Good to hear Tao, As said earlier I will bring my small marquee which will be more than enough for us. If you can bring the tarp we used at Geelong that will give us a bit more shade.

I will be cancelling one of the 3 bed romms because John wants to have Buds 2 rooms and with Kev not staying with us that leaves One spare bed in Tao's 3 bed room for Chris.

Perfect.

Some slightly worring news today.

My car is still down at G&D getting retuned after getting it back from the panel shop on Friday.

The car continues to go into Limp mode and they are having trouble finding the cause.

Hopefully it can all get sorted before Friday or I'm going to have to pull out.

FINGERS CROSSED yet again this year.

Hey guys, good to see a few of you are heading over again this year.. hope the guys that are having issues can get them sorted
I know I left this stupidly late, but I'm trying to organise an AFF banner or similar for our forums display. If I can arrange it, would one of you be able to bring it over and take it home again?
No worries if its a hassle, I should have sorted it ages ago..
Cheers

Don't scare me like that!! We love Theo but not that much! Car Has just had 4.11s fitted and it needs to be run in before it goes on any interstate trips.

Have a great weekend boys. I'm showing dogs and Craig is babysitting the pups. Looking forward to hearing about the trophies......

Take a cricket bat with you and tell them it better be fixed by friday.

I am also bringing my GPS to find our accomadation in SA. Has the motel have a swimming pool? so we all can bring our bathers with us.

If you dont come could you let us know all the addresses for the motel and where the show is.

CHEERS

There's not much they can do. It's not there fault that it's doing this. It's something the guy who replaced the heater core did. It shouldn't be to hard to track down. Hopefully they get someone from Ford out this morning to run a diagnosis on the car then they can track down the problem.


http://www.highlanderhotel.com.au/accommodation.php
Here's were we are staying

Forcast for Adelaide

Sat 38 deg
Sun 39 deg.

Sorry John I don't think theres a pool but we would only be about 10mins from the beach.

Clutch, this word in my dictionary's definition, are words I cannot type here. Nothing but grief!! I feel for you mate, I have done a couple and wasted thousands, I should have just bought an auto. Next time.

Yeah I think the same sometimes, Oh we'll. We know what were getting into when we mod our cars and we have to pay the price.

No shortcuts this time, this clutch will be very tough.

Sorry to hear Joel, you certainly have been copping it rough mate. You'll be missed buddy. Without sounding cold, will we have any cover at all with us? Looks to be a 39 degree day Sunday.

Marty just rang me, and it is now only the 4 of us. ORSMT, ORSM6T, GTPOWR and Adrian, Big John's son. This is ok, we'll still fly the flag..But wait!!! We have no flags, and what's worse... No marquee. Looks like we will be the ORSM Fried Cruisers.... Oh well, 0530 at Macca's Coburns rd Melton for an 0600 departure. For all those attending....
