I can still remember being with Tim, in his very noisy and very low GT40, cruising out to the end of the Spit(Gold Coast) and straight into QLD Trans roadside inspection.

Every single person, including police, Transport Officers, Tow Truck Drivers etc turned and watched as Tim just idled(rumbled) past them. I caught a few of the officers grinning.

The bugger was that it was also the only way out. We didn't want to push our luck twice, so waited a few hours in the cold until they left.

I can still remember the frantic conversation when we saw what was up ahead. Decided not to turn around in sight, just idle past as quiet as possible.
