Well, I got a fair bit of stuff using wraiths mates video camera.
Just give it some time (maybe a week) for the vids circulate around and to come out (as AVI's) to post up.

Oh yeah, one more pic on the Handbags challenge:

Don't worry Matt, we got your 14.74 sec pass on video.

Cheers,
Rick.

What happened to the VK?

well what do i say...

as i was driving home on the monash freeway i felt a vibration, stupid me thought 10 minutes from home i will check once home. it got a little worse then all of a sudden something goes bang and i am trying desperately to get it off the road.
once off the road i discover i am missing one of the back wheels!

so we go searching for the wheel, find it then wait for Chris with WYLDLC to let me borrow his jack so i can put it back on.

so yes i got home eventually travelling at about 20kph the rest of the way home.

Sounds like you had an eventful trip. Bummer

But more importantly, is the Torana back from the body shop?

Wow guys!

Looks like it was an awesome event yet again! You did us proud!

The times sound really good and it sounds like you all had some fun which is what it was all about!

How was the weather in the end? What was the total number of entrants after all?

Once again well done and thanks to everyone who helped organise the day.

Cheers!
