the other day you know…



OH WHEELY!!!! WHAT’S THE SQUEAL THIS TIME?



Get outta my way - bloody Volvo driver!!!



OOW, HOW VULCANISING.



Likes to hug the road. Not a patch on the others though.



SHE STOPPED ME DEAD IN MY TRACKS, BROUGHT ME TO SCREECHING HALT.



How deflamatory can you get. I don’t think I will last the distance with her.

I prefer your type, you know, Bob Jane T-Mart type, that adds Firestone to a simple

Beaurepaire like me.





OOH WELL, MUST TAKE OFF NOW.

SEE YOU LATER, HAVE A GOODYEAR.



Ok Danny, just watch out for the Bridgestone ahead.

Don’t want to recap yourself do you.

How 'bout this one:

From Der Spiegel, 02/03/2004

PADERBORN, GERMANY Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt fed his constipated elephant Stefan, 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally let it fly, and suffocated the keeper under 200 pounds of poop! Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded on him. "The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground, where he struck his head on a rock and lay unconscious as the elephant continued to evacuate his bowels on top of him" said flabbergasted Paderborn police detective Erik Dern. 'with no one there to help him, he lay under all that dung for at least an hour before a watchman came along, and during that time he suffocated. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents where "s**t happens."

Just got a phone call from a girl I work with. I've been hassling her to get rid of the 1985 Lancer that she owns, and upgrade to a Mazda 3 or similar. Her and boyfriend have been umming and aaahing about getting the 3 - considering it a lot of money to pay cash for.

So, content of phone call is summarised as :

They bought a black leather pack RX8 instead.

Justified by the fact it will be financed, and not a $25k cash
outlay for the 3.

Bit of a leap - 1.5 ltr Lancer to a 1.3 ltr Wankel.

Guys check this out. My friend from Melbourne who owns C.O.M.E Racing (Chev Off-Road Marine Engines) has just sent me some photos of his race day at Calder. He's using a 383CI COME Engine, his best time at Calder:

156 mph (251.6 km/h) in 8.59 seconds

Hymee these are the times you used to get in your car isn't it. Hahahaha.

Back in the 1970's Izzy and his brother Sam were already using Nitrous Oxide, Turbos and Superchargers on your basic Torana, Monaro etc. They currently operate an engineering racing workshop in Melbourne. Iv'e attached these photos for your enjoyment.

Guess what he has also chosen the best colour for a car... yellow!

Hehehe.

I like the changes wrt to reliablity, and no launch control. I would like it if they had not TC as well.

Those GP cars brake at an amazing 5G!!! The top fuelers accelerate at an even more amazing 8G!

Cheers,
Hymee.
