As the topic suggests, that black thing of nicks deserves a gathering when it finally gets finished.
Cruise, bbq, drooling session all of the above.
This might be a good excuse to officially launch "TrackChat" as well. What do you guys think?
Cheers,
Scott

:D Yep ... we need some more creative smilies ... this is as close as I could get to a laugh !!!
Thanks Scat, I'll be in on that.
The Coupe is in the process of having a surge tank installed as a part of the fuel system upgrade. It will have two Bosch 044 fuel pumps running off it to ensure the engine doesn't run out of fuel under acceleration / cornering. Then the exhaust will be fitted and then it will be tuned. I may be optimistic here ... but I am hoping that the exhaust is fitted this week and it's ready for tuning.
When the photo software is up and running I plan to start a thread on the the car and it's mods, somewhat condensed from the other forum.
Great to hear Nick, its time! :cool:

Completely agree Scott, when to Coupe rolls out of the Marrano's shop I think that day should be proclamied as a national public holiday.
A gathering should be had with much celebration and merriement. I intend to take a day off when Nick collects it and come down for the day. Hmmmm that probably explains why I have 5 RDO's saved up. :)

National Holiday ... I like the sound of that. "Coupe 4 Day"

G'Day Sonny and welcome to TrackChat, look forward to valuable input from you on all things mechanical and otherwise.
Congrats. to Chris & Marrano's, here's to a long and successful association for both of you. I think you may have finally found an employee that is actually keen to go to work Sonny !!! With you as a teacher he is going to learn heaps.
Re; the Coupe. Everyone else has been more concerned about the delays than I have, some things are worth waiting for. Can't wait for the tune, I'll be there camera in hand ( ... Sonny's coffee in the other hand :D ) to see the whole thing. It's getting close ...
:D
Can't wait to see the Coupe4 on the road, and track! It's sure to be a unique weapon.

Great idea Scott - launch the site to the public at large with the unveiling of the super coupe and celebrate with the forum's first cruise/BBQ/chin wag.
I spose we need some ideas now??
There is a certain track day coming up that would be a good day to officialy launch the site and present the coupe, but Nick is busy that day so I dont know about the coupe :( It would be great to do both at once :)
I think MM's Idea is good. A track day is a great place to launch "Track Chat":D
Anyone?
Troy :)
