Don't worry Buck', we'll have to wait around for the "slower" cars to catch up so I'm sure we'll be able to meet up...

We had around 30 small fords on the start line at Bathurst this year in mid Feb 07.
There is an awesome photo going around. Hope you can do the same. The Bathurst drive is fantastic especially in 460hp cossie powered vehicles |

Looks like at this stage there will be 2 XR5's from Canberra coming. Myself and another, and I am trying to rally a few others. I have a pass from the Mrs. Woohoo

Ives, we are aiming to meet at McGraths Hill. Getting out from Canberra at 6.30, north side, so we figure maybe 2 1/2 hours to McGraths Hills should see us getting there on time. I investigated the lithgow option, but I think the shortcut involves some unsealed road.

Thanks Ives
10 am departures. I actually thought it was 9.30. Just re-read the post. This is better, means we will definatley be there within time and will get a break before we head off to Bathurst. Thanks. A number will be great idea. I'll send you mine as well. Cheers Dwayne

Geez ... if you guys make it along as well ... I think i am going to need another memory card for my camera ... lets hope the weather is good so I can take pics.
Looking forward to seeing a decent turnout ... should be good. Don't worry .... I'll be the slowest one of the day.
