This weekend we have been turning 2 clean Raptors and a clean Navigator into grubby ones riding through the rain to a rally in a field... Mission accomplished!

Yeah I managed to turn a clean one into a dirty one this weekend, rode through two showers AND a stretch of gravel, go ME. She still looks bloody good though!

Hah, yeah if I have to be a Tart I'm a Jam Tart, Hibs are fae the wrang side o'toon! Well I ran out of paint half way through the second coat, apparently a $1 fleabay paint pen (with free postage) doesn't go far. Off for a road test today, at least now I've got an excuse to refuse to park on gravel, that's worth a dollar anyway.

Damn they're hot!
Must. Get. Job. :(

BTW I'm not gonna recommend the HEL lines to anyone any more - I don't go out in the rain much but my banjo bolts are already looking pretty shit.
"Surely" they should have been made from 316 s/s, no? :rant:
Yeah i have a nice new set of black s/s banjo's courtesy of goodridge that dont fit. These guys really don't understand the raptors quirky brakes!
