Really enjoyed that run, many thanks to Keith and Jo for organising it. I'm still a little surpised that mine was the only green car there today, at least I stood out from all the red ones

Some very nice cars out there, I especially liked the red SE that was behind me up Mt Tamborine. Nice to talk to everyone I met there.

Good to see the lack of blues there! Red is clearly winning. For a reason, too!

Hey, your copilot led us down that dirt road. I just directed us further down it.... It was the right road, just the wrong direction!

We also don't have Volvo-shaped bumps in our rear bumpers either!

So how many Loti turned up? \"Elise\" is actually an MX-5 Club member.

Just two.

A big thanks to them for giving me the water in their thermos for my trip home.

I didn't fix a hose problem from a track day (ie that hose has no clamp) and it caused me to have to pull over. Anyway, with their help I was able to get to a petrol station and refill the cooling system after having put on a hose clamp - which was already in the car waiting to be put on later that day at my parents' place.

Fun fun.

Sorry sir! Lapse on my part. If only I'd been granted a few extra hrs before running out of coolant, I'd have put the clamp on!

PT, those shots appear to be in focus... good.

Jules, nice sprint in the parts that I was actually attached to part of the convoy for.

It was also good to see that Malibu's 100% again.

Yeah, it would seem I have it sorted now.

Yep, Love twisties...
Those back roads through the back of Tambourine were awesome!

And Malibu is now sweeter than ever before
