Poetry in motion as you resurfaced the roadway with fresh rubber, but your lines weren't straight
Good Luck to all the NSW contingent.

Peter,
Better to have the diff seal go now rather than Winton.

Took the car for a run to bed the brakes in and diff.

All good, I have just got 5 days worth of work to get thru in 2 days then we are off.


Phil

Good luck guys, wish I was going again this year...just too much work and little extra cash for trips like that at the moment.

Will be definitely at Nationals. Without car again at this stage.

Hey guys,
From a checking-out-cars, speaking-to-Cobra-owners perspective, is it better to Head to Winton on Saturday or Wang on Sunday?

To everyone heading down for the weekend, all take care and keep the shiney side up.

The exception's being PhilM's car and Aussie Mike's car.
I think they have all the shiney stuff under there cars and flat paint (or gelcoat) on the top.

And I wanna see plenty of pictures, fingers crossed someone takes a laptop and digi camera and can upload the pics each night.

My wife is in Sydney this week so I will be home all alone over the weekend.

No, not officially. Last year we just borrowed air compressor from the other (more professional) teams. Superformance are always great guys when it comes to helping out.

For me, Saturday is THE day. When the cars are in the pits, you can talk to the drivers with their cars in front of them, in the shade. There are nice big gaps between runs, so plenty of time to talk to drivers in the pits. Sunday is half a day of motokhanas and then BBQ lunch.
