I'll post the full list next weekend, but Wayne is bringing three cars - the oval, the hillclimb and the Vee.

Other good news - Chris Holland has made a full recovery from a nasty illness and will be racing his bug.

Hey Rose

Nice suit, I was going to ask if you had matching undies, but after the pictures that Ian posted a while ago, I realised that you don't wear any undies.

Hey Rose I thought women want it to last longer, it could be over in about 10 secs.

What's the colour code?

L620 - I am going direct gloss in this instance for time constraints (ie. single stage 2 pack) rather than base/clear. First coat of high build primer tonight, will need some repairs/rub down/reprime/resand before colour goes on!

For those travelling from Brisbane via the Cunningham remember the airshow is on at Amberley.
There are already signs up along the Cunningham advising of arterial road closures and expected delays, plus there are road works on route as well. The Airshow gates open at 8.00 am so expect delays early. There is talk of 60,000 people attending.

It is a great airshow!!! Went to one a few years ago and it was awesome. F111's doing low altitude fly bys was my fav of the day. the noise then the heat and pressure from the engines on occasions was something else.

If it wasn't for the fact I see it everyday I might have had a harder time making a choice.

Big cheers to Brad for hanging around at work till around 2am last night to lend a hand.....good news is his "mystery bug" that will debut at Warwick is now painted. Now time to pull the front beam to weld in adjusters then reassemble the whole thing, quickly go through the brakes etc etc.....hopefully I'll get the final repairs done to my oval tonight and get it in the last coat of high build primer ready for its rub tomorrow and then paint!

Big cheers to my lovely wife for letting me spend so much time at work leading up to warwick 😘
