    Team Gooch will be flying the flag at Brendale tomorrow night in stock. Ill run the GT as well just need to try a few things out with the car. Then off to Chargers Sat morning with the monster truck so I can conquer those jumps. Cant make Bayside, but it looks like Sparksy might need to shake off some of those cobwebs 😛

    Well after a week on the play station I have finally beaten my 5 year old grandson at Crash Bandicoot – yahoo
    In between gluing up a set of tyres for the Truggy for next weekend – man they are big compared to touring car tyres – well actually Scott glued them up and I stood around watching.
    Had a look at the track yesterday and it looks awesome – if you think there are bumps on Bayside wait till you see this.
    Been cleaning up and inspecting a second hand 1/10th stadium truck (nitro) for a customer in Brissy – Schumacher Riot – we’ll be going out to give it a test run if it ever stops raining.

    Well Brendale ran a great meet tonight. I didnt pay much attention to GAS, Ashley may be able to shed some light on the results there.
    Anthony won Mod, I had the Shui planted all night except for the 2nd heat when I lost both front body pins and started impersonating pacman 😆
    We were all put into novice electric and I think one of the boys running super stock won overall with Clinton second and me third….I think 🙄 Again I tried to grab the results off the board but someone beat me to it.
    It’s a great facility out there and it’s a very nice track to run on, hopefully well see more stock/super stock drivers out there getting practice for the third interclub.
    vazzo signing off for the evening.
    Have fun at Meakin guys. Dont forget to post results below.
    Cheers

    Heavy Anzac day is not every weekend. Sparksy I will bring some panadol with me next weekend. You have to be sharp in the pits. We need to beat Heavy with that CEN. 😆

    Heavy I would never underestimate the CEN and your driving experience. I just have doubt on who maybe your pit crew. 😕 😕 This is the deciding factor. 😉

    Just a tip Tony – check the fine print on your contract with Sparksy – not sure you have really got him signed up – just a rumour I heard – and a good pit crew if worth a lot – you’ll need one to beat a CEN.

    Sparksy, rip up the old contract. Got u a new one. The Mugen must beat Heavy on it’s debut. What could be better than pitting with Mugen still on run-in settings and watching it goble up a CEN. 😯 😯 😆 😆
