....what's this I hear about a rally and a potato cannon?  

Yeah, we got Gun control here so a bit hard ta hide mine on tha bike. But we got "Ashes" and a lot of comraderie happening in your State on March 9th. (Under Home page go to "Downunder topics) at Bellingen. Only spoke to the Bellingen Lodge yesterday and there`s a room or two for ya, if you`re quick. Also check your PM button at tha top of this page. We`re hoping you can join one of the FJ convoy`s heading North. It`d be great ta see ya there. (Quite a few ladies accompanying there partners too!).  Also try this link:

Jeff0308, I found mine on gumtree but I think it was listed on ebay also so you probably did see it. Mate, I spotted your red and white FJ and even had it on my short list for a little while but it being up in Qld and me in Sydney I looked at the local ones first. Club rego is awesome but out of the question for me unfortunately as I commute on her every day.

Jeff0308 - never mind, I was thinking of dogtired - it was his recently acquired red & white FJ that I was thinking of when I wrote that post.

Jeff, mine came from the Latrobe Valley in Victoria.

I got mine from shepparton last October. The guy i got mine froms mate had an identical and sold it a month later. Totally original even the exhaust.  Went for $2200 no reg or RWC

Were gonna have a potato cannon this year, Kookaloooo!!!!! 

Yes , the fabled awesome (made by Marsh) potato cannon is under repair and will be at the WCR this year in petaluma.
As Rally quartermaster I was entrusted with the weapon and other rally equipment .
It failed just before the porterville rally last year . this year it will be rebuilt and ready for action to combat the red power ranger and prevent monkey bites.

I am not sure if the Drum is West Coast thing. It seems to be in all the East Coast rallies.

[rktmanfj]

I think tRoy still has that damned fkg drum.   

[Mark Olson]

Sorry no drum, that is a east coast rally object.

there are a lot of Mark's in this group.

I go by MarkO

I try to use Monkey Mark for the Red power ranger.

so nobody gets confused who they are talking to.
