Big Gaz your on the money and every chance at saving some money, so I can pour it in to the engine is a good thing, hence why all of us do heaps of our own work, and trying ridiculous things like painting gloss black. lol

Re: Lake Inspections 2012
For those interstate we can appreciate the extra effort and organisation in getting to the salt with short notice. We will be inspecting the lake and the options re placement of the track mid morning on Saturday. Once we have a decision either way, I will call Carol Haddfield on the sat phone from t...

Re: Lake Inspections 2012
No real change from John Moss's last weeks visit which is no surprise being that, it not only was a full moon but a super full one.

Re: It lives
Bike looks really good Dave, well done and Clare, who's not from the Clare family. I couldn't get the player to work but I can only imagine what it sounds like now, and plus I'll hear it soon anyway on the salt.

Re: Airstrip Attack
Guys I know the caretakers at Maralinga who are fantastic people. I have no doubt that if you wanted a bitumen experience it could be organised. Maralinga at the village has ample places to stay in and the strip itself is 2.5 k's long and the last time I was there was in great condition. It is wide ...

Re: Lake Inspections 2012
Yes agreed Chris and from now on we will have data that we can reflect back to and compare, which done correctly is invaluable. I with a few others intend to continue with the collation of data, not only up to this speed week event but beyond for future reference
