Stopped at the Vietnamese Soup pop up truck at Flinders. then back via Arthurs seat. Only disappointing part of the day was coming home via The Esplanade between Safety Beach and Mt Martha. Yep, same old problem push bikes. Cars banked up behind them because of the double lines. 20 to 25 k.... Aggro happening from cars behind the cars that were afraid to break the law and cross double lines. I will never understand why they would choose to take that road for a ride. Please enlighten me bike riders..... The governments have spent millions on bike paths and designated lanes on roads, for them.... but no, why use them, when you can cause chaos on other roads. There are certain roads that push bikes should not be allowed on...and this is one. You would have to wonder about the mentality of these people. Sorry that was a cross between this thread and the Vent thread Great minds think alike... wifey, doggo and I rolled into Flinders for a late lunch at the cafe across the road today. Sure was a nice day out. Bike tracks on weekends are full of tourists and kids and dogs going in random directions. If you want to get some distance under your bike wheels and maintain a decent pace, the road is preferable. That said, I don’t get the riders who sit 2 or 3 across the lane. I’d rather stay skinny as possible on the left side making plenty of room for cars to avoid me. Niko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoHeadsTas Posted 8November, 2018 Report Share Posted 8November, 2018 Wife bringing her new 981 on the boat tonight, in good company with a red GT3 - looks like a 991, ACT car. Anyone here? Tips, Niko and Troubleshooter 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Phil Posted 8November, 2018 Report Share Posted 8November, 2018 Yep the GT3 would be @NBTBRV8 . He is from Tassie and bought a GT3 from the ACT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike-S Posted 8November, 2018 Report Share Posted 8November, 2018 Pretty sure I saw that GT3 earlier today near Brighton, nice looking car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBTBRV8 Posted 9November, 2018 Report Share Posted 9November, 2018 Yep, that was me. I collected it from Brighton yesterday where I had it shipped too, freakishly ran in to Mrs TwoHeadsTas this morning whilst waiting to get off the boat.

For 25 years I lived not 1 km as the crow flies from where @NBTBRV8and his family lived, and I was a pretty regular visitor in my MG Car Club days - I did wonder about the RV8 in the user name....

Tips Posted 11November, 2018 Report Share Posted 11November, 2018 Disappointed I missed it @Typ9xxI think I spotted that red 997 heading on to pennant hills road close to lunch. Made me realise I do like a red G body but seem to ignor modern Porsche’s in red. It looked great and might have changed my mind. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99TS3 Posted 11November, 2018 Report Share Posted 11November, 2018 Fantastic weather this weekend in Adelaide so had the 993 out on Friday - Sunday. Few minutes into our drive and we bumped into a 997.2 GT3 RS which looked and sounded amazing. I let my son have a ‘drive’ before we put the car away for another weekend.

The 60'ft times were in the 1.7-1.8 range which is pretty good for street rubber on 19 inch wheels, it gets out of the hole pretty well. It either needs better air, a diet, more power or a great hook up to cut a 10 I think! Went back out with the TT and cut a 10.7 which was nice! That's a cracking 993 above! dominicxu1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back out at WSID with a mate today with his TT as well. Got it down to a 10.60 Both ran into the 10s, these are fantastic bits of kit.

TwoHeadsTas Posted 18November, 2018 Report Share Posted 18November, 2018 Mrs let me take her new 981 on our club EMR yesterday while she went off doing other things (like being chauffeured around in a friends DB6!!). Amongst other roads, we did the Holwell Targa Tasmania stage. Faark am I impressed with a standard 981 PDK Boxster!!!! Reckon this things got more go out of the 2.7 than the 3.2 in her 987 S. and that PDK is so sweet!!!! Must admit I had all the performance I needed without even resorting to Sport plus!!! Want to try this again when I've done a few more K's in it, and we get some new rubber!!! Tips and Troubleshooter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
