No worries Mahn, we are more than happy, i think Stacey actually enjoys the BBQ's now. We a top weekend, i will have to get my photos up next week when i get back from canberra and the great race is over but they will be up, i might even get around to posting the photos from the last BBQ.

Oh, and it was Brendan not Bradley.

That was three days of great driving, surprisingly little damage and a lot of laughs .

Thanks Matt and family (etc, etc) for an excellent weekend, it was a real pleasure to meet Mahn, John, and Jason. I really enjoyed it.

I'll post my photos during the next couple of days in the folder One Iota has made for us, and I'm looking forward to seeing the video footage.

You are more than welcome dave, its great to have people over and socialise.

I watched the footage when i got home, it makes the tracks look easy, the battery went flat half way through you getting up the rock shelf, but it made the track look flat, you couldnt see how nasty the step actually was, lets hope some of the photos do it justice. Matt

One way around this problem is mounting the camera to the dashboard, but then you don't get the outside shots that make the whole experience worthwhile

I concur with my fellow Brain Scientist (sorry for those who missed it you had to be there).

Day two was good, but would have been better if there hadnt been a **** load of trees down on the track and a **** load of jap crap infront of us all day. They did clear the trees for us, even if they did it the hard way.

But it was entertaining watching them confuse themselves. After all, as you said, it wasn't rocket surgery!

I think the only reason the road got cleared was because of the guy with the chainsaw that seemed to work like a lightsabre (plunge into tree and press downward, look, the tree is cut! - I want one!) and Jason with the "ARB Lever".

Yeah, it certainly was a magic little chainsaw, as for the ARB lever, that was truly brilliant, all vehicles should have one.
