hey Jukka, the autocross at Willowbank is generally smooth as a babys bottom,,, my buggy is about 2 inches off the ground & it really is fun

fastest time of the day outright this run,,,, but you may want to scroll through to about 1min50secs for the start of the it,,, there was a slight
delay

willowbank
Hey Matt that buggy goes round there like its on rails. Are you using frontwheel drive? love the Stanley gearshifter. A mate of mine has a mini I am
trying to talk him into having a run at Grafton. I think he's a bit worried my ute might beat his mini. Will definately do a trip up to willowbank,
do they do practice days been a while since I done it in the dirt. Jukka

Hey Type3ute, i`m in Byron atm, got a few weeks off & surfing is number one time-out fun (after racing off course)
i`m on a sh!tty borrowed laptop atm so i cant view your vid, but i will as soon as i`m back home
& no, i won`t be making the Grafton Hillclimb this month, still have the wiring & the cables & the fuel system to finish off on the buggy,
so maybe next month if time permits, but at least we`re getting some progress on the thing, slowly but surely,,, just that the surf has been really
good here, nice neat tidy consistant 3 to 4ft swell with 5 to 6 ft sets steaming on through every ten mins or so,,, the weather has been absolutely
fantastic,,, it`s sooooo nice here right now
but of course obviously now that i`ve said that the surf will drop off to a dribble ripple & the weather will most certainly turn to shit :-)
i really can`t wait to get back home & work on the buggy tho,,, hanging to finish the thing & feel another 30 hp :-)
really keen to get back to Lakeside too,,, HANGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:-)

Better get home and finish the buggy. Grafton is holding a State round on June longweekend, practice Saturday 12 till 4pm, camping available Sat night
then racing Sunday. State registered competitors get first preference but they told me on the weekend there will be plenty of spots left for the rest
of us. See ya there.
