Hi Greg, thanks for posting vid, hilarious, but you need to see Bathurst to know how true it is. Thinking next Lat G catchup at Bathurst, I'll buy the beers

VB or XXXX? Should only take a slab before the seppos turn to root rats and the joeys are running for cover. :lol:

You seem to know too much about my plan

How can this be?

A good friend used to live in Oz 6 months out of the year (drag racing season) for seven years and goes back for Christmas holiday every year. He also introduced me to a mate that lives in Shepparton who stayed at my place 10 years ago when traveling through and we stay in touch. I absolutely love your slang and attitude about life in general. :thumbsup:

Well got home on the weekend, still having trouble getting back to "normal" sleep pattern.

Had a ball while in USA. Great to meet a few guys from here.

I'll definitely be back to Austin for the V8s, great town, great people.

San Antonio was cool and New Orleans was down right awesome (glad I didn't act my age :))

Wrapped up trip, with visit to Detroit Speed, many thanks to Dan at DSE who spent a good couple of hours showing me around and got the chance to say hi to Kyle & Stacey.

I'm glad you made it home safe, enjoyed meeting you. Hope to see you soon!

^^ Roger, is this thing above faster than what you got back home? I might bet on it if it's been in SW's speed shop? :D

Cheers mate... hope we can share beers and laughs again sometime.

As soon as SW gets some 44" Forgelines for it, we are good to go, already right hand drive :)

Got a deposit on a new daily, auto in red. http://www.hsv.com.au/Gen-F/see/GTS/

You guys in US are getting the SS version, in Redline specification I believe, hence the lack of options.

http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/...iced-at-44470/

US version has 6.2 litre LS3, Aust version has 6.0

More details here, http://www.holden.com.au/cars/commod...e/ss-v-redline
