Yeah I ordered some Cobras for the 911 on Ekka Weds and they showed up on the following Monday. I placed the order for these seats and a harness for the MX5 last Weds; harness arrived yesterday and the seats first thing this morning.

Same from the US. I order a bit of stuff from Pelican Parts and most of the time it's delivered within a week.

When I called Suncorp yesterday to get my CTP extension, gave the woman my rego, and she says "And I guess it's for the 9th of September right? You guys get out there a lot, don't you?" Must have had a few calls lately.

Well done CN!!

Just back from watching 'practice' at Lakeside, enough to freak anyone out when they ran one group with 38 cars!!! Saw Sonke & Francois getting some practice and also Thomas in the Celica, he can't make Monday at QR so today is his fun!!

Did they run in tintop and open top groups, or 4/6/8 cylinder groups?

All good to go, wheels swapped over, brakes checked, quick check underneath whilst the car was in the air and all good.

Looking forward to a good day and should go a little quicker.

Tank is full, car has been checked, forms are filled out, cake is in a box, water bottles are in the freezer.
Clothing wise, I take it a cotton turtleneck will suffice? Gonna be bloody hot! O.o
SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW! :D
