Good start to the season - as per other peeps, big thanks to Greg and Sal
Some very interesting 'mods' to the site after the last digger session. Conditions varied from a.m. to p.m. - terra firma in the morning but as the day warmed up, so the surface conditions changed to becoming more slippy. Slope down to the old stump garden became a toboggan run as we all found out.
Good turn out with a few guys making their inaugrial visit. Also good to catch up with those of us have been there before.
I've got a few pics to upload when I've sussed how to do it on the laptop - mainly of Steve's truck flexing its stuff.

Cheers to Andy, Pete and co for the suspension advice. 3" higher at the front now to match the back. Much better and. Was easy peasy to doo. Also bashed out the dents! Ever heard of the 'rippled' body work fashion? It's all the rage yo.

Doing the photo upload yesterday, found some piccies from this meet that hadn't been posted, so turning the clock back 6 months, here they are. Mainly of Steve's 2.8 flexing it's stuff.
