    Yah, August should be fine for the rolla, it has to be done by then anyway.

    Are these things normally a Saturday or Sunday event?

    Put aside $20 a week between now and August and that'll cover the day and petrol and some.

    grab the hilux diff, weak drivelines limit your enjoyment and always put a worry in the back of your mind when out having fun

    The ACT Supra Club are actually doing this on Sunday 29 June, so come out and watch if you would like to see what it's like.

    We might have some spots available, but this will be at very late notice (this Friday), so if anyone is interested shoot me a PM and I can put you on the reserve list.

    Depending on how this day goes, I might be keen on another session.
