A little something to keep your spirits elevated in this worrying, lack of rallies time:

I hadn't seen that before, what a great video.

Yes, what a fun time. Randy did an outstanding job with that rally.

Thanks Andy!

Great video work Andy, but I see one award is missing from your video...

You started out so "strong" I seem to recall



It resulted in the honor of the great WCR legend, which I am not sure has been bestowed yet has it...?



This is a great photo, your rider-less FJ and the honorary shirt in the same shot.

I live not too far from here .....





...and have a photo of the FJ under the street sign - it's the actual street (lane) name.

I know a couple of people that had them at their high school dance!

Thanks for the positive video comments. They are enjoyable to make and I think they are a good reminder of how much fun is had at a rally.

As for my early retirement in the clutch holding game, I needed my beer hand back.  :wacko3:


Ok, you saw through that.  :flag_of_truce:

Actually Craig Z. won convincingly and if you take a look at Craig's upper body build, compared to my upper body build, then you'll see where the clever money was bet. (I'll always remember watching him put his Fj on the center stand and figured he put as much energy in as I do using my side stand).

Yes, you lucky Melbournites, having an AC/DC lane, and you equally fortunate Pertheans having a statue and Bon's final resting place. Because I'm a super fan, a pilgrimage trip is planned for sometime in the not too distant future.
