Living in Yinnar, population of about 500 people. Located in the Latrobe Valley (if all that means nothing to you, very close to where your electricity comes from)

Will be moving across to Sale in a bit over a week, population.... hmmm, alot more than 500

:

Love the area for it's motorbike riding locations more than anything...... possibly the best place in Australia for trail riding

Pretty good place to live, very motorsport oriented town with:
2 speedways (car/bikes)
Jet boats
Annual ski race
Go kart track
Motorcross
Drag strip

Very hot dry climate, but being on the river its great for camping

Wolf, I'm a Mildura man too.... let you know next time I'm back should catch up for a cruise... are the boys in blue still a$%#oles to drivers of nice old cars back there?

Agree with you on motorsport.... Easter is mad.

glad to see im not the only one from mildura

gotta love the sunset strip (our drag strip)

im in for the cruise.

The other 5 days is for booze and bowls I suppose. Oh, and a pub that just very recently got Keno available. Yeah. Beat that.

Naracoorte in the south east of S.A, population over 5000 dunno exact the old sign on the way in says this...lol. lived here my whole 18 years nearly 19. Surrounded by vineyards and the odd cave.
Boring as, no race tracks (motorsport ones anyway) and virtually nothing to do with motorsport or cars here. Drag strip 1/8 mile (or runway) bout half an hour away which has a SEDRA meet couple times a year thats about it

Oh my god, i used to call Edenhope home (population 1000) up until last year. You've probably seen my car around, i was in Naracoorte last week haha. What do you drive???
I'm gonna be working in naracoorte for the next month on the vineyards there. Oh the joy :(

Franky · 11-06-2005, 02:02 AM

Portland, a small crappy town of about 8,000-10,000 people. It's exactly an hour from Warrnambool and roughly 4 hours from Melbourne.

oneredED · 11-06-2005, 06:05 PM

Just out of interest, are there any members in Horsham? I went through there last week and saw about 4 really nice EA/EB/ED's. A nice red SVO with mint paintwork, a black EB XR8 with FR18's and a super clean white ED dumped with EL GT's... Put my car to shame LOL.

I have a holiday place in Natuna Pde, and I hate it with a passion.
It's a dump. I intend to sell it and find a nice place down the NSW south coast.
