Gday Narrele. Would be interested to know what this club is. Do they have internet site, or stickers on thier cars? So is it for just late models and XR's, or Ford in general?
Cheers. P.S I liked the display at the Lara Heritege Festival. Pick up any prizes there?

If you kicked on to the Casbar I would think afterwards many would be stopping off home at Grace McKeller............same age group
I am interested, live in Melbourne now, but Geelong born and bred. You can take the boy out of Geelong..............

i am also a new member to the xr and fpv car club of Geelong and they would welcome new members anytime. the great thing is that there is no cost to join and you never feel pushed into going to all the functions, drives etc. i did enjoy my first show 'n' shine at Lara a few weeks back and was even more surprised when i got runner up in the standard falcon class!! hope to see you soon.

Funny story about that day. Me and my mate were walking past the LS1 display and a bunch of Holden blokes admiring each others cars. I said to my mate quite loudly, "Geeze, is that piston slap I hear?" Im glad they got the joke, because i cant run that fast.
