    go for the package deal, change the air in the head and get the nuts tightened, 25% discount. :)
    just wondering aloud, haven't caught up with fiat club for several months now (no fiat to drive :( ) but i think i've seen that one before...

    ...ah, just went fishing through some pics, it was at Bathurst a couple weeks ago for FIAT Al Monte. :) apparently it did the 2,500km round trip AND sprints under it's own steam, didn't know a fiat could go that far.

    the X in question:
    at Carnevale on saturday
    hangin it round a bathurst corner
    scooting along (with P's)
    posing at Monte
    line-up front

    just saw the CLUB199 348 TS. :) had to go get a pizza to get me through a hard night of coding, and it was sitting outside the aussie pizza house on o connell st.

    at first i thought it was the owner trying to say his car was part of a club than can go 200mph... a-huh, but then i noticed the posters around the walls of the pizza shop for www.club199.com, a venue on north terrace.

    wonder if the owner's affiliated with the pizza house there as well...? if so i've probably paid for half his ferrari. :(

    Yep
    I think he is. I always see that 348 parked outside the Aussie Pizza house on Hutt Street and west Tce. I have been told that he is associated with the pizza house, either that or he just likes pizza

    ah, perhaps the Durango might be more appropriate to cruise in with my droogs, belting out some Ludwig van, up and down the boulevard milk bars lookin for a bit of the ol' in-n-out. :D

    i remember getting bored one night and finding my way to a site where you can make lego characters, well....

    i think i'm starved for conversation, spent the past week werking from home. the only words i recall uttering out loud to another human are "thanks", "hungover", or "sober", interjected at the appropriate moment in response to something the checkout chick's said/asked ("here you go", "how are you?") as i'm purchasing my caffiene/steak related items.

    mmm, staek. must be lunch time. :)

    I guess this is the official Adelaide thread, so I thought id say Gday. nice day here on nth terrace, a little warm but nothing a swim in the Torrens cant fix, just a dash to the weir and back. Good fun in a lunch hour.

    love the yellow of the gallardo mr mhh, i had a gander one evening when it was parked at stateswim on the parade. (i assume it was yours). dont worry i diddnt pull the camera phone out. :) just had to have a lie down.

    Cheers
    Pete.

    The torrens is closed to all forms of traffic from last week because of blue green algae, so if u want to swim please remember to wear a condom at the very least, it is that bad that the ducks have left the building.

    more than likely you can pick one up floating by. torrens frangers are like buses.
    used to wonder on a daily basis. until recently i was living in north adelaide near welli square, and werking on north terrace. before they "fixed" it a year ago, i used to get airborne over that gap. what a great thrill to start the day, for 15 seconds i could pretend i was Bo and my chick was Daisy. :D

    wow, sounds like fun. :( did you count each side of the bolt and divide by 6?

    manage to get attacked by those giant duck/geese/pelican things that inhabit the area? scare the crap outta ya when you're just sitting there eating a yiros and a 200lb bird comes over looking to open a can o whoop ass.

    So I saw the yellow Gallardo driving around on Sat am I think, but I didn't see any of you out at the Mallala track.... where were you??

    We did a night race which was novel, the commentator said it was just like Le-Mans, but I think that's stretching it!

    apart from werking like 18 hours a day for the last couple weeks, my primary transportation at the moment is an air-cooled beetle, great fun for quick jaunts around town, but not cruises into the countryside or up hills. once my F-car (Fiat :) ) is back terrorizing the streets, i won't miss a chance to go for a hoon and watch some ferrari's in their element.
