well what a week it has been...... :D :D :D


spend all of tuesday night sitting on a plane listening to a kid scream his lungs out all night then met Mick at the airport and went to pick the van up and we were off,

drove to bathurst to do a lap of the track but it was closed :evil: :evil: :evil: :cry:

then just a quick dash to cobah (800 k's) stayed the night there and then drove to Alice springs the next day (2000 k's)
only drama's were getting a flat as we were pulling into the servo at Pt Augusta, getting caught speeding at Marla 124 in a 110 zone(cops gave me an official caution instead of a fine) and replaced the carby in alice as i accidently filled the old girl up with OPAL fuel and that shit is just plane evil on engines...... other than that car ran beautifully and got alot of attention at the drags in alice.....(should be piccies of it in upcoming editions of SM, aust dragracing and dragster magazines)

cheers mick the van is fricken awesome :D :D :D :D :D
