6.15 am Sunday Morning and l get
a text message from Bruce ARE U GOING? .
YEP IT'S NOT RAINING HERE l
reply .
OK C U AT THE SERVO .says Bruce
.
So in 15 mins we meet at the BP
servo Hampton Park
By now it was pissing down .
Bruce gets out of his Cobra and
say's " what do you call this??"
Oh come on mate l say , the guy
on the radio says clearing showers so it
should be OK .
So off we go , as we get onto
the Fwy the rain has not stopped , in fact it
rained all the way to the Burnley tunnel . the
next stop was the have Breaky at Mc D's on
Sydney Road just near Ford where we were to
meet up with Dale . and to watch the never
ending steam of new BA GT'S, heading up to
their birth place FPV Headquarters for the 9th
FPV OPEN DAY .
While eating, my phone rang and
it was Mark Pace asking what time he and his
John Goss had to be there , we told him not to
worry as there would be plenty of time and
that we would save him a place.
We had a great spot this year ,
right up the front near the main gate so the
flow of spectators through out the day was
never ending.We were also near a tap as our
two cars were almost brown and needed to be
cleaned before the public was allowed to enter
So in the end 4 of our club cars were on
display .
A big thank you to Bruce, Dale and Mark,
Stephanie & Caden for braving the weather
and a special thanks to Dale for cooking the
BBQ lunch .
Cheers.
