Then you might enjoy this (sorry, way off-topic but it's fun!)
The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, they fell sound asleep. Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, "Kemo Sabi, look towards sky, what you see?" The Lone Ranger replies, "I see millions of stars." "What that tell you?" asked Tonto. The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute, then says, "Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me Saturn is in Leo. Time wise it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What's it tell you, Tonto?" Tonto is silent for a moment, then says, "Kemo Sabi, you dumb cowboy. It tell me someone has stolen tent." |

The Lone Ranger and Tonto were at the bar drinking, when in walks a cowboy who yells, "Who's white horse it that outside?"
The Lone Ranger finishes off his whiskey, slams down the glass, turns around and says, "It's my horse. Why do you want to know?" The cowboy looks at him and says, "Well, your horse is standing out there in the sun and he don't look too good." The Lone Ranger and Tonto run outside and they see that Silver is in bad shape, suffering from heat exhaustion. The Loan Ranger moves his horse into the shade and gets a bucket of water. He then pours some of the water over the horse and gives the rest to Silver to drink.It is then he notices that there isn't a breeze so he asks Tonto if he would start running around Silver to get some air flowing and perhaps cool him down. Being a faithful friend, Tonto starts running around Silver. The Lone Ranger stands there for a bit then realizes there is not much more he can do, so he goes back into the bar and orders another whiskey. After a bit a cowboy walks in and says, "Who's white horse is that outside?" Slowly the Lone Ranger turns around and says, "That is my horse, what is wrong with him now?" "Nothing," replies the cowboy, "I just wanted to let you know that you left your Injun running." |

Nice to have some fun in here, but the distance off topic is about the same as from here to Auckland! |

Just read this on the nz motor racing website:
Entries are pouring in for the 2012 ASKO Appliances South Island Endurance Series. Mataura’s Inky Tulloch is planning on running his new generation NZV8 Commodore as a shakedown for the summer BNT V8s Series and will be the first ever racing for this new class. The final will be part of the V8 SuperTourer enduro finale meeting in Christchurch in late November. The first round gets underway at Teretonga Park (Invercargill) - Saturday 29th September 2012. Which leads me to these questions: Will Inky be racing at the V8 Supertourer round at Ruapuna? Is he obligated to if he's raced in the earlier rounds? I just can't see Motorsport NZ wanting one of their new V8's at the same meet as the Supertourers. |

why would it be an issue? the st supporters claim st meetings are the best thing since sliced bread.. and no doubt "NZV8" will be plastered all over the Tulloch Commodore.. so what's the problem?
in other news..... NEW ENGINE OPTION FOR NZV8 HOLDENS The Board of NZV8s has today outlined changes that will make it significantly cheaper and more competitive to race a current schedule TL Holden Commodore in the upcoming NZV8 Gold Star Championship. Th...e Chev LS3 engine has been approved as a replacement powerplant for the current aging engine. Last season many competitors were frustrated by failing engines as parts became increasingly difficult to source and the costs of maintaining a competitive engine increased. The option of the LS3 engine will give the Holden a much needed power boost at a fraction of the cost of upgrading an existing engine. The engines which are available as a ready to race package are likely to cost around $10,000 which is a significant saving on building or refreshing a current engine. The engine is the same powerplant as powers the new generation NZV8 Holden Commodore. |

surely the LS3 and coyote would be a good move for both challenge cup and nzv8 class 2..if these engines are cheaper and more reliable then it can only be win win ....i think......it still will cost competitors in both series plenty to rebuild those old boat anchors and i guess the old cars will still have a place for a few years to come as feeder classes....i gather the installation is not super tricky so why not......

hmm not much talk before Speedshow?
this weekend.. will Edgell reveal he will race a NZV8 Hyundai during the summer and an International Motorsport Holden during the winter? will there be a "drift battle" between the Tulloch VE and Fanga Dan VZ? will Foggy be presented with a dog with an extra body part? will we see a Giltrap Audi NZV8 or ST? will both sides kiss and make up? |
