I'll be there come hell or high water. I have binned the study for the day, told the wife I am going and will charge the camera for all those shots of various bits I have questions about (towhooks, fuel cells, exhausts etc).

No truck though as I havent fixed the gearbox. Maybe done for the LS trial later on.

I didnt say which one now did I (March maybe)?
I decided to donate my fuel cell money to the police department in return for a small piece of paper with my details and the details of the wifes car on it. Seems the little swift with 4 adults can do 118km/h. Not disputing it as I was speeding at the time (Tar hill north of Taupo) and was coasting down the hill gas bagging and not paying attention. So things took a slight turn south with regards to spending on the POS. Still I have my $10 and some $$ for chips and a hot dog if they have them there.

Is there parking in the top padock (just off the road)? I think I recognise the place, Huge padock with a hill running near to parallel to the road, and access down the hill to the right side of the flat area inside the fence (as looking from the gate). at the bottom of the hill is all sorts of fun places to "play"
