Thanks Merv - just hold the button down and hopefully get a couple of good ones. Marshalling area.
Weather was good today - very hot and a little windy. Forcasting showers tomorrow and I can feel the change coming through now. Fingers crossed its not too bad.

Looks like terrific weather for it and more than a few foolish grins to be had. Have a fantastic weekend guys. Hopefully I'll make the "virgin" list next year.

I noticed that several of the cars seem to be painted in a low luster paint or flat colors if you will. Is that a popular option these days in Australia? I like the chambray yellow and teal green looks especially well.

Well spotted Clois - its a new pain technique called "tinted primer" . Most these new guy's cars are incomplete - temp paint jobs just for the time being. Gav (green) and boxheads (yellow) cars in particular have come up great.

Very Nice pics. Love the Boxhead bonnet emblem
I agree, keep them coming.
I bet the virgins are grins from ear to ear.

Tell me about this "B-Club" 
Is it true they are the rejects from the Jenny Craig netball team?

Only one Daytona Ive seen so far - Stiffy.
Lots more GT40s this year though.
The B-club...well Les, I could tell you but then Id have to kill you. Lets say it could involve a secret handshake.....sacrificial alters.....full moons and virgins (although we cant find any of those in Goulburn). 
Few more pics:
Not sure when Churchy swapped over his b-Club plate for this pic (I am a dead man):
This thing is fast....I timed a few laps at 1:03 in practice:
rain rain go away.....
Peter G finally gets to drive a vehicle that at least looks a little like a real cobra:

Tomorrow will be a big day to see how everyone compares as there really hasnt been any official timed events yet. Weather is forcast to clear - so we shall see how it goes.

Now we know why Cobras have wipers and demisters!
Wish I was there - next year. Keep up the fabulous photos. They are very professional.
