Yes there are plenty of us tragics sitting at home (oh, and working a bit) that can't be there. G'day piglet and fish! The Muppet, Todd and Ivan and Greg and Robbie group is going to have a pretty fast week, or bust something trying!
Cheers, Verena and Todd Joyce (now farming, no longer racing, bummer)

Good job with the updates guys. Really appreciate it.
I am following the Jeeps so any info you come accross would be good to hear about it. Hope Johnnie and Andrew get some good runs in the New TJ. No testing at all if they finish unscathed it will feel like a fairytale. The Venezualen team are a great and funny bunch of people. I hope there new car holds up to the outback. They are also untested. International teams raise the profile of our sport. So far it sounds like the locals are in there comfort zone though. But you never know what the outback has instore for you I guess.

Beware if doing repairs in Brocken Hill, someone tried to remove parts from the Zookie overnight. Brett and James were there doing repairs to some electricals after the water logging they got.

Unfortunately have no contacts at Poolamacca or Nundooka at this stage but may get news from Danni while she is in Broken Hill tonight.
Just had a quick call from Jonesy at Denian to say.........
- The Polish Jimny requires repairs in BH after its spectacular roll over earlier today. They attempted the sand wall anyway and dnf'd. As a bit of comraderie the remaining competitors pulled the Jimny up the wall using a winch extension strap
