Just like in the movies! We went to Bonnie Doon (well Peppin Point actually but near enough!) for a weekend away. Oh, and there was a rally on as well and the TYF was competing.
So Andrew O came along for guidance around the course, it was a daylight event, all special stages and route charted (no maps, yippee) and Grasshopper even came along for logistical and service support. All set, what could go wrong?
Well, nothing, for nearly 3 stages. And if you ask the driver, there was nothing wrong at all!
But the service crew knew better, once they’d looked under the car! That’s an interesting sight! Where the bloody hell is the rest of that Koni shock absorber. Faark!, broken mount and half the shock missing! Oh well, you’re out boys.
It was a nice day out and the rest of the weekend was pleasant, shame about the rally.
Our accommodation was great, awesome views across what should have been water, but Lake Eildon hasn’t had much water in it for quite a while. However, the view was still pretty cool, and with the early morning fog covering the valley it was quite spectacular.
To sum up it wasn’t the most successful event, but, the car was easy to fix, no was hurt and we had a nice weekend away.
Ciao
