Unfortunately I'll be busy with the MG NatMeet at Easter. It's a shame, especially to be missing the Volvos! :mrgreen:

Yes the queenslanders won overall including the TURTLE racing. . "Just I thought I would hi lite it in Maroon...
" For those wondering what this Turtle racing is must attend a interstate challenge to find out...... but we only make the turtles during the 1st few nights of the weekend and no animal cruelty is performed"
Great time had by all and drive home was great.

Thank you to all great new & old MX5 friends.

Also as per above the pics and video are great stuff Stu. I linked to all in NSW non forum.
