Longbow Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Dam, i'm almost off. Better get out and get another contribution. Quote
lickedysplit_au Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Almost off?? Didn't realise I was even in the top 10 :D But I also just noticed that only 5 of us have photo confirmation..... Have already beaten that one but then a 4X4 ran over my GPS (I have witness's of that one too!) - I'll be back when I get a new one Troy Quote
Jon Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Sorry Longbow your off! I did this at Conway beach when I met up with Peter and the other Whitsunday guys (Cheers again for a great couple of days, Peter). 57.7k pretty poor really but ave no photo evidence of faster times. There should be a photo here? Quote

sinbad Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Its updated again, longbow you better get out there as your off the list Quote
Longbow Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 Dam....*Grabs kites, then looks outside and sees A. Its nighttime, and B. Theres no wind.* =( Quote
Peter Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 reading you last post, longbow, it just put a smile on my dial, you'll have to wait, don't you just hate that. Quote
Longbow Posted August 1, 2007 Report Posted August 1, 2007 In reality the night tine isn't what stopped me. *gets glowsticks and LED's* Quote
The Duke Posted August 16, 2007 Report Posted August 16, 2007 C'mon folks, I haven't got in a buggy for ages and I'm still in 6th spot ? Where's all the speed freaks out there ? We can't all be slack over winter you know Quote
Peter Posted August 16, 2007 Report Posted August 16, 2007 who wants to line up along conway beach and BLOW??? Quote
schultzie Posted August 17, 2007 Report Posted August 17, 2007 kinda cant beat times when there isnt any wind around to go that fast... Quote
Luke Posted August 17, 2007 Report Posted August 17, 2007 Haven't had the winds in Sydney to do it, only place for speedruns here is Stockton beach and that is offshore all winter. Soon as the Southerlys start hitting again we will aim at taking you down a notch or two Rocket Quote
The Duke Posted August 17, 2007 Report Posted August 17, 2007 So looks like its general concensus then. Roll on summer and let the games begin . Quote
Andy Mac Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 oi! - only managed three photos in my gallery (No more likely at present after a hard drive total meltdown) but one is clearly the GPS with 74.5kmh on it (Good for fourth or fifth - bit disappointing really, give me a race with tacking and upwind turns in it any day) ..... It was a while ago and certainly not a match for 98 (Go Nige !!! ), might actually have been on there before the thread started.... Quote
nigel Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 Andy!!! Come to Gairdner after the Adelaide fester in March!!! Should get better than that 70 something effort;) Quote
The Duke Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 Yep, the more the merryer roll on Easter and on to Gairdner . Cheers and Good Winds, Dukey Quote
sinbad Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 Hope you all have your bearings oiled for Sandy point. Hopefully some new record will be set. Quote
nigel Posted October 27, 2007 Report Posted October 27, 2007 New bearings and a clean up on the cards for today If I can get close to my record I'll be more than happy. If I beat it, then we'll have to adjust the list:D I am even taking the Friday off work, so I can dash down and get in a buggy run if conditions are good. See you all there! Quote
SuK Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Hope you guys had a blast and got some serious speed! Any girls out there in Oz going fast kite Buggying? Happy Kiting Su Quote
schultzie Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Well i got 53.7 on the mountain board. im certain however that i did get a faster run but the batteries went flat quite a shame really i believe nigel got over 70 as well. Quote
sinbad Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 Nigel needs to put the older but faster bearings in he has let the team down needed the 100 out of him. Quote
nigel Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 Hey that was done on the small sand spit at the inlet!!! You'd be lucky for it to be 300 metres long!! Yes hit 70kph, that was on the Monday, and could have gone quicker had there been no Blokarts in the way, nor cars, and more beach. Dukey did 62kph. I think the winds were a touch stronger on the Saturday, but left the GPS back at the house. Not sure what speed Dukey got on the Saturday, might be quicker than Mondays speed? I am saving the 100 for Gairdner!! You still in for a trip there Sinbad? Quote
sinbad Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 Gairdner booked my holidays already looking at maybe hiring a camper trailer to take up there $420 for 7 days http://www.coast2coastcampertrailerhire.com.au/campers.htm Flat top so can put the buggy's on. Quote
