Convention 2007 More comraderie from Convention
« on: April 18, 2007, 10:38:21 PM »
This was just another small story I thought should be told! Harry (Black 76) was just about to put his other wheels with street drag tyres on when he realised that he had not bought along his rallye wheel nuts! He didnt have his Rallye nuts because  he had alloy aftermarket wheels! Guess what...I'd forgot my nuts for my rallye wheels for the burnout! So I also had to put my burnout on hold!
So Harry and Daniella took off in the hire car in search of 7/16 nuts on an easter Sunday! Supercheap had only 1 set of 5 nuts! so he had to find some more. Off they went again and somehow???? found 4 sets, after an hour or so of looking around!
Harry arrived back...we both put our wheels on and OFF we went! Harry posted the 2nd quickest (I think?) time of the day and I managed to make some smoke! Happy days all round!

good to here...whats the bet if you couldnt get any nuts another c3 owner not racing would have taken the nuts off...(non pun intended)

From what I have heard about how everyone pulled together up there I reckon your right nifty.

Thanks for that 69DR.  Would have been a big loss if we didn't see that burn out.

Nifty, I am very sorry to inform you that you are mistaken - hence the driving around for several hours to find wheel nuts...
