I'll second all of you on the critique of the day!
It was an enjoyable day all round, and I think the Holdens attracted more interest than any other club cars at the event.

The weathermen also got it right, which is a bit of a surprise, but a good omen for the club meets.

Nice pictures on the site Paul (ukhsv)!
I'll send you mine when I've uploaded them to the PC.

We had a quick blast (legal autobahn speeds of course!) and went straight to the pub for a couple of wind-down drinks so I didn't get the photos out yet.

Did anyone get a photo of my exit from the event?

As Will made an entrace I though I would perform the exit routine >?

Paul (GSE-Monaro) I couldn't get a look at your pitures as they don't come up on the machine I'm on currently (work machine!) I'll have a look tonight at home.

See most of you at the ACE.

Cheers

Great to meet you all and such a pleasure to spend the day with other V8 nuts...been a long time! Sorry Rob did not mean to exclude the "golden" holden. Our trip home was a little less exciting - trapped in bulk traffic all the way - had no chance of opening her up! If all goes well we will both see you at the Ace Cafe (Eric, if we spot you we will play on the way down).

Hope nobody minded the occasional Monaro/HSV exhaust 'sound off' between myself and Will - it certainly got the crowd interested! (& far better than techno hip-hop from a subwoofer..)


Nice one - a man of my heart

Great day, thanks to everyone.

Just have to share this with you:
Nice stretch of dual carriageway, I see the red Ferrari in front is going to over take so I hang back & let him make his move, he duly overtakes, I give the HSV everything and am amazed that not only am I keeping up but could have overtaken him too, quickly off the throttle and the Ferrari is still gunning it, realises I am not following so he slows down and pulls in. I go past him at 40 MPH and he tucks in behind. After about 5 minutes he gives up following, as I’m not playing.

I really think I scared him; I must have been 6” off his rear bumper under full bore.

Te hee



Even with that trophy in the boot extended into the car - excellent
