hahaha 98 beauty? christ i remember that...
hehe we got kicked out of the caravan park by the cops on sat morning after a HUGE party there on fri night. went lake jumping every other night till 2am.
the guys i was with (dirt pigs ) ended up having to sleep in the carpark at the track on sat night, meanwhile i managed to pick up some local chick, and scored a 'real' bed for the evening.
you remember this white mini bus tearing around, well, i was probably driving it... actually, thats right, the cops tried to defect me in it hehehe
also, did you go to the trials comp in the town square? i MC'd it.
cheers ed

Gday guys its good to see some DH riders into fast cars. Im into fast cars and bikes as well. I live in Canberra so we have heaps of good riding and not far to go to get to it. What cars have you guys got, do you take them to the national rounds. What are your names as im am sure I would know you guys as I am friends with heaps off the Sydney DHillers. I am heading over to LA in 8 weeks not to ride as all the NORBA races are over.most of the Ausies will still be there.so there will be some wild times had. Speak to you guys soon from Garreth Paton
