Yes the rotary IS my favourite motor.

Anyway, apparently I got off to a bad start with one member so I'll leave it at that.

Thanks for all your warm welcomes and I look forward to chatting with you all.

ps. YRLOSS...still waiting for pics of your 1600

well it's good to hear the rotary is not your favourite!

so what was it? - a classic car show, sprint event or what?

was everyone as impressed as you thought they'd be?

Nah, no contest. Just showing off while I had the chance

OK mate, I'll give you the beneifit of the doubt, but I've never seen a burnout contest at any historic event I've been to.

Hey, don't take everything so seriously, I was just havin a joke.

The burnout in my avatar was done on a public road here in Orange that is also an old race track called Gnoo Blas, made famous by Sir Jack Brabham in his hey day. Once a year this road gets shut down for a Classic Car day, when we have the run of the track to do what we want with.

I've got a gold licence and a (near) perfect driving record (everyone's allowed one mistake...going 78 when I thought I was in an 80 zone).

Hope that clears up any misunderstanding of who you think I am

btw, would you be upset if I assumed that your avatar was illegal drifting on public road(much more dangerous than a static burnout) without knowing what is REALLY happening??

Lighten up ok, I'm here to talk about my favourite type of car not upset anyone

no I'm not a cop. I'm just one of the guys that gets tarred with the same brush as you by the cops. So I had to stop driving my Datsun everyday. Worked out for the best though, as it let me do all those things to make it a better car on the track that are simply out of the question for a car that you drive on the road every day.

but hey, if you are happy being a hoon, then good luck to ya. You'll need it with the laws they have these days. Hopefully you'll grow out of it before you lose your car

Why a rotary?

Well I can't really answer that here

If you wanna know then go drive a 500hp rotor and you'll understand

Plus that sweet sweet sound

And regarding the avatar....Are you a cop???

I've got a rotary question - why?
btw, nice avatar - burnout on a public road hey?

Thanks, its a bit rough but not too bad.

My ute's purple and its a 1974 model and the mags are 15in auscars.
Its a pretty standard A15 at the mo. just a cold air intake and extractors, 2.25 inch exhaust

But plans are for a weber for now. Then suck through turbo later on. 5 speed, and I have a set of white 16in skyline GTS wheels, but i need to make some longer studs up

your ute is nice!,
is it black? what other things have you done to it?
what are the mags?
year mod?

p.s A15 bet it goes pretty hard
