Hmm, dunno. Every time I played spotto as a kid I didn't have to show anyone pics. lol

 

The thing is Toranas are so fast by the time you get your camera ready, they're gone.

You're right there StephenSLR, I did some quick laps at Waneroo once and video'd it, but it failed, then realised that video cameras work with light that only travels at sub Torana speeds, :)

Agree. Spotted does not mean photographed and taking pics while your driving could be a bit dangerous anyway.

This was at the Pub a couple of weeks ago..   I asked him if he was on the forum.  He said no.   I said you should join.  He said we talk shit.   At that point I walked away.

His loss...  Nice car though, smelt like he was running E85..
