    Thanks for starting this thread Bails. And thanks to all those involved with the club for putting on a must do run. For all those seen and not seen who make it happen I really am grateful we have this stellar run in Melbourne to attend. And the weekend gone just once again cemented that.

    For me, it was honestly one of the best. Probably helped that there hasn't been anything on for such a long time. Getting my roadster back as it should be with the engine in it that had a near death experience at this event 3 years ago and really just catching up with people I haven't seen for ages.

    this is a true class act event.
