All right, this will be a smaller report than my last efforts, but here goes.

The day was hot, bloody hot, & with the cloud cover keeping the heat in it drove the humidity through the roof without it actually raining. It was all I could do to keep the perspiration off the camera & off the inside of my specs.

The racing was pretty hot too but I was concentrating on the cars in the pit area. To be honest, there wasn't too much that really excited me except for our somewhat informal 'TEAME DATSUN 1200'
I was hangin' out for the Carpenter Bros. KB10, but it ultimately proved to be a no-show which was sad because both Daniel & I are keen to catch up with each other & swap a few KB10 stories.
Next time Daniel.
Now for some pictures.


<----First up we have the very attractive 1200 coupe of Jeff Hanson. A great lookin' ride you have there Jeff, it's no 'ar farsed effort at all. It sounded really strong & fast, but it developed an oil problem with some of it making it's way onto the suspension area.
It's just a minor development problem Jeff, & I'm sure that it's an easy fix.




















Next we see 'The Boss' in the lineup waiting his turn. The heat took its toll on many drivers, but the canteen did a roaring trade in drinks.
What's that other car doing in the racecar area, must be some damn photographers ride.



<----- This is the little car that can. Aiden's car is being steadily improved as time & money allow, & the change of wheels with a bloody good set of tyres have made a big difference. This in turn has allowed an improvemet in times, & the skill level is steadily improving. It is stored in The Boss' workshop, so it couldn't be in better hands.
Oil fitting problems were overcome, but a suicidal gearbox part spoiled the day in the end.
I think that we should all get acustomed to seeing this one as with any luck, it will be going places, .... fast.



















Next up we see The Boss at work in the office giving a bit of hurry up to some barely recogniseable P.O.S. I took this shot at full 22 power magnification as an experiment. It came out better than expected, but not as good as I wanted.


Unfortunately, I had to leave before the day was done as I had far to go & an LSD to pick up before the even longer drive home. I just gotta put aircon in my ride.
