hey all,

my name is dan,

as you could probably see with my user name i am a ford man, but am a car enthusiast of all brands and makes.

i go to tafe with Leanne, and am the events coordinator for the F.T.F Car Club of N.S.W. Inc. and also the Coordinator of the Cruise For Cancer.

I have met some of the CC members at Marques In the Park last year and at parties that leanne and aaron have had.

im a chef by trade and im also studying web design. I drive a BA XR8 that has been mildly worked to the tune of 252 rwkw with the hard engine and tuning done at BTA Motorsports and the rest (bilstien shocks, slotted brakes, whiteline sway bars kings/lovells sl springs cai and bodykit done by me)

the best it has done at WSID is 13.7sec @107mph with wheelspin.

well hope to chat soon.

cheers

as promised, some pics of the xr8

Hi Dan,

Welcome to the forums. We welcome all nice people, even if they do drive Fords. :D Seriously though, it's nice to see you here, and we appreciate what you did for Wazza. Another great bunch of people. :)

Hello, Dan,

Welcome to the forums. Anybody is welcome who shares an affection for Commodores. But beware, you may be the target of some good-natured ribbing. But it's all in fun.

Sounds like you have a pretty quick machine there. If you can get your hands on some slick tyres, you may knock a second off your time at the drags. An acquaintance has a Commodore with a bit over 250 rwkw and a slightly shorter diff ratio and he pulled a 12.4 (or thereabouts) on slicks when his previous best was 13.5 or something on road tyres.

It's all about grip.

Hey Dan. Welcome. It's a shame you're a ford man but thanks for the tribute to Wazza. Watch the clutch! See Ben's pics of the damage. It doesn't matter what you drive so long as you love it.

Hello and welcome to you Dan :)
I see you drive a *cough, cough cough* ...... I AM sorry. I just can't seem to say THAT word!! It seems to get it stuck in my throat......:lmao:

Seriously though, my sincerest thanks to you and your club members for honouring our dear Wazza. He is deeply missed.

Enjoy the friendly banter that I'm sure will be coming your way!!! :D

Karen.

Welcome dan, Good to see a member of the other camp coming over for the party.

It's good to see that you have gone with the BA (even if it dose have 3 too many cams....) and not the AU. Ha ha ha ha ah ah ha. But seriously, it sounds like your building yourself quite a weapon there & I'd love to see it in action one day.
