It was good to meet some more LOCers and put some faces to those screen names! Toni the workshop and all the kit looks fantastic B) I will be back soon.

Dazz, I hope you enjoyed the SCIS300, :winky:

Hopefully we will have better weather for the the forthcoming LOC knowledge day.

Mat, I will let you know when the stopping power is fitted.

Good to meet you yesterday matey :D And your lex is looking and sounding great if you dont mind me saying and looks very quick on the road, look forward to seeing you both again :D

Was a great day, thanks to tony and the guys for this i had a great time!

Was good to actually get along to a meet as well, think this has been my first meet outside of JAE!!!!!

And now after seeing everyone else's cars i have the modding bug again, im trying to hold back and stop with the mods on the lex but seeing everyone's cars doesn't help the situation may have to bring Sarah along to the next meet as she controls the spending on the car :winky:

Jason :P

[johnboy]

Thought id posted on here since the meet

Anyway, was a great meet, a big thank you to Tony and co. for great hospitality.

It was great to see so many cars despite the weather.

It was great to see so many from LOC too, and catch up with everyone again.

Thanks again Tony for a great day, and roll on the LOC knowledge day.

Another Video of Mat's Monster (this one safe for work)

He now has his own personal hole in the ozone layer

[aztecbandit1]

Got to say mats control of the car is amazing to see close up and added to a great day :D still very suprised at Bazza's starlet never realised how much power that little car has! i've been looking at them since i came back from the meet :D

[Y2Kanjar]

i love that monster car, as as you say the control is the best.

Question , how do you do that?

[aaronabbott]

i love that monster car, as as you say the control is the best.

Question , how do you do that?

it helps to have a fair bit of power for a start at the rear wheels, and a quick foot off the clutch and on to the throttle and brakes measuring it out between the two,not enough and you'll stall too much and you'll probably just fly off into the distance,matts control in the vid is outstanding

[DJ Wozza]

I'm guesing an independantly controlled front brake set up, or ridiculous power.

A friend of mine used to own an old Ford Zepher Mk1 with a big block chevy lump

(with Supercharger). He had a small lever in the cabin where he could control the

front brakes to the point of lock-up for doing controlled burnouts on the drag strip.

[Y2Kanjar]

i shouldn't try it at home then lol

not that i would

[aaronabbott]

not that i would

the 1st time we went to the santa pod we used to practice with the front wheels on my friends tarmack'd drive and the rears on his mums wet grass,lets just say she was'nt very happy after seeing huge marks in her grass when she got back

[Monster-Mat]

nothing special, just brake and throttle control, and steering inputs to change direction

[Y2Kanjar]

You make it sound so easy.....
