Sound's like it's all going well fella's. Glad you called into the ranch, it was great to put some names to faces and have a (quick) look at a your zed's. I should of lent you a set of pace notes for the gorge, just to show how they worked? remember keep those windows clean and catch ya soon,

I'm not sure what Hunter meant by rosebery, is that a vehicle inspection place or something? and no I haven't been there 

I wasn't sure if you were being serious so for the sake of not being an ass I didnt say anything. Rosebery is a town on the west coast of tassie

[DoctorZ]

Ha, well I guess I was being a bit of a dumb-ass then !! 
Was a good day at the track today. Thanks to all the boys today for welcoming us and extra thanks to Lurch for taking me around in the 240z, twas a blast! but tell Bruce to stop being lazy and get a 5 speed  would ya!
You people just got me motivated to get my zed over here. I was tossing up the idea of selling it but how could I possibly do something so shameful. Especially since I live 30 minutes from Symmons Plains.

Well I got in about an hour & a half ago. I'm STUFFED!
8 Days & 1600kms later & THE BEST Driving holiday ever.
A HUGE thanks to everyone who came:
Craig, Gordo, Dave C, Bruce, Evan, Simon, Brian & Hodgie.

An MASSIVE thanks to Craig for the huge job of organizing it all & thanks to the SPAmaster for letting me flog his 240 around Tassie.

Pics to come later!

Well what an awesome trip boy's. Thanks for the laugh's and great company. Well that was the best driving I have done since the last time I was down there 2 years ago. Thredbo is good. But Tassie still is the last frontier. Awesome roads and good to do a few new things. Visiting Stanley and going on the Eco tour. Man that tour was in the words of Bruce (No relation) Special!
I will do a write up of the trip and video/DVD to come later. Plenty of pics to go up in the mean time soon.
All you guys who couldn't make it are really missing out. Hope you can come along next time.
Oh and thanks a million Mick for getting me those brake pads. Your a legend. Hope your car is back on the road soon.
Cheers

Glad you all got home safely. Just after I got back in to Launceston an Ambulance went up the hill toward perth and my wife turned to me and said "hope that's not for one of the guys at the track".
It was one of those nervous laugh moments 
However since moving to Taz I've come to the conclusion it's safer to be on the race track than dealing with Tassie drivers on the highway!

WHAT A BLAST! Best week i've had in a long time. Thankyou all for the great company and to meet a few Tassie guy's aswell. The old man (Brian) is now on the road back to Echuca 2 1/2 hrs away.
Here is a couple of pics for now and I will upload a heap to Photobucket asap.
See you all again soon
