Glad to hear people had fun, and most importantly got home OK. We had 115 people, 64 cars and 2 pets. Definitely a huge turnout. We had members, potential members, NSW members, kids of members, friends and pets.

Next year?????

Well Jackie said there wasn't going to be a "next year" last year, so we're just sticking with the theme. :mrgreen:

Awesome Run, Awesome scenery, simply one of the best Australia Days I've ever had.

So you two enjoy the sparkles, you earned em'.

Yeah a good run. Was damn hot though. One of the few times I've ever put the roof up for shelter from the sun. :lol:

hehehe.......i contemplated leaving the roof on for the run home......let the car cool down while we said goodbyes to a few.........we got in the car........i turned to kim & said \"i can't do it\"........she said \"i knew you couldn't\" :lol:

had a fantastic time, didn't get to speak to a fraction of those there, but enjoyed every minute just the same :mrgreen:

Congrats Jackie and Ted. I don't know how you did it!
Yep, the trip back was nicer with the roof up and back window out. Man, how hot was it???

Hey, thanks Kitkat for the new desktop too!

thanks guys for a great run, i think i got stuck in the slightly evil group most of the cars we're mutated in some way, i was getting worried about not keeping up until i thought about the number of superchargers and semi slick tyres that where ahead of me.

You were worried! I had to try and keep them behind me and I left my semi's in the garage (what supercharger?)

Got to love the sound though! At least you fitted in with the rollbar :mrgreen:

Cheers,
