so lastnight the highway collective went to tarlton for some drag racing. hooked up with brad (hellchops) in the "ghetto" and waited for jon (the collective) to meet us. we then hit the road.
pulled through to sasol at the big fourway stop, for lack of a better name, to meet stu (roadhawg). brad decided that the sasols landscaping wasnt quite up to scratch and proceeded to rearrange one of their yellow wooden poles...
we parked and chilled up at the start line for a while. stu had a couple of runs and posted a best time of 16.3 seconds, not too bad for the daddy cabby. after that we just chilled by the cars and spoke shit for a good 30 or 40 mins. was pretty damn cold, but the highway collective was in high spirits having racked up our first drag race victory, a notion that brought a chuckle to the group.
took this shot of jon's caddy on the way to the northgate mcdees, brad wanted to check out the illegal drags. its really shakey and out of focus, but i dont care, i think its cool : )
after talking some more crap at mcdess we headed home. brad wanted to "show me sumthing", so i was like cool. we drove towards this dodgy little cafe/petrol station, and brad said "check wat these guys so wen i put my indicator on". as soon as he indicated, like 5 or 6 of these nigerian dudes started whistling and holding up their hands, signalling for us to pull in. they were drug dealers! craziest shit iv ever seen, haha!
heres a shetchy drive-by shot of 2 of them, couldnt exactly hold the camera up and ask them to say "cheese"! you can kinda make out the one dude in the yellow rainmack and another ones's outline against the shop lights.
we then headed back to brad place. took this sketchy handheld shot, should hav taken the time to set up the tripod, but was kinda a spur of the moment thing.
