If your truck is ready, you are welcome to come along.
The farm is hardly used much, just some grazing for the neighbor's cattle (he has downsized the amount of cattle he has, so doesn't need the farm too much).
However, I will talk to Dad about it, and we may do two different weekends, to spread numbers out a bit.

Oh, and the occasional maintenance weekend (fences etc) wouldn't go amiss.

But you were supposed to be comin to Norwest to race
I'd be keen to come for a play date dependant. Oh and only if there is room. Good places are hard to come by , don't want to exceed your folks kindness in opening the place up for you and your mates to play. Matinence is always good.
Toy - Zuk chassis tub, hilux 4.88 axles and transfer, Nissan CA18DE motor and auto trans, sc12 supercharger, 32 10'5 simex, twin motor 8274 custom freespool. Well the parts are all there in various corners of the shed

Sometime between now and September (closer to Sept than now).
Oh, and a $15ish fee will probably apply, depending on whether we will stay at the hall, and numbers of trucks attending etc

Yeah, I will get proper numbers when I have confirmed a time.
I will get anyone who is interested to PM me, and it'll be a 'first in first served' sorta thing. (I might let club members have more time to decide though, cos I'll have it as an official club run.)

Ahh, soon maybe. Hopefully.
I've got exams atm, and the Lada isn't quite ready, but maybe towards the end/even the middle of Nov?
I'm sure it'll still be wet enough out the back then...

No, still no date sorry.
Lada still isn't working and now I've got a job working on boats, and I have to work some weekends.
But I'll make an effort to get everything sorted out.

I know, I've been hearing it for a while.
The grass at the farm is going to be eaten down soon, was near the top of the fences before
So at least we won't get stuck on long wet grass

Nope, cow poop. - Much slippery-er

Sweet, will be good to see the Jeep in action
At least you can still wheel hard there without scratching it
