Shaz Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Oh that was our first date!Can't make it this year though Which seriously sucks balls cos dad will be running our mustang Oh how could I forget about our first date? There was a creepy bearded man there too. Haha I was so hungover/dehydrated on Sunday morning that I drank the Commodore's emergency water that I keep in the boot. Delicious. I felt so guilty and paranoid about it afterwards because I was sure I'd need that water on the way home and it wouldn't be there. That sucks baaaaalllls though that you can't make it. I will be sure to let you know how good it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullitt Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Will likely be there. Not too worried about F5000 tbh. They make an incredible noise but have seen them many times and you generally get closer racing in the lesser categories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
