good to hear that it was only a rebuild needed a boaster is about $200 and the part number is vh 44. this is a small boaster used on most cars of that vintage to help them stop

yeah that waterfall coming out of my dash was mostly because of my baja kit being a long nose which scooped up the water and forced it through the seals. Yours has the bonnet opening higher up and back and like Mr and Mrs M's there was very little water at all in it, it just flowed over.
By the way the cars there ranged from mild (me) to wild (everyone else) and I drove accordingly, I didn't even bother trying to go through the bathtub as you can see me going round it in one of the newest pics. However I was the first one throught the mudhole! FLAT OUT!

just do a runner eriinn, when you get older you'll realise that making your parents angry is'nt the be all and end all of life as it seems, just make sure you leave a note and cop it sweet when you come home.... i can see where your olds are coming from though, i'd probably feel the same if i was in your dads shoes, valla is a long drive and nick is in-experienced. imagine if your dad lost you in a crash because he told you that you could go against his better judgement?? that'd suck.....whatever your decision, take responsibility of your actions, but yeah, i say do a runner.............but dont blame me when he sells you into slavery as revenge when you come home, i'm just an anonymous internet vagrant posting bad advice on forums heheheehhe:P:blush sh@t!!you are legal arent you?? hahaha😉
nick drive the baja, I reackon i could have gotten the lowered L bug around the majority of the track just as fast or faster, (except for the mud holes!!!!) and one bump corner, which witht he right line would have been ok.

the bath tub started off fairly shallow, almost nothing, then by the 2nd corner (where in the pics you can see a manx bogged) it was a couple of feet and was dug out by everyone it was also clay and real squishy. the other mudhole was deep at first untill i hit it! nah it was easy you just lined up and floored it and went straight through. Some baja's looked like they were sinking and dissapearing in it though.

but there was no pressure, if you didn't think your car was capable you could go round, or on the edge, i did several time to throw more mud.

going round sounds good......the seals on my doors are faily shot and mud pouring in isnt something i really want lol.

Damn! Frenzix took mine!
But seriously. I've got a goodie! But only if you're good at tears.
O.K. So there's this new dubgirl on the sunshine coast (BTW there is - Kara and her Kombi), and she is kinda making doll eyes at Nick. You know that you can trust Nick, but you cant help but feel crazy about it. And she is going to Valla!
Be really pissed and whiney about it all. If you do a good job, they'll send you right on your way. Hell is nothing compared to a JEALOUS teenager being forced to stay at home rather than go protect her man. Trust me on this one. Your Parents wont stand a chance.
Another one. Pretend your sick and have to go to bed, and then, instead of leaving pillows in the bed for 4 days, go to a local cemetary, dig up a freshie, and leave that there. They'll feel so guilty about your death, and feel so relieved when you return.
i think that the jealous teenager has to be the best option from the one presented today

You just have to go.... thats all !!!!
Give Me their email address, I'll send them an email....
Just everybody is going to be there.....
You can't possibly miss out.... there won't be a Next one !!!

It's ok I think they will let me, I think they realize if they dont let me go they will have to put up with me winging, and i think that is worse for them then having to feed my horses for 2 days. WHICH btw isnt a big deal anyway. :bounceoh and yay i can see all my emoticons working again:bouncenow i feel like boucing once again. OH yes, thats why i havnt had a lot of them on my posts, they lost their "thing" when they were all just squashed looking, but now they are bouncing again!:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce
