No surprise there. But here's one... its raining in benders, i mean who would have thought that liquid would ever fall from the sky? Crazy. A weekend out, i'm up for it and i've even got the rebuilt engine to do it.

Keep us posted, my only problem with a weekend out is the fun stuff.

Cheers

We have beaches, but not allowed on them.

We have sand, but thats in the far west/northwest in the little desert national park

We have rock climbs, but you need a rope for that, the subi would be left in the carpark a k back...

But i agree, it doesn't have to be slippery or wet to have some fun.

Timmo, you want to see a little track i have fun on? Might have to check it out cos its been about 3 months since i was last there...

Let me know and i'll post you my mobile or vise-versa

Cheers

I'm staying away from sand... yes thats right not allowed on the beach unless you're unloading the boat to water.

Wet/slippery is more challengey!!!

Timmo, I've checked out the tracks i know, looks like fun if your up for it. Refer to PM.

Its raining again, and we had a storm this morning, most bizarre thing i've ever seen. The sun was coming up making the cloud look orange then there were bolts of blue lightening. once the sun was coverd by a cloud this orange one fast went black. Speckie though.

And we're now getting some mud up here from pipe contruction works along some of the tracks, should be some fun on the weekend cos i don't think it'll dry out anytime soon. There's also some good water puddles (they freak me out since i was a kid in the NT) to drive through/play in if thats your thing.

Anyone else wanna come up to have some fun? Give me a buzz on 0421 184 031. Sunday would probabily be better as i'll have more time.

Timmo, looking forward to meeting, hope to hear from you soon.

Cheers

my subee is sittting out the front of the house hasnt been driven for almost 2months... registeresd not insured trying to figure out wha ti do with it... sell it and put a v8 in my pannelvan or leave it how it is and keep rewelding mounts back in the body from the lift kit and extra power pulling them out,

or third return it to stock height road rubber and give it some more berries which would still be nice

your panelvan is a ford yeah? Then there's no arguement: re-weld, re-weld and keep that subi going, much better than a ford ;P

"give it some more berries"? I take it this means playing with the performance for more of the good stuff?

My 3cents.
