WSID another thread....post your travels and pics
matberry - February 22nd, 2012 at 06:30 PM

Time has come to hit the road for me...yee ha, weekend starts early :tu:
Very different than usual with the mega rush to have everything ready, I guess it helps having a slow car.....
Decided best to trailer Bluey as his old engine gave a few warning signs heading home from Dubs last Sunday, also a trailer between a few of us could be handy come Sunday :)

Marcus is riding shotgun in the T3 panel so hopefully he is so technomological he'll be able to post some pics as we head south. Brissy tonight, Col in the Fruitloop joins us tomorrow as we head to Nambucca, then Friday run to WSID with Daimo, Luke and Brian with respective partners. Should be a great cruise down the Pacific.

A real change for me....cruising style. I drove nearly nonstop, 32 hours to Portland not so long ago :dork::crazy:

I hope the weather is nicer further south, esp on Saturday......I had to load up in the rain... :(

Feel free to add your travel pics as your on the way to the track.


See ya there !!
Matt

FROSTY - February 22nd, 2012 at 07:56 PM

Hey Matt, I'm leaving the gold coast tomorrow morning (thurs) about 5.30-6.00am I'm going straight through to the inlaws on the central coast.
Might see you on the road somewhere.

LIFE IN THE LOW LANE - February 22nd, 2012 at 09:58 PM

'warning sign heading home from Dubs at the Pub'

What was the problem Matt? Bluey looked and sounded strong when we were cruising together!

Was the Ghia pushing you too hard!!

kempos - February 25th, 2012 at 08:39 PM

Thanks to all the drivers and their teams for putting on a great spectacle of racing today. Thoroughly enjoy myself (after I came to terms with the over-priced entry fee :grind: ), and particularly enjoyed seeing how excited my 5 and 2 year old nephews got :) Well done ALL drivers and organisers!!!!

What a great weekend, great times cruising, racing and just hang'n out talking V Dubs....:tu::tu::tu:

Thanks heaps to the Pell clan for looking after the banana benders enroute, managed to catch up with Mark while looking for Luke's hide-away and then Daimo as usual, excelled with cooking up a storm at his place of employment.....cruise with us next year and we may take you there .... :) :)


Here's some more cruising shots
