Fantastic weekend, haven’t had so much fun in a long time.. Good to see you made it home to James...

Troy BIG THANKYOU for your driver Training help you got me out there and pushing a little and damn was it fun... We wont mention anything outside of the track besides it being an awesome night... thanx again to all that came up and made it such a good weekend...

[Jamezilla]

Hehe - nearly didn't make it.

Apparently in Soviet Russia, 1/2 a tank means 'empty'. Stupid car - big thanks to Mike Lowery and Bris for picking up some more potato vodka to get the chunky Russki on his way again.

I'm going to have a little nap now - but will post photos this evening.

Wonder if Aaron has woken up yet...

Great weekend and big thanks to all involved. Good to meet several new people and consume a fair amount of alcohol also! I have a few pics from the drive up and Friday practice I will post up once the number plats have been suitably disguised.

Very cold weather but awesome company

Massive thanks to Snowy for driving me there and back also, much appreciated mate :lock:

I would like to add most memorable moment for me was Snowy and I heading for the bottle shop on foot from the pub carpark only to hear this sound similar to that of a car at a world rally round. We looked behind us back down this alley between the pub and the bottleshop to see Blaise in his WRX going side ways accross the pub car park without the use of a handbrake followed by a plume of dust and stones.

So just the typical misadventures. Pity I had to spend most of today hanging out with Leanne Tander and her race team.

Team Wang support Lada out at flagpoint 2

It was a beautiful day - just f*cking cold

Shop talk in the hotel carpark

When you order a parma with 'vegies' - one would expect more than 4

It starts...

Team Wang all armed with a Belfast Car-bomb.

Yes Troy - FOURTEEN. Leave her alone.

Some creative parking after a late-night stealthy beer-run

Benalia Station - every single sign now updated to match the GPS

The scene of the crimes

And - lucky last...

'She'll travel half a hectare on a single can of kerosene' - I must have forgotton to put it in H.

Top SAU form as always. A great weekend

Very lovely there fella's. Looks like good time was had by all. I had a very important 21st i had to attend which is why i was not there.

[Ronin 09]

off topic but spotted a tired looking James in the Lada cruising past Vic Market on Eliz st at just before 3 today...

EXKGB got a wash by the look of things!

[R31Nismoid]

sounds like another highly interesting weekend. Good to hear troy hasnt gone soft either

[Emre]

Only 14...???

Fark me, she has bigger boobs than snowflakes, so she qualifies.

Go for it Brisby !

[GTSR22]

hahah you kids

[Snowman]

Well that was another great weekend away.

It's not been really spoken of yet but the actual track stuff was great too.

Good work by some of the newbie's - William and Mavric. Matt if you can learn to drive like your teacher in Brisby then we'll all have plently of entertainment to watch in the future.

Was happy to help Blaise get the new WRX Club SM club track record by towing him along. Also since I let my co-driver for Dutton have a number of sessions of the weekend in my car was pretty good to see at the end of it we both recorded the same fastest time for the weekend! For me that was 4.5s faster than my previous best there.

Hopefully even more to come after the new springs go in on Wed. But fark me Frank was fast. And it was damn funny to look at Aaron after his session in Franks car. He was struggling to get a cigarette out of the packet as his hands were shacking! LOL. But I'm lucky the sessions of these boys in their co-drivers cars don't count else my finishing spot would be dropped from 2nd to 4th!

Oh - and speaking of co-drivers - 2 WRX boys are also doing Dutton next week. At the end of the day one of the co-drivers took the car for a drive and tried to keep pace with Blaise. Bad idea.

But once the sun went down the shenannigans were typicially brilliant. Benallia Wang Bangers are going to be a long term problem I can foresee.

Anyways.... time to re-group and think about Dutton next weekend.

Bring it on.

It's always these photos that need no description.

Oh yeah - the racing.

Sorry, was too busy freezing my ass off waiting for something to happen so I could wave a flag.

Smaugy looked much faster out there - very smooth too.

Some of those WRX boys push it pretty hard. They all sit on 3-wheels through the 'boobs' (especially the Evo VIII) and Mr Heskin LOVES his late brake points

Was a bit disappointed by the MX5s - but best sound of the day was a draw between the DC5 ITR and the M3. Love that NA snarl

Rahn, Go - Get to the Choppah!

[Bec]

Awesome weekend guys.

Had a great time and it was fantastic to have some new people along. - Hope you all had fun!!

Hopefully Aaron made it back from Benalia safely after we all left him in bed on Sunday morning.

It's also great we now have a substitute Wang drink (thanks to James) for when there is no Taco Bill margharitas nearby

Only 3 days to recover for Dutton - its going to be a big week I feel.

Team Wang broke me

that is all

[Roy]

Many more weekends like that and there wont be a Benella left, only Benalia.
