Yes only, 11 more days before the start of Round 1.

With every thing that is going on in the East of Australia be prepared to dig deep into your pockets for some fund raising for what has happened to our Countrymen/ladies down in Victoria. This has been a true ........ lost for words, sorry.

Anyway it would be great to send some help back to all those that have nothing left after a lifetime of hard work.

So if you can help out with prizes for a raffle/auction on Saturday night would be great. Just give me a call with what you are prepared to put up at this time.


That is the end of the important part now for the fun part.

[Dooma_]

MMM let us know if there getting as much rain as Brissy. It would be great if it was like last year Nice & muddy.

Damo

[Bosshog]

Hey Dooma

I thought you'd be the last person to ask 4 mud and rain .. I hear bob's got you putting a coat of polish on the old girl.. I guess with the added aero advantage the truck should at least get an extra 1/2 to 1 klm extra speed on the straights..
Coops

[XTREME MMM]

Sunday 15 Feb


Just got back from LMP, they have had only enough rain to settle the dust and make it a bit interesting.

I will be heading up there on Tuesday morning.

I will not have any email contact up there. If you need to contact me leave a message at LMP (07) 54973164, and I will try and get back to you.

SS are looking good, expect to have some fun.

All Friday SS will commence when it is dark. Drivers make sure you bring pen/pencil and a folder for the GPS SS

Briefing will be at 1630hrs; Main Stage holding area.

We will be moving out at 1800hrs for event area (Pig Pen)

Saturdays SS will be held in the area of Ironpot Road & Diaper Creek Test Track.

Sunday at the moment will be Tarago Pde.

Do not forget the Bushfire Fund Raiser on Saturday night at main stage during Midway Presentation Dinner.

If you can support this with any product or service would be great.

For the spectators or even other drivers/codrivers there will be some $10 "Hot Laps" with Lawrie Sternbeck and a couple of other chosen drivers to go into our fundraising efforts for the Bushfire Appeal.

Event HQ will be at Main Stage.

Competitor camping will be at Figtree Campground.
