[JoJo]

Weather forecast on the radio this arvo said Sat and Sunday will be early frost, then FINE and SUNNY!

This morning paper is not so encouraging, but I hope you are right. Been so many wet hillclimb last year , sort of over the novelty if you know what I mean .

[JoJo]

Yo Tyrie, It's happened again with the SDMA entrant confirmation. I got another email today with confirmation and a DIFFERANT running order number to the first one they sent me. Now its changed from #3 to #7....... Strange system they got happening.........

[airocobra]

Jo Jo , Not sure what you are getting from them but the 1st number they send me is my entrant number and the 2nd number always after the entry close date is my starting position .

[JoJo]

Hmmm, ok.

Whats your running number this week Bob?

[Tyrie]

I found mine, in my junk box...
Two running numbers, 15 and then next one said 16.

[airocobra]

yet to get a start number ????

[JoJo]

sure do.. Part of the new entry system....

Just was putting the Sprinter on the trailer , when I notice a funny ( ha ha !!!!! ) noise from the engine bay . Checked a few of the obvious things --- nothing identified , but it was a noise that was only going to end in tears . Took the fan belt off and noise is no more . BLOODY WATER PUMP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. So have some tea , get my son's project AE86 out of garage and the fun begins . Son's engine has a new water pump so .................. , he wont notice he's out partying. Hope it all comes together and I make it tomorrow ??????? .
Also if I do all this work and the WORLD ENDS TONIGHT ----- JEEZ I AM GOING TO BE PISSED.

I think I am getting to old for this shit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JoJo]

Was a great day today. The rain held off and some new PB's were achieved....
I got a PB 49.73sec, as did Bob, also with the exact same time.....

[Toddski]

Woot! Excellent work. Better than my PB - 49.75.

And what is it with you and equal times?

[JoJo]

I bet you cant wait to get out there again toddo....

[Tyrie]

Congrats to Joe and Bob for the PBs, I managed a personal best time for the micra of 55.08, would have been an easy 54 on the last run but found the gap between 1st and 3rd on the top straight, then got 1st, then finally got 3rd. Still managed a 55.5 on that run.

I was very impressed by a v8 commodore wagon running type1/2 >3000cc on RS-Rs, was well into the 49s!
