Title: Painting of steel barriers
Post by Steve Hocaluk on Jan 13^th, 2012 at 11:17am

Before the start of the upcoming season, we need to have the steel barriers sand blasted an painted. This would include the steel gate at pit entry.

Is there anyone who has suitable equipment for this, or knows someone who does that would like to give us a quote?

Thx!

Steve

Steve
I met an Aussie guy at the track last year that does work for Brian at BCCCA. He gave me a quote (which I remember as being reasonable) but I lost it! ::)
Ask Brian or Laura I'm sure they can help.

Club member Fidel Kunz has done a lot of painting for us in the past. (retired proffessional painter)

The Aussie Guy goes by Kiwi 604.729.5381

He painted the original blue and white blocks for us.

Indeed!
But like us the Kiwi's are very tolerant :).

You learn to be tolerant when in your country sheep outnumber people seven and a half to one so why then did we learn to be so tolerant ?

I would suggest that it has little to do with sheep and more to do with living next to 'noisy' neighbors that you can't shut up, tolerance is the only option ;).

Are there a lot of 'half sheep' in NZ ???

Google told me it was 7.5 to 1, not 7 not 8 but 7.5 so I guess there are some half sheep somewhere. Remember it's two big islands so maybe some have two feet on the north island and two feet on the south. ;D
