Yeah, nice long drive. But Ann agree it was one of the bumpiest routes we have experienced.

I was surprised how well the old NA handled that road. It seemed that the Konis got better as they got hotter. I'm also certain now that the style bar has stiffened the car up too. Apart from the noise from the BOV in the left seat :roll: and the slow 4WDs :evil: it was a fun run to Rathdowney.

P.S. I love your sigpic Andrew

Hehehehehe I had sooo much fun ! :-) But that bumpy rd sent my lil mixxy for momments of flight ! And I think it shook something loose, on the way home only one headlight would pop up... the other is firmly in the down position! She looks like she is winking, very cute, but not practical for night time driving! Any ideas guys ?

And Im still searching google for a complete discription of a Yowie!?

excellent day guys, many thanks to the organizers.

And that road up to woodenbong :shock: my a$$ left the seat a couple dozen times and im sure we'll be needing another new exhaust soon aswell.

But the roads before and after the border... bliss :mrgreen: I had muzza join me in the car while katie drove his... i got him holding on :lol:

Till next time...

Loose wire or connection? Maybe the plug for the motor needs a wiggle to make good contact.

Looks like a lot better than last year, sorry we couldn't make it. Glad that it all went well.

Some more pics

Best thing about leading a run is when you are presented with this and it is all clear!
