It is a Vh and if we can make it on the 29th we will be there. We have invites to race from everywhere at the moment. We wanted to come down for the show after Christms but ended up missing out.

It is cool having a partner as a rev head, but gets bloody expensive! Mine pulled over a dozen trophys at only three events, for the car and her driving at Springnats and Gazzanats.
keep up the good work and tell her to get on the stall a bit harder...Not unless she's going to embaress you...
