get me in front of the pace car or the race is over..

Days of Thunder is a movie that may be familiar to some but not to others.. if it isn’t, get it, get aquainted and you’ll understand my opening statement..

As im sure you are all very aware last night saw the inaugural Mega Schnitzel/Karting Bonanza proudly brought to you by Fatloaf.com

Without going back over ground Scott has already covered I would just like to have my two cents worth and no you can’t have change.. I will start by passing on my appreciation for all those that got involved drivers or spectators.. it will all go down hill rapidly from here..

To those of you who piked, pulled the pin, whimped out or we just to god damn scared to take on the wrath of the Fatloaf Boys or the speed and might of my new found peg bashing hero’s you missed out on an extremely enjoyable night and well… you can get stuffed.. (i mean that in the nicest possible way) oh and your not invited to the next event which is already in the early stages of preparation.. (we may take bribes to get involved)

anyway onto the events at hand..
Do you people understand why it was called the MAWSON LAKES MEGA SCHNITZEL CHALLENGE!? obviously not.. WAKE UP! you dont go to a MEGA SCHNITZEL CHALLENGE and order a bite size schnity.. its not right and i’m going to go as far as to say that anyone that did not order the MEGA SCHNITZEL and finish it is UN-AUSTRALIAN! to the boys at Mattsson and Martyn (my peg bashing friends) i have to say i was disappointed in you all.. specially you Neddy, your a disgrace.. your efforts to not eat anything at all proves that you are weak.. sure you may have a trophy, a title belt and bragging rights until the next event but thats all you’ve got, nothing else! and Richo i dont know what your excuse was for not making dinner at all but im sure its piss weak too (like Ned) and no i dont care if it was Fathers Day.. but the biggest disgrace of all goes to Kristan, not only did you fail to organise yourself into a team but you couldnt even knock the head off a pint of beer, and to make matters worse you left it there, all alone, unwanted and unloved.. the only good thing to come of it was seeing Gav dip his bread in it on the way out just before Ned and myself covered the deceased beer with napkins.. a very poor effort Kristan.. I hope you can sleep at night.. R.I.P PINT OF PALE ALE..

I’m going to continue the fine form of sledging that i have had since last night and i will head into the jaws of death by saying although Bill did finish his schnitzel his time was poor.. both Scott and I are smaller than Bill and we both managed to consume the MEGA schnity in a time Bill the hired goon/food critic could only dream of.. and dont give me the “its not a race” line.. it was and is.. everything sunday night was about racing including the trip home where the borrowed loan car of 2ltr capacity manged to blow the doors off your BIG BLOODY V8 UTE im now with scotty go the rice burners!

On a lighter note i too must pass my thanks on to Amy for delivering the complimentary schooners in the pint size glasses.. Amy, we have even given you a mention in here so you dont feel so left out in not being able to join us at the karting bonanza, im sure you will become and avid fatloaf fan now and follow the developements of the next event.. remember.. action speaks louder than words.. odds on Amy’s all talk..

I have customised the highlights list.. some of Scotts highlights i share but there is some others that i found amusing:

On the first lap Ned was put into the wall by Spence
PJ being spun out by Spence
Greg being spun out by Spence, maybe twice (i have been since informed his ribs may not be in the same place as when the race started)
Matt getting up close and personal with the tyre barrier, courtesy of Spence
Spence coming in 5 laps too early then coming in a lap later because he hadn’t done up his chin strap on the helmet
Scott shunting Nurl several times because he forgot where the accerelerator was
Kylie freaking out and backing off every time Scott got near her..
the battle for 2nd that ended in tears
Gav coming into the pits in 3rd and then when he got back in again after the Boy’s round, being last
and finally The boy pulling a Spence and pitting at the 70 lap mark instead of the 75 lap mark..

Now i had some complaints about my driving last night, as you can see from my highlights list i wasnt involved in much carnage, i dont care what anyone says.. what you may have experienced on the track last night to quote the above mentiond movie was, rubbing… and rubbing is racing!!!

Since the race finished i have been analysing, team Fatloaf’s performance and i think if is wasn’t for a couple of technical glitches e.g me fucking up and our lousy helmet change we would have been in with a real chance, so look out boys.. bring it on next time.. yea, we want a shot at the title..

Also if that little smartass shit from kart mania is reading this… hear my words your gone.. wannna find out what its like to become part of the tyre barrier?.. you maybe faster than me on the track but i only got 30 seconds to wait until you come around again and before i put your sorry ass into the wall at the hair pin, who needs brakes when you have a little smartass to drive into.. lets see how fast you are after the fastest Kart bearing 140 kgs has come on you with a vengence! its all fun and games until you get hurt.. or die.. if that doesnt work.. i’ll throw Bill at ya!

i havent really got much else to say on the matter.. im sure the next event will be bigger and better so stay tuned.. it will be well worth the effort..

Dont forget to check out scott’s post for more detail on this great event..

for me that is all.

    I’d like to point out that it was Gav who pulled into the pits at 70. It was me standing on the side shouting “5 more laps you crumpet!”. But in his defence, if he was counting his own laps, he may have gotten confused seeing as the scoreboard failed to tick over for about 3 laps for no apparent reason

    Whats that Spence… a disgrace… why dont you hold the next event on Christmas day or Mothersday or any other day where lunch is the feature meal and then require the worlds biggest scnhitty be eaten beforehand? For the record I ate the other half of Kangs schnitty after the first half sent him running around The Mawson like a headless chook looking for the keys to the porcelin bus… strangly causing him to treat a pale ale like it was a fosters light ice. If fatloaf.com want the title back then AGR will accept the challenge anyday anytime (except the above mentioned days). And BTW spence if your pants are too loose, I have a belt you can borrow.

    Ned, dont you understand that having to eat a big lunch then the schnity is part of the challenge.. do you think that you were the only one to participate in Fathers Day festivities? I THINK NOT! so the statement stands that you are a disgrace Kang is a poof and Richo is gay.. The next challenge will be WWF style straight after the MEGA SCHNITY and it will be you me, carpark now.

    Boy, please accept my sincerest apologies… i needed someone else to share the stupidity with and you seemed like the easiest target. im not editing the post because i believe that had you been in that kart at that time, you would have done it anyway, if you dont like them apples take it up with Bill, since Team BDJR folded he has been freelancing as ‘Hired Goon’ for very competitive rates ;)

  4. The Boy

    I dare not go near Bill for a little while. He seemed all to eager to swoop me up into his arms and give me a bear-hug come cuddle. Though there was something very soothing about nestling in his beard??

    Interesting Adam… I have scoured this site far and wide and you know what? I can’t find any reference to a mega schnitzel/carting bonanza except in your post, and then when i click on the orange link, it only comes up with “Fatloaf Go Karting Bonanza” – no mention of a mega schnitzel challenge what so ever! now i am sure as much as kang dissapointed the coopers brewery spence will be hitting the edit on the link to add the words “mega schnitzel” to the challenge page… but hey if i had the fastest kart and got beaten by several laps and outsledged by the grease monkey apprentice, then i too would be bending the rules to favor for something else.

  6. Ned

    just as i predicted, post editing on the site… good ol’ predictable spence.
