Two things... I can't believe that that episode pointed out that we still haven't fixed New Orleans! STILL!!! argh and my dad kinda looks like fat stig!

fookin A i agree lol guys I will try, but hopefully without lookin like a creeeep haha

Just under 6 hours or so, probably closer to 5 1/2 hours... She stalled on me when I got off the "freeway" aka motorway to take a trip down the Santa Susana Pass, it's one of our most famous spots that people do shots for test drive shows, commercials and other types of stuff... Except with the budget crisis the road looks like absolute hell... Here are some random shots of California and Nevada from the past couple months, and the trip from this week - http://robertpielock.com/California/IMG_0311.JPG http://robertpielock.com/California/IMG_0315.JPG http://robertpielock.com/California/IMG_0347.JPG http://robertpielock.com/California/IMG_0380.JPG http://robertpielock.com/California/IMG_0408.JPG Also took some video of the trip up something we call the Grapevine, my Cortina looks like an ant next to some of the SUVs and freight trucks that were rolling up next to me. - This is the reason I want to update a lot of stuff on my car, suspension and brakes mostly - our roads are getting worse every day, and so are the drivers. Here's a brief Wiki about the area, Manson used to live near the house! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Susana_Pass

Alright almost packed up!

I plan on posting photos of California for ya guys, I'm driving my Cortina to my Dad's place in Los Angeles on Tuesday morning. I HOPE I make it with no problems. Any tips on stuff to bring for such a long run? I'm having trouble with getting our gas nozzles at the "petrol" stations to fit in the back, so I'm going to bring a gas can just in case, as my gauges are bust. So with a little energon, and a lot luck, I'll be fulfilling California picture requests soon.

Man those are some amazing Cortinas... I wonder if we ever got the 1600E here, I've never seen one in person, well here at least. So whats up with that reverse light? I got one the other day, I'm not sure on mounting it, can you take some pictures on the inside of the boot and tell me about where a mounting hole would go? I'm kinda scared to drill it out, but I will be tinting my rear window soon and will need the extra light

Anyone ever courier body-parts for transplants?

Hey does anyone on this site own this car? http://www.purplecortina.co.uk/ My girlfriend sent me the link the other day after I was telling her about my Cortina... I'm not too sure what she's suggesting though...

Is that the little SAS book or the big big book? I had a copy of the big one once, you never know when you'll have to kill a guard dog... The little book is good too, my girl has it, but the big one is really really scary.

He won't play here since he's got such a bad rap as a kiddie fiddler! lol Good luck dealing with that guy!

So is that the same car that is in your garage on the site? The red one? It looks to be the same, the paint looks nice!

man that should be a scene in a movie! epic!

haha some times I am happy I live in California!

Hey what are your wheel size and tyres setup? Looks good man!

Like fish guts....

This video is hillarious!

Yeah it appears to be working! Cool beans!

I lol'd at the photo! Yeah my Dad is a California Highway Patrol Officer... I guess I'm just really mad because I know the cop went a little over board and did a lot of things wrong when he pulled me over. Did I mention he was about 20 years old?

Ever since the switch to the other server there's been some issues with the GD component and some of the scripts that should run on the site. I just got this error when attempting to upload another photo to my Cortina in the Garage area of the site: "No GD Configured In PHP Build Your build of PHP is missing the required GDv2 library that is used for all image processing. Any item you were creating will have been created but no image attached. Please configure your PHP build with GDv2 and try again" Looks like maybe the Apache / PHP / MySQL or Server distro are missing some PHP components, or the httpd.conf is missing something.

Just venting, had a crap day today and last night was the start of it. I was driving home last night and almost got plowed into by a police officer driving without his warning lights, and to top it off, had I not moved out of the way he would have seriously impacted my car. The bastard then told me my license plate lights were out, and that was why he pulled me over, at gunpoint. So yeah, when was the last time you guys got a .40 stuck in your face? Am I wrong to think this is excessive force? Then I got into work, and my co-worker showed me: (A bit graphic, warning / heads up.) http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/0 ... 573880.php http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/401 ... ene28.html I really wish we had better ways to punish bad cops here.

So is it just me or is Little Chef gross? You guys know any good places on the way to Oxford from London?

Been raining here all week in California! ha!

Aww Route 66 got my hopes up!

Nice thanks man!
