Hey Mark!

Good to hear that you kept a few runners. Johann mentioned that you’d sold off most of the collection.

Beach run could be good. Any decent dirt tracks (like Thorneside) up your way?

If you feel like breaking some stuff, there’s always Boondall as well!

Hey Paul. No tracks that I have found yet. Just take cars to the park at Golden Beach or Happy Valley.

If there are tracks up here I have been told. Have to catch up with Conrad and Dave Redzone to find some decent spots.

My father in law still does boats at Boondall so should come down one Saturday and shatter some plastic. Still have my Super Hornet and Lunchbox for such occasions.

let me know if you guys are ever up this way and catch up, even for a coffee and talk about the old times.

Hey Mark, we (me and the fam that is) are definitely keen for a visit your way, for us its just a matter of finding a free weekend. I suspect it'll be closer to Christmas or maybe just after when we are free.

If you do decide on a Boondall visit, let us know and I'll try and make it too.

Hey Johann

Yep, I’m keen for a run soon.

Ironically, I’m actually up Mark’s way at the moment as I’m on holidays with the kids for a week.

we'll be up that way next weekend too (13th) , but have family stuff on so won't have a lot of time.

Hmm, better check over some cars too and get my Wild Willy setup for running.

Would you prefer a beach or a park?

bummer, we've had to change our plans, and won't be able to drop by, but would be up the following week if you are around.

Howdy, yep I'm still around, I just don't get a chance to run my cars much. Hope you've been well, its been quite awhile.

I would be keen for drive if the timing works.

I think Peter lurks around here now and then too, Mark I haven't heard of for a while, I think he is still up Sunshine Coast way.

Yeah been way too long. Good to hear you're still around Johann and have some cars to run.

Happy to work in with your availability. Weekends work best for me. Have 3 kids these days so don't have alot of time to myself but they are getting older and lots more independant.

We can just do something local to make it easy. I'm still at Mt Cotton so not too far from all our old local haunts!

I'm probably only good for a Sunday drive, and any thoughts as to where?

I'd better start prepping some cars, I haven't driven any in years either

Sunday works for me. 

Maybe Thorneside? Pretty vintage friendly. 

Not sure how the cars will hold up. They seemed OK when the kids ran them in the yard the other day, although my Thundershot sounded a bit rough.

I could provably make time this weekend, but I won't have any cars to run. 

Did we want to pick a date like the 14th or 21stof July?

Yeah, let's not do this weekend - too short notice.

Let's maybe aim for the 21st so it gives us time to prep some stuff.

Do you have a preference for morning/arvo?

I'll pencil in the 21st, unless you have a preferred date Peter, at this stage I am not fussed on morning or arvo.

Cool. 

I may have something on the night of the 21st so either morning (like 10 or 11) or early arvo works for me.

I think 10 works best for me, now do decide what to run!
