Oooh.. if you guys are going to go up as a group then I might tag along. Don't know where I am going though so I will have to follow someone.. plus it means you all won't have to cram into one car

Blair is trying to borrow a big car ... into which many people may fit. Which will be good for saving on petrol.

Otherwise yes, I think it will be multiple cars.

I wasn't going to bother with Manfeild again. 99% of the cars just understeer their way around the course, which isn't much fun. I'd rather see them dancing around on gravel

I reckon viewing 6 and 10 is quite do able. The viewing point in 6 we went to last year was grouse. Don't know the names of the street / stage.

Coolness, so unless advised otherwise we have Blair, Leon, B1, Stace, and Guru heading North in the Taxi (assuming everyone wants to pile into one car).

We can then pick up Snoozin at Feilding McD's, and we've got ourselves a convoy! Then we go watch gravel throwing.

suggestion: while waiting for rally cars to turn up, a deck chair is a wonderful device.

Yes but as a rule you can watch manfield and still get to that point you are talking about in 6 and see all cars, then get to end of 8 for the 1st few and get to good viewing point on 10 which if i think where your talking about is the same place as me there's a big hill there. Climb the hill and see lots

Really only go to manfield to see who didn't make it through the 1st stages in the dark. And i still haven't found a route map yet.

Lyndsay i have my priorities good, have to go and supervise the girls building the truck so that they make it easy for me to convert back to car transport when i need to go places. You doing taupo, should be my 1st rally. Getting cage in 8 weeks and then be going hard getting everything mounted etc.

Converge on Blair's abode at half eight, and abandon your car there for the day.

Sweet, I will just need location of said abode and will come bearing deck chair (or two if somone needs one).

Location sent

by **Leon** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 12:15 pm

I pm-ed him the location of the local black power P house ... that would've been much more fun, as little white boy goes thumping on their door at half eight on a Saturday morning.

:twisted:

I didn't really, but it would've been evil.

by **gurutasker** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 12:28 pm

It's okay Leon, I know plenty of other black-power P houses I could go knocking on at that hour of the morning... And yes, some of them are open at that hour, did you want me to pick you up some? :wink:

by **Leon** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 12:48 pm

No thank you, I'm on a diet.

Na i haven't seen him for a while, is he still doing his mechanic thing or has he gone milking like he wanted to. Anyhow send me some pics of how your car is coming along, are you re-shelling or did you fix what you had??
