Long Wheel Base

I always loved the corolla, then toyota went all soft and made them a lot less boy racer and a lot more granny/grandpa. But the latest one is back to their old MO and it looks awesome. I have never actually seen one of these ones in real life, think they must be very scarce here in RSA.

Stay safe, G.

Seeing how long everything is taking, I can imagine my in laws will also take 9 months easily. So frustrating.

Glad this thread is still here.

Closed for 2021? Possibly that was for 2020 and the site hasn't been updated. It is usually a lot closer to the event.

So stages 1 and 2 are both giving 50 points to the winner for points classification but are both uphill finishes so there isn't the 3km rule and the 3" protocol for mass sprints won't be applied. GC guys are all going to want to be right up there with the sprinters till the line so to speak. Going to be chaotic but fun.

We trying to sell my in laws house. My Father in law passed away in Feb and we need to get my Mom in law out asap. The house is in his name, what a schlep wrt the estate etc. Anyway, to save costs we opted for 3%.com and as hard as they trying, there is a lot they lack that an agent often doesn't. My BIL has now listed it and he will try get it sold privately.

Got my favorite sports car in LEGO form for Fathers day. The Nissan GT-R. Built it with my boys almost straight away. I'll take some pics and post here this week. It now sits on the shelf at home in the office along with all my other GT-R models.

Merc do what Lewis wants, even if it means loosing the race. He says jump and they all say how high. Bottas seems to finally be getting irritated. For a Fin to get worked up it must take a lot, they some of the most chilled people around.

Remember the days Ferrari used to break down on the lap from the pits to the start before the race. At least we are passed that????

So what was up with merc swopping the chassis'?

Is it private land? Are there signs asking for bikes to stay off?

I prefer: Gathering and Dust.

I watched the race from start to finish without missing a single second and I still don't know who finished from 5th to last. Max and Red Bull are making F1 fun again. Bottas was de moer in with his team, LOL that radio message swearing at his team was classic. I am a Ferrari supporter but did they even start the race? Sjoe that was poor form, I thought they were heading back up again. If it were not for the Bahrain and Baku incidents, Max would be sitting very comfy on top of the standings. What was up with who ever chooses what camera to show during the podium, they kept showing Jos when Ms Piquet was right there in a short dress.

As fun as it was to watch, someone could have been seriously hurt. Did you see Lando's interview thing on it? Had Max veered off to his left instead of the right, he would have hit a concrete barrier that was stuck out at an angle. The result would probably have been a lot worse than him kicking the tyre and everyone making funny memes. EDIT: I will try find the article with the pics but here is something in the mean time. https://www.gpblog.com/en/videos/86435/norris-on-verstappen-crash-could-have-been-a-lot-worse.html

Argh I am having problems as we speak. Been having issues for about 2 weeks now. Went for ages with no issues but all of a sudden my extender(in the lounge) is playing up. It is connecting itself to the router no problem but then when our phones hook onto it we just get an exclamation next to wifi picture and of course no network. If I go closer to the router and connect to it, there is no issues but the lounge is too far from that for decent signal. Need to look into it this weekend because the kids like to watch youtube every now and then and all they get now is a big "no network" picture on the tv.

I think all the RR will happen this weekend.

Rohan Dennis also didn't approve iicr, Or was it their kit he was upset about?

Tapering......

Yip I remember that place. In fact it came up in a thread some time back. I remember being told I could ride any more because I kept riding too fast. I kept saying everyone else is slow. Can't remember the name though.

Please correct for my OCD.

Race weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! France, seeing lots of memes about it being boring but lets see, this season has produced a few interesting races that we thought would be a bit bland.

I had a caddy, man I miss that thing. I kept it for a while after I bought my navara but it just stood so got rid of it. I would like to get another one someday. Mine was heavily modded and went like a bat out of hell, well so I thought. My toppie used to have one of those old kombis, he had the double cab version. He had modified the back seats so that it could turn into bunk beds. He sold it to his cousin who put a Porsche engine in and spent big money on it. Not even sure he still has it. My Dad never regretted selling it but missed it so bought himself a new caravelle 2 years back as his retirement present.

Whats with the bottles in the last ad?
