Going for a ride ....

Post by Ben »

Reading a few threads I realise that I know many cars but haven't really experienced them as a passenger .. I think it would be cool at the next meet to spend sometime having 'rides' in other models of car ..... but not scary as hell rides please ...

Great idea Ben, I'd love that from both perspectives. I think Dave did really well as a passenger in mine. Well up to the point he noticed the ABS and 4WD lights on the dash and I confirmed that they weren't on :grin:

:-D I keep thinking I must come out for a ride - but then usually time and circumstance mean it isn't going to happen.

So I suppose for the next meet and if we can do it with prova we need to make a ride list for each type of car and say first come first served.

I really want to go out in your's and Dan's and wouldn't mind experiencing a 200 SX too ...

sounds like a cracking idea to me. You can talk as much as you like about what your car does but that doesn`t compare to seeing it with your own eyes.

Have had a ride at Sculthorpe in Ben's skyline which was cool, interesting to see the difference to an RX. Would love to experience one of the mega horsepower cars too :)

Cheers,
Alex

Dan's car
Stu's car

Rob are you going to turn the boost up and take a 380 run ? ... if so I'd like to see what a 380 bhp Evo goes like.
