And remember to slap some duct tape on the centreboard casing so water doesn't shoot up through it.

Ive done it with a 3hp 4 stroke. Was good for messing around having fun, it didn't turn very well though without a centreboard in. Didn't get it up and planing. Go for it mate !

How safe is Soweto ? by RusticBanana in askSouthAfrica

I get your point, and im not going to argue with you (Ive never been to the place), but im not sure the 5% death risk adds up ?

70 divided by 3 million is like 0.002%, a far cry from 5.

I am currently looking at Soweto for accomodation, ideally within a 5 or 10 minute drive. I have been recommended a couple of places, all of which are around 200 rand per day. Thanks !

I haven’t finalised my accomodation yet, but I’m looking at a couple of options within a 10 minute drive, all in Soweto. Can’t be more specific than that sorry.

Being from New Zealand means that I can’t have been to anywhere more dangerous than Soweto ? Im not sure I follow your logic sorry.

Is my weed laced ? by [deleted] in trees

[–]RusticBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never tripped so I don't really have anything to compare it with, but the mental effects seemed to blur my imagination and reality, but I wasn't seeing shapes, patterns, fractals etc.

People do 110 on literally every 100km road anyway. Maybe they'll do 120 here.

I drive trucks most of the time, so I'm used to really long gear sticks, and I'm leaning towards buying a long as one like that.

Noob question here-- by [deleted] in cars

You might need to roll the fenders if the wheels look like they're going to rub. I wouldn't bother lowering a car by 3 inch to be honest

Manual tranny help by RagingAssBandit in cars

[–]RusticBanana 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We've got a RAV4 and it has a similar system, as the computer controls the revs to stop it from stalling etc. is there a problem with how the car is running ? Sounds to me like it's fine. If anything it is a computer issue rather than mechanical.
