That sucks! I feel really bad for you guys.

It's official. Speed Week at Lake Gairdner has been cancelled yet again. Decision was made yesterday arvo as salt was still slushy in places. Very disappointing to say the least.

I spoke briefly with Burly today. He was on the way to Don Kendall's place (Victoria). He wanted to give a special shout out to Don for his great hospitality.

I'm sure all the boys are disappointed. What a heartbreaker. Say Hi to Burly and Todd for me. Tell Todd the shop is still standing and the Vanagon is almost done
