I believe two tts listed on registration.
I just can't see anyone listing S30 as caged

Thanks, Have you heard of pedantism Kev?

Cars with selected numbers are usually caged.

You guys did an awesome job organising this years event.

Guys lets just remember "it not a race meet". Who cares who is faster than who on the day (as long as I'm still faster than the Capri).

Put me in with any group next year, call my name out last, see if I care. The biggest prize is the grin on the face and the bollock spoken after the event.

Cheers,javascript:emoticon(':D')Karl

Thanks Karl, prizegiving is intended to be a wee bit light hearted and a nice way to teminate the meet.

Oh Karl
Have you not figured out yet that everything is a race !! Haha Yep there is always room for improvement and any and all help is gratefully received

Mate, It's only a race when you know you have a shot.

Until then you piss about pretending you don't care. Say the right things and secretly build something faster.

Hmmm, my plan is just to go faster than I did last year. Need to go twice as fast in 2015!

That might call for a couple of turbos then

Karl thanks for the input. The smiling faces and the grins, that come back to the pits each time are worth all the effort. You guys have a passion, and are able to participate in your dreams, so with the Z Club at Taupo its all about enjoying the time, and if you do well (good times) well that's just a bonus.

Excellent editing job, like the inset touches at the end, we should have you make a zed track day promo video for next year. What editing software did you use?

I use adobe premiere elements to do the editing

A part of this clip shows my editing setup:

No problem to make a 2-3 minute promo, we would need a person to do the voice over and possibly a presenter? Hold auditions haha?

Very slick editing Steve. I think it would be a great idea, if you wouldn't mind doing a promo vid for next year. Do you still have your 300?

That would be great, if you wouldn't mind!

Oh, that is sad. Oh well, 17 years is a good run with the old girl. Did she end up coming back to someone who'll join the club? At least you'll still get to do track days with the club.
