Hi folk, just a quick note........ to say the drive from Hobart to Perth WA in my lil ol' Honey Brown went faultlessly, travelling most of the way at 80mph it took four days doing six to eight hours a day. Much to the amazement of fellow travelers!!!!!! Photos comin'.....

Hey Scando, been trying to keep up to date with your goings on, even went and got a new exhaust fitted at your old mans. Saw your Green machine looking a bit sad (pre engine graft) all good now, or will be when you source the diff you want.......
In WA mainly all work, might get to check a bit of racing out soon. GL Getting the ol' girl sorted, should be well ahead for next season!!!

Good to see you will be at Symmons Scando If I had a Mongolian national flag I would be there waving it for you. Instead I will just come down the pits and say hello to you. Anyone else going out to have a look? I know Boost is cause he will be bringing some bits for project Cherry Bomb. Hope to see afew other out there.

If the only thing I break for the weekend is a PB Datsunlimited then I'll be very happy You chose a good time to get out of the valley and go to WA ricecutter. I've had a few interesting mornings drifting the R30 through the frost over Vinces Saddle on the way to work! Well it looks like I'm going to have more pit crew than the Ferrari F1 team on sunday so anybody who comes to the meeting make sure you come down to the pits for a chat. I should have plenty of spare time on my hands!

The days have been pretty good down here...........It's just the nights and mornings that have been the problem.

Hey Scando, did you see Top Gear, You better get big Dadda to do me up a quote for a 450hp outboard, mind you, no bloody 4 strokes, and I'll bolt it on the back of the Cruiser!!

LOL, so you want your very own Toybota. I don't know about a 450 but he could hook you up with a couple of 250's. I can't believe the thing stayed upright for as long as it did! Lucky they didn't build it well enough to get up on the plane or it would have been scarey I also can't believe the engine in the yacht started again when he got it out of the water. What date is the club day you're coming down for? The Z definately won't be in action, it's having another heart transplant before the next round. I'd like to come out for a look but I kinda don't have a license at the moment

Just my own stupidity. Had a few drinks and thought I was under the limit but I wasn't Was only a little over and I have a good driving record (until now) so they just gave me the minimum penalty without having to go to court. I'm now walking for three months. I haven't forgotten about photocopying the manual, I've just been slack! Don't send me any money, I'll get it to ya soon
