Be good to see you there Wopass!!!

Is it possible to start a bit earlier this time? Say 8am? So that we can get a bit more in the day (I want a good run this time... Will have plenty of spares :P )

i'm in.

I assume theres plenty of tame terrain to wander around. I have bought my lovely ,but long suffering bride, a Wrangler. she wants somewhere to "learn" that is nowhere near Thommos. (whats wrong with her!!!!!) So, we'll be down, ill be passenger-ing........ exuberantly exhorting the benefits of a brake pedal in white knuckle terror no doubt.

Sounds like a great idea. The tracks are fantastic, some would be done quickest in a rally car, so good for any sort of driving. I've got a recce weekend before so we'll see what happens.

Yeah Brian it is. Will see what happens with it. No too worried if it doesnt sell, bit i think the price ive got on it is a fair one... time will tell.

17th is all good with us. Katrina is chomping at the bit to get the Wrangler dirty.

Okay, have spoken with Pete, we are booked in for Sunday 17th June, subject to the weather, if it has been raining 2-3 days prior it would be a no go :cry: as he does not want the tracks ripped up too much and would not be much fun for us probably anyway :cry:

so will get an update on who's coming around 11th June :D
