Hi Bennie
With about 60gb 4000 pic and videos it's hard enough to make a dvd out of it all i'm only half way through.
No we didn't make it to Mc donalds Hut we headed for Stobridge Hut got there to find it had burnt down:( and was fenced off. Got to Swifs Creek just before dark then to the pub to watch the Stat of Origin I will send you a copy of the dvd when it's finished.
pm me your address

I will put more videos up when i finish the dvd

Yes I can see it now.
Subarus on the starting grid at Bathurst.
Nissan are next year. Why not us?
STi should show them up, half the cylinders, twice the amount of fun.
Btw will Nissan have a v8?
