Those last three were my best (which surprised me, they didn't feel like it) but I think I must have been showin' off cos you guys were watchin' me LOL

They had a couple on the shelf for hire today, about $20 hire. Nothing worse than a helmet which doesn't fit though and well umm sweaty helmets aren't much fun, but these should be dried out by the time you use it (get my drift )

I did get visitors from SAU today I think they brought me good luck.

At least I use the cars for what they were built for... not showponys, not all shine and no action.

Yes, the track is too small for this car really, but it doesn't stop me from having fun out there - I'm still pulling more than 130kph and getting up to 1.7 g's around some of those corners, its going much quicker than it looks. Some say it looks like its putting around and they can't believe it when they hear the times. Maybe I should get a camera on there so people can see how quickly you get to each corner (no time to think).

Don't get me wrong, I luv you guys and think it would be an excellent day (even with Chubbs ) - and wouldn't I love to put these two cars up side by side for fun, but as Neil said, those running in the same group would have to be aware that we brake much faster and take slightly different lines and we therefore on occasion lead people into places at speeds they normally wouldn't contemplate. Lets see how the numbers go, if you need some to make up the numbers and a couple of the fast runners don't mind waving us past, then we might be able to help fill out the numbers. And as Neil said, we'll still loves yas in the morning if you don't want us there LOL

Comin' from you... thats funny

We'll keep that in mind

You wouldn't know what to do with it anyway although... you might get FTD

There are a lot of cars dumped in Cotter Forest, it would be the first place I would look, they find new ones every day out there. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&...&iwloc=addr

Yeah they dunno wot they're missin' congrats on your win

I'm a pretty constant Rocketing Rabbit (which is the best I can do... sober LOL)

Surely they worm the farmed roos. Says here 'newly' identified... I've seen these worms going back to when I was a kid, they're not new worms, but perhaps newly identified, or a different species. ============= http://www.awpc.org.au/kangaroos/book_files/diseases.htm A newly identified worm thought to be derived from marsupials was found to be responsible for acute illness in two humans. Like Trichinella they invade muscles. The worms are thought to belong to a class of nematodes known as Muscpiceoids. In wallabies and possums these nematodes live in several tissues of the body and can invade muscles. In his paper to the University of Tasmania (1997 114 ), Professor John Goldsmid said, "Kliks (1983) identified the aetiological agents of human infectious diseases as "heirloom" or "souvenir" species, depending on their evolutionary association with humans. Amongst the most important of the souvenir species are the zoonotic infections, infecting humans as a result of animal-human contact of some kind and varying from companionable contact to utilisation of animals as a food source. In the last 25 or so years, of 35 new or newly recognised infections in humans, 20 (57%) have been zoonotic in origin - some trivial, some devastating to both the individual and the community. With the increase in the numbers of immunocompromised people in the community resulting from medical treatment or as a result of the spread of AIDS, the problem of zoonotic infections will continue and there seems little doubt that the likely source for many of these new human infections in Australia will be the native animal population. People who eat undercooked wallaby or kangaroo meat could be at risk of infection by a newly-discovered animal parasite, Australian doctors have warned. The parasite was found in a Tasmanian man who suffered from inexplicable and severe muscle weakness over a number of years. He was known to consume large quantities of game. ("Parasite Risk to Game Eaters" November 7, 1997 Animal Pharmacology No. 384) Laboratory tests suggests that the parasite is a new species of microscopic worm. It may also have been responsible for a similar infection in a New Zealand woman who had eaten wallaby meat while visiting Tasmania. ========= Still hungry?

Mark was saying there was a car burnt out on Laurel Camp Rd this morning (out from the Cotter) he can't remember what type of car, he remembers it was a 4 door but could have been a hatch, but did notice a hinged lid metal toolbox in back. PS its still smoking, so only fresh.

well, being an ex farm girl (for most of my life) I can say, that the roo is the only meat I have ever seen that has worms (long ones) through the flesh, mainly the meatier thigh areas and seem to be along the veins, but trust me (I'm not shitting you) its not just the gut.

I think this Sundays meet up and drive should be out to the Hillclimb to say hello to the rest of us

don't worry about your lights, it was probably the reflection from one of the frangipanis on his car

Not always, don't let it stop you from running, you're a member as soon as you pay. Just fill out the entry form and put TBA in the membership number field. Are you running this weekend?

where was this at? I can't think of a track which has a pole on it.

Oh Gungahlin... they have their own thread cos its so far away, go back to where you can see all the states and you will find Gungahlin on the list Well that almost makes up for the North Cooma cracks I get LOL

The SAE is broken? I don't always walk the track... but recommend it. Happy to walk around say around 8ish so we're back in time for the drivers briefing if you want.

Wooohooooooooooooooooooo twasn't me who was trying to get people out to the hillclimb for a change I'll be there I'm counting the sleeps. Entries close 8pm on Thursday for anyone interested in entering. $70, CAMS licence can be obtained on the day - www.sdmahillclimb.com
