Yeah cars drive better when they are clean too

I'm going to get some cleaning stuff tomorrow night (late night shopping) and should be quite a bit cleaner for the Worthington drive on Saturday.

This guy is pretty confident that the Golf is the best car on the road (more or less told us this), so I will ask him if he would mind us jacking it up and performing the "Robbo Chassis Stiffness Test". I think he might just go for it, so i will be sure to let you know the results if it happens.

Hi,

I'm absolutely certain that the golf will pass the test with flying colours

It is a well engineered car, and I would be very surprised if it didn't pass the test

If you were in the market in the cheap as chips drive away segment, then there would potentially be a more serious issue

Cheers

Robbo

Bec & I will be there Zapo...and I ran into 21Blue today and he said he will definately be representing Team-PW-Cooper tomorrow. Sounds like we will have a great turn-out.

I'm just hoping this could be (what seems like) our inaugural dry trip North

I hope you were touching wood when you typed that

They seem like some memorable last words.

ie We'll be there is no time, Should only take 5 minutes

Don't worry mate. I was touching wood, rubbing a budhas tummy and I happened to find a 3-leaf clover just as I was about to make the last post - so we should be OK (touch wood)

mini_kitten · Mar 10th, 2006, 10:47 AM

I hope you meant a FOUR leaf clover...

SupeRub · Mar 10th, 2006, 10:53 AM

I hear 4 leaf clovers are much luckier that the 3 leaf variety

Eleni, Yeah I will be taking them They take AAA bateries. But you wont need to bring any they all have batteries.

Make sure you fill up too as there are not many petrol stations on the way.

mini_kitten · Mar 10th, 2006, 10:58 AM

ok ruben no worries, i bags one of your cb's too btw

im all filled up too, and zesti is freshly washed

...Must have been a Subliminal Slip of the fingers - I hope I'm not to blame for us all getting 3/4 of the way there today before the heavens opened up

mini_kitten · Mar 11th, 2006, 11:13 AM
