I click my fingers at my 1 year old and he either; a) bites them or b) laughs at me and runs off to try and snap the tray off my DVD player. Hmmmm.

Thank you Inspector, i've never been able to follow rules, so i don't read them.

Can i ask everyone to let me through tonite as i turn into a pumpkin at midnight and pumpkins don't have hands or feet!

Anyone able to confirm that both the Vent. and Nascar servers are currently down? Just tried to connect and no joy. I can get my mail from my inspire account and I can get the inpire homepage so it's not something between me and inspire in general. Just those servers.

I can ping the Nascar server. I can NOT ping the Vent. server.

Post by **Inspector** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 4:30 pm

I'm talking with Inspire now - some servers have been moved apparently - I'll let you know as soon as I know something.

Post by **Inspector** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 5:58 pm

Ventrilo server is fixed - many thanks to Bruce (Ute Boy) who dropped everything and sorted it out on the spot for me.

A good time to remember that InSPire host these servers for us for free and there is more to it than just the bandwidth, they supply the hardware and the staff time to service and support it. It is not till they go down or get taken away that we really appreciate what we have.

Thanks InSPire

I'm all for the 100%. I need the time to get to the position I need. I know we have allot of old men running in this serious, so be sure to wear your Depends for this race.

If you don't know what Depends are; they are an adult diaper.

Danman · Post by **Danman** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 10:09 pm

Having my best race to as I was sitting in 14th and drafting well.
Still I've had a great 1st Season and cant wait till the next one starts.

Had to retire after completing 66 laps due to some pain in my right knee. Was a few laps down, but going OK.

You know, I think the pit starts at the first line not the second line

Thanks for that guys, great race. Makes a good change from the standard ones

Big cheers to TonyG and Snake/Typhoon for dragging me up a few positions

Good luck on the points guys.

disappointing finish to the season when got black flagged and could not clear it

watched rest of race on NRTV and congrats to all those who finished and well done to both Bazzil and Inspector on the close finish.

Had an enjoyable first season as a rookie and am looking forward to the next season

mikool · Post by **mikool** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 12:30 am

I could have done better. having no brakes when coming into last pit stop was not helpfull.

But over all a good race I guess...

Nice work Typhoon.

BAZZIL · Post by **BAZZIL** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 12:31 am

yeah that's a bit ghey getting DQ'd cause the flags don't clear.

Nobody knew that Coca-cola had a black flag issue :/

I got a flag and it cleared, no problem. Just went very slow and made sure no tyres then stopped.

LOng night for a sore butt.

Great effort Duds and Monsters..sorry was no help.

Wraith · Post by **Wraith** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 12:34 am

Well that almost wants me to give up smoking.......but not quite

Great race all and alot of fun, my apologies go out too Mikool for running up his rear end with 50 laps odd too go, if its any consolation my race turned to custard after that with a black flag and taken out near the end.

Good luck for the points all and I'll see ya all next season for a full run.

Wood · Post by **Wood** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 12:35 am

It was going great, Bazz Eagle and I were slowly but surely eating into Inspectors lead over the period of 120laps or so, but Just as we close to within 2 seconds I perform a piece of medicore evasive action. Was a bit of an anti-climax, I was waiting nearly 2 hours for the three way showdown between Bazz, Inspector, and me. Do'h

Turned out to be a hectic final five laps as I fought to hold onto forth.

Slightly sore wrist, but great fun

Edit: congrats to Odie for the championship, ya just squeek in ya bastard
