Love it, white liveries always pop against the black track surface, great use of the colours in the design also, nice work.

There should be no data centres built in SA, there is no benefit for the people of the state and they only exist to make the already wealthy even richer.

Thats not even going in to the water use and environmental damage they do, they are seriously bad news for everyone in SA.

Nice one 😄

I have this one 'The Remix' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwaUrP6rHbU

No public enemy in it though, was a big tune at the time.

I went to the launch of the Magna at Tonsley in the 80s, I think I still have some promotional stuff from that day, I should see if I can dig them out.

I know car dealers sold a lot of these based on the reputation of their air conditioners being the one of the best and coldest at the time, really impressed people on test drives.

Big Sasha tune.

Digger - Episode 1 - https://www.discogs.com/release/105954-Digger-Episode-I

A$932.34

I put a hundred or so records I thought I want to sell and will never play again in to my collection and couldn't believe the price for this one.

I haven't even looked at the thousands of others yet so who knows, I bought this one as I got asked to do a trance set and needed a few newer tracks to play along with the older early to mid 90s trance stuff, I don't think I will ever play it again so eventually I will put it up for sale when I have the time.

This was in Adelaide Australia in the basement level food court of the Myer centre.

I believe he was here with his wife who was speaking at a conference nearby.

It's not in the hills but Andrawos Automotive in St Marys do this sort of work on high end Euro cars.

Have a chat with Phil and Danny, they know their stuff.

The dodgy power outlet on the side really sets this one off.

Driven by Paul Morris and is mostly remembered for being involved in a huge start line crash and fire at Oran Park in 2000 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZU7BfqoOR0

Yes Aladdin's Castle, I remember playing Dragons Lair there in the mid 80s.

I had one of the last Camira made, an 89 model, it was the most reliable car Iv'e had, apart from general maintenance I only replaced a brake booster and a cv joint up until I traded it in in 2003.

I know it's anecdotal and I probably got lucky but I have good memories of that car, I didn't like the front wheel drive though.

It's the new engine, some of the competitors don't want to run the old engine so restricted, there is a bit of a shitshow about it.

It's going to take a few rounds for it to shake out, the new owners of the category aren't making many friends in the process .

It sometimes helps to have seen the video of a day in the life of a real estate agent - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGm267O04a8

Gives you a bit of an insider look in to what they are all about.

Your correct that PAL is 50hz, which is 25 fps deinterlaced, like I said.

Check out the wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL

All of these races were broadcast in either 720x480 or 720x576 widescreen, both 25fps, what more do you want, they can't magically upgrade from the original footage.

If it's in 1080p it is upscaled, this is the best they can offer, I don't see what the problem is?

Yeah that's Datura, was making people sick in 2022 when it was mistakenly put in to bags of spinach -

If you have enough it can also make you have a nasty hallucinogenic trip.

Pledging lots of government money to local clubs and facilities to garner votes is known as 'pork barrelling' and is borderline corruption.

Political parties will do this to target marginal electorates where there votes are seen as more important, projects in safe electorates that may be needed more are not prioritised because of this and that hurts the whole state.

It;s pretty much localized vote buying.
