Default The latest Speed Reduction Devices.

How's this for excellent speed control. I don't know about you, but this would really slow me down. Apparently motorists try to straddle the giant pot holes.

This is actually a new idea for controlling vehicle speed through certain areas. Apparently it is in use and judging from the pictures, possibly in the U.K. It's much cheaper than speed cameras and works a lot more efficiently too.











It's pretty clever, especially when moved around to different locations each day.

Isn't art wonderful?

This reminds me of one of the "Ripping Yarns" where they each had less than the other.

Hi Wazza, while we are talking about nothing, how about posting some pics of new build? Be great to see your progress.

Regards.

Not much to see as yet...
Got a lot of "bits" ready to go on to it, but at the moment it's basically a body on a powdercoated chassis, with doors hung/boot fitted.

Brand spanking new Ls7 and beefed up Mal Wood special Tremec T56 , beeeeeeutiful knock off halibrand wheels, overriders,lights, etc. etc. all sitting with dust covers over them waiting to pounce.

Current problem on my mind is the other baby.

The red racer decided to hang a leg out of bed at Morgan Park raceway a couple of weeks ago, and I'm currently making some decisions as to whether I rebuild the Ford....again....or look for a written off HSV with a 6 litre , and 6 speed.

I really think that's what I'll end up with.

Just gotta get my head around the idea of two "Dark siders" sitting next to each other in the shed.

Ls2 /good 6 speed box/ and a Supercharger....sounds like a wicked race combo.

I'll let you know soon.

Anyone know of a written off HSV looking for a new home ??

Cheers,
Warren.

O.K. Whose the smart a....e that knocked off my pics. They were definately there yesterday.

I've got to take the missus shopping RIGHT NOW, so I will play with the pics when I get home. I had to change their format from BMP into JPEG files so it might have something to do with that conversion.

They are really worth seeing so I'll try real hard to have them displayed.

Sorry about that.

Fixed them up. The three pics are now showing so who ever knocked them off initially, please leave these ones alone.

Baz

Default Pot holes

And I thought the Victorian Government was just slack!!! When they're really deliberately leaving all those REAL Pot holes in our roads to slow us down and save lives
