Yep, I hired from a BP and it snapped a leaf spring bringing my SS home. I did notice though, they have upgraded their fleet now..

That's the same mob that supply all the servo trailers.......Handy Hire


Ahh..didnt realise, well i guess then you could inspect the integrity of the trailer before you hire it, they're usually out the front

Many thanks for the offer doogs but i was just making a suggestion to for someone, my UC is no trailer queen, im driving it there, racing it, and driving it home, i just hope i dont break anything in the process *touches many wooden surfaces*

(however if i ever need a trailer i know who to ask :D)

Doogs mate that Trailer doesn't like lowered Toranas much!

No probs Brad.

Lol to be honest Heath, that trailer does not even like towing at the moment ! It needs brakes pretty badly and does not tow the best. When we get some decent length ramps for it we won't have to find a mound every time we load/unload!
It does the job, but it's not ideal. I thought it might be better than a servo trailer though.

Well I still haven't seen a firm date ???

I could be interested in bringing my Torana for a run.

So are you driving this bus mr5000? I just need to know who to talk to in regards to the Torana Nationals being discussed elsewhere on the forum. I assumed Matt was looking after the Vics until I actually bothered to read this thread.... ooops :D

Ryan, if you want Russell's number from Heathcote, I can forward it to you if you want to talk to him. Who knows he might give us the option of a club only day.

haha yeah i just sorta took the drivers seat when i realised matt was sitting in the back haha
i sent russel a email about orginising a club day but because the numbers we have pulled last few years they arent that confident we can pull enough

so i thought wed just do the same as last year and all tag along on a test and tune
