I've already got it down Gordz. Once we get a little closer to the event, I'll be emailing out the information for the Parade.

It may only have "half a motor" but the new one has a lovely snail hanging off the side of it!!! The blue one has now gone to the dealer, and I've got a 2003 XL Ute, as a loan car........ The slippery one comes to me on Thursday!!!! :

Just a photo from out the back while waiting.



Unfortunately the boys I left the camera with at the track had a little trouble getting it going so I only got one shot of the ute.



Also a quick (shortened) vid here from the lap. Plenty of footage of the back of Gordz's ute and also some good footage of the pits at the end.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrNO2qRxfvw

Finally one of my favourite shots from the race. Good old Lowndsy giving JC a little push along.




All in all a great weekend (except for the result). Thanks Brad for makin it happen. Even without drivers it was a buzz to do a lap of PI before the big race! Looking forward to Bathurst!
