I'm back now :)
Just got in this morning and I am trying to stay awake now for the day to get over the jet lag.
Did the money order get to you?????
I am posted to Bris in August (turn up at work at Amberley on the 4th), so I can grab the roof rack on the way through if you like?
Cheers
Chris

Nope, it did drive about this low to the ground. You should have seen it spin its wheels at the acceleration trials!!!!(No drags, just a timed sprint along a road for 250 metre)

They had a dirt buggy track with water trap etc. The one you can see the driver was trying to pull out the other one that is spraying up the water plume.

This one not only had a sweet paint job.........


penguin - June 28th, 2004 at 09:24 PM

Nah
not a pommie swapmeet
but a Dutch one :D
even better I think.

They all spoke english (without mentioning the rugby world cup or the football/soccer as Holland wasn't going so well then)and the euro was cheaper than the pound!!!

As for enjoying myself, I still have the grin on my face from it when I think about it :D :D :D :D :D
