Matt930 Posted 4November, 2013 Report Share Posted 4November, 2013 HI All; Just wondering if any of you lot are also planning to come along? I'm personally all booked in and looking forward to it just a little bit! That was until I seen the Weather Forecast - Bugger me! Saturday: Showers - likelihood of rain - 90% Amount: 10mm - Temp: 1 degree overnight to a Max of 5! Sunday: Showers - likelihood of rain - 90% Amount: 20mm - Temp 1 degree overnight to a max of 4! Yipppeeee! And of course I had to go and bloody disconnect my heater set-up with the new turbo kit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgy Posted 4November, 2013 Report Share Posted 4November, 2013 I was really wanting to go, just didn't line up for me... but I feel better now seeing the forecast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caver Posted 4November, 2013 Report Share Posted 4November, 2013 Not going this year, but a word of caution. There will be a lot of motorcyclists in the area after the big Charity Ride event last weekend. I was on a Snowy Drive at this time last year and there were heaps of bikers still in the area 1 and 2 weeks after the event. 99.999% of them are top people who are just out for a ride in the high country. Stay safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 4November, 2013 Report Share Posted 4November, 2013 Say Hi to Steamwolf. He is racing at the Snowy mountain 1000 over the weekend at Coma airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt930 Posted 5November, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 5November, 2013 Yeah no Shit! It would be interesting with some cars doing 250+ in the wet and VERY cold conditions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 5November, 2013 Report Share Posted 5November, 2013 I don't thing the clerk of the course will let them race if its wet. It was freezing last year but my 2 class wins made up for it lol. Jim's in the same classes as I was so he should do alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caver Posted 6November, 2013 Report Share Posted 6November, 2013 Snow!!!???? Well, that should keep the motorcyclists at bay then. We'd better organise a nice warm SMT for you to thaw out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caver Posted 11November, 2013 Report Share Posted 11November, 2013 Matt....how was the trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt930 Posted 11November, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 11November, 2013 Un-Freaking Real! I drove nearly 1450K for the 3 day round trip and basically not a straight 2 lane bit of road in any of it Pretty bloody happy. My trusty old steed did really well up there too, sticking it to much newer cars, and never skipped a bit (little oil leak now gone too!?!) despite endless miles of 'spirited' driving, so she's earnt herself some cudos there! All in all, a great weekend. TIT, i will get that reply message to you shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
