DATSUN THE BUNNY By Lobster

Once upon a time, there was a bunny named Datsun.
He was a cute little bunny. He had a cotton tail and a shiney pink nose. Anyway. One day Datsun was walking down the highway when he decided he should see what was on the other side of the highway. Datsun looked right and left and right again and then crossed the road.
Unfortunately Datsun had never been taught any road sense so he crossed even though there was a mac truck driving towards him at 115kmh
Datsun was split into 3 pieces almost instantly by the grill of the mac truck.
One piece of him hit the ground. One piece stuck to the wheel and spun around 3 times before being flung off into the dirt next to the highway.
The final piece whizzed into the air conditioning duct.

Sunny was a simple man. He had no other love greater in his life than driving. Driving his truck.
Sunny was a truck driver.
Sunny had had a long haul... It was December and he was driving down the Hume highway with the windows open to cool him down. But it was getting in the high 30's now... The windows just wouldn't cut it anymore...
Sunny wound up the windows and flipped on the Air Conditioning...

*What happens next is too graphic to go into detail*

must be a big bunny if it can get hit by the grill of a truck...

you tell stories very well... you should right a book
Not so nice that datsun came to a bad end though. Hopefully he was the only thing called datsun that crashed in his reality....

I sold my commodore for $7000 to a work mate who owned a datsun 1200 coupe and we laughed and joked about doing his datsun 1200 up, I toyed with the idea about buying it and putting in a CA18DET but thought it would have cost too much, I was already chasing a VX supercarged V6 commodore after all so I left him with my old car and went on with my business.
7 months later after searching high and low for a V6 supercharged VX I finally gave up and began thinking about the old datto again, I gave in to my weird ideas of a quick little datto to travel to work and back, and with the petrol prices going up and up and up I was convinced to buy the datto, now I have an exrace A15 engine with twin weber carbs, vacuum assisted brakes, new steering wheel and 13 X 6.5 mags, and I got a VX supercharged V6 too in the end

Not long after I got my little 72 DATSUN 1200 coupe I got the A14 in and had started driving her back an forth to work. One morning when I got to town sitting ata a red light ,I noticed I was running close with the clock. So when the light turned green I was ready to go. there was a full size chevy truck (V8) in front of me .& he was not in a hurry at all so when we got to the double lanes I gased on it and jumped in the outside lane.He seen me coming so he decided to do the same. you could hear the v8 pipes roaring .I got up beside him on the double lanes and looked at the speeometer, we wheredoing over 100 mph. I looked over at him & he was smilingas we where side by side. Then I put the her in 5th gear . I started smiling as I pulled away from him. That just made my day!!!

Found this on the net, thought id share

You might be addicted to racing if:

You think the primary purpose of wings is to PREVENT flight.
You take your helmet along when you go to a car dealership for a test-drive.
Every time you go to the supermarket you feel compelled to beat your previous best time.
When something falls off of your car, you wonder how much weight you just saved.
When you hear 'overcooked it', instead of food you think 'off the track.'
You change engine oil every other week. You check tire pressures every other day.
You thoroughly enjoy showing the tailgater behind how to really drive around a highway off-ramp.
You once had an argument with your wife over whether you should pay the mortgage on time or get those new heads while they were on sale.
You push your trolley through a proper line in the supermarket.
You've paid 95 cents a litre for Optimax without complaining.
You bought a tow vehicle instead of braces for your kid.
You and your wife go house hunting and you never actually get inside the house because you're checking out the garage for 240v outlets.
You sit in your race car in a dark garage and make car noises and shift and practice your heel and toe, while waiting for your motor to get back from the mechanics
Your wife doesn't understand why you need three sets of tyres for your car.
Your garage holds more cars than your house has bedrooms.
You have car parts in your cubicle at work.
You're registered for wedding gifts at Revolution Racegear.
Your Christmas list begins with another set of S02's and a cold air kit and your 'significant other' knows what these are.
Your home library consists of auto parts catalogs, books written by F1
drivers, anything about Peter Brock, and 400 car magazines.
People know you by your car number or your "offs" -- "Oh, you were the one stuck in the mud at Turn 4 on Sandown last weekend!".
Your first date involves asking her to crew for you.
Your friends have never seen your hair actually combed. They only know it's color as "greasy."
Your family brings the couch into the garage so they can spend some time with you.
You complain when cars in front of you on highway off-ramps don't stay on the line, causing your exit speed to drop.
A neighbor asks if you have any oil, to which you query, "Synthetic or dino?" and they reply, "Vegetable"
You refer to the corner down the street from your house as "Turn One."
You always late apex the intersection and try to pass a few cars coming out.
You can't stand anyone telling others how to drive. Of course, you are the best.
You can't stand understeer.
You will gladly pay up to $80 for 5 litres of engine oil.
You hate long distance driving vacations, but you will gladly drive 500k's to the race track.
You think that traction control and ABS are for those who can't drive.
You save broken car parts as " mementos".
You've tried synthetic oil and racing gas in your lawn mower.
You've tweaked your riding lawn mower trying to improve its cornering ability.
Instead of pictures in your wallet, you have timeslips.
You would choose a rollbar over air conditioning if it were an option.
You enjoy driving through wet, empty parking lots using the handbrake to turn.
You love freezing cold days, because you know the air is "more dense".
You stop 100 metres short of the traffic lights, and creep forward to avoid "heatsoak" in your intercooler.
You spend more on insurance premiums than on food.
You have racing shops programmed into your mobile.
You own five cars and only one of them is street legal.
You know the "racing line" of every turn in your daily commute.
You've slalomed in a construction zone, and counted your penalty time in the rearview mirror afterwards.
After you tell your wife where you'd like to go on your vacation she answers: "Why, is there a race there?"

My last datsun was a 1200 ute with rust from wheel to wheel in the sills an checker plate to cover it. a previous owen was amazed it was still going he had rolled it blowen 4th gear an sized the engine he recons it sat on 150km/h from newcastle to scone (2hrs). But some one since then had bogged the roof so it looked quite normal an replaced the engine an gear box. the diff had a pretty sick noise in it to.
any way it would still hold 140km/h for me an it lasted me 2 years(temp gauge worked only in the last 6 months) of constant abuse i estermate it did around 15,000 km when i had it cos the speedo was inaccurate.
i had 2 minor traffic accidents in it the last bent a tie rod or some thing so you had to drive while turning the wheel abit. it also boiled a few time i think
one particular time i was having a bit of a bash round the bush an went down a 4m long dip with water in it. ripping through i found out it was a little deeper than i thought in fact when it finally got bogged the water started coming in the doors when i returned with a mates HQ to pull it out the water was touching the bottom of the seats i drove the car for a year after that. DATSUN ARE STRONG. well that one was. its now in sydney still going strong i guess
