Well, the Torry won't be there... Even with some help from Ryan last night.. Got the trans in... But cracked the bellhousing...

Should have just taken the motor and everything out... That way i know everything would have been correctly aligned... So now the car will just sit for a few more months!

WILDUC will be there, but dont be suprised if I pester some people for a ride in their car up to Maroondah Dam! OrangeLJ will be with me, so we have to show him that real Toranas are big and have V8's in them!!! HAHA!

LOL Matt and I both riding shotgun this year :P. Not taking mine obviously, in it's state there just might be something quite dangerous about driving mine down with no hanging panels and using a slab of lemonade as a seat :P.

Ah well should be a great day, good opportunity to take some on road shots!

Great day, I called up LhMusl and got him off his arse out of bed and cruised up to the meet point in convoy with the red rocket.

Sixty something Toranas there today, great turnout. Seems to be steadily increasing in numbers every year which is just great

The organization of the event was great and as Anthony suggested, the gods were on our side haha nothing but nice sunny weather. Absolute pleasure to go to, good to catch up with some people I haven't seen in ages and meet some new faces. And I Luke informed me that the 'Gasoline' camera did a nice pan over our two cars when they did some kind of intro to the segment. Stoked

What an awsome day. The weather man did a great job with the sun & blue sky. Thanks to the organisers & volunteers from the VTC who help out with this event.

Good to see everyone dust off their Toranas & make the effort for the day
