Dry Lakes Racers Australia

Thanks for the update.
I cant believe our bad luck!
You and the other key members who make this event happen need to be congratulions on the great organisational and communication skills demonstrated in getting the info to the rest of the membership in such a timely manner.

Well done

Thanks for the early advice regarding the cancellation Rod. I could not make it to the Vic meeting today as I had just flown in from overseas.

Was any decision made regarding a proposed alternative date for 2008 or is all over til 2009?

Graeme

Please some one tell me we have nothing to worry about and the rain is just a passing shower!!

I am starting to get a complex. Since I decided to go to the lake it gets wetter the closer we get to the race date

Hopefully all will be ok when I get back from overseas in a week

Hi Ben, Have you perfected the carburation on the Lake G bike first ? I did three major changes to the Triumph before Mangalore and we all know how crappy it performed. I forgot the motto "one step at a time" Good luck on the Lake. Cheers Spook. As a first timer at this type of thing can ...
