I can fully endorse what Paul has said - the arrangements were first class and I can't think of anything that you forgot. All the recipients of Steve's thoughtfulness were absolutely blown away. Just ask the Jones boys. All we needed was for the bloody Aussie taxi buses to actually arrive. They were two hours late in finally picking us up so there were some bleary eyes at 6.30 on Sunday morning and the guys had to race. It was bad enough just spectating.

Can anyone help identify this character. Was seen lurking around in a Media vest.[ATTACH]19665[/ATTACH]

Jeez he looks dodgy. Better phone that mobile number and sign him up !

Here are some of my photos of the Fahey car - looked just as I remembered it.

I would say by the look on his face that he was surprised by another dodgy character

After looking at Dewi's video I would have to ask where else in the southern hemisphere could you see a field of 24 historic 1960's V8 muscle cars on track together and their driver giving them a bit of wellie to boot.

Like I said in a previous post if this is pure heaven I ain't going nowhere, this confirms it I ain't going nowhere! Now where is that rich bachelor uncle of mine....!

That is the actual Allan Moffat race transporter from back in the day.

Nigel MacDonald leads the pack with ATA sponsor Anthony Tenkate next to him.

This is also a good one, Steve Malam in Murray Browns 70 Camaro with Craig Stacey(Javelin) next to him coming thu "Hungry" corner on the rolling start lap. Steve went on to win this race.

Yes GD66, that is the "real" Moffat transporter, Bowdens used it to transport one of the Mustangs to Lakeside on the Sunday.

Great to see this irreplacable car being thrown around lakeside in under 60 sec!

A few more shots of a very memorable weekand at Lakeside.
