Hey Quismiff,

Spotted a few times near my new place:

* A blue/grey CJ with a plate that reads as "BATMAN" - it's really something like BATMN-5, with a few Batman stickers.
* A black CJ RalliArt SportBack
* A red VRX SportBack with a big sticker on the rear window (sort of like 2 interlinked circles)
* A shiny blue RalliArt sedan being driving by a blonde lady

New to Lynbrook, Gunmetal EVO rego ending in 5UC seen it a couple of times at the shops but wasn't sure if it is sticking around :mrgreen:

Also saw the white RA Hatch that is local but never catch the owner/have the nads to speak to and not feel like a creeper, like with Viking :oops:

Ferntree Gully Woolworths (Burwood Hwy?) last weekend - silver sedan with vortex generator, rear diffuser (the thing that goes under the bumper), two Mitsubishi logos on the boot (WTF?), and personal plate of 'UWASH' or something similar.

Yeah, I think he calls home a couple hundred metres from me... Think he may have had a large AUS CJ decal down the side of his windscreen at some stage. Been hoping to catch him at the lights to see if his vortex generator helps against my 2.4L... :lol:

Depends how big the decals are
Usually add about 5HP for every decal

Hey there Q...

Things are going OK. Still have a job and a roof over my head, so better off than a lot of people. :cry:

How about you and everyone else in VIC?

Saturday April 18th on Scoresby Rd - a blue SportBack with black bonnet & blacked out front badge, after-market rims and seriously lowered.

Didn't see the rego plate, unfortunately.

Time to resurrect the thread, even if it's just me talking to myself...

Saturday afternoon heading north (towards the city) on CityLink - a silver/grey sedan with SA plates, loud pipe, those mini-sharks-teeth things across the top of the back window.

I'm trying...

There are plenty of CJs out there, but no-one seems to be playing 'Spotto' these days. Haven't seen a few usual suspects around my area, either.

Just realised that my last post is wrong, too. It was EastLink I saw the guy on. Kind of funny, too, when I saw that guy. I zoomed past him and he didn't like that - he changed lanes to sit right on my arse and then got past me and disappeared into the distance.
