I think that is for the 28th or something like that, this is more for the oval guys IIRC.

We will need one "show drifter" to do the 15 minute segment on the 12th. Who will it be?

Bruno would probably be the best candidate, anyone heard from him, is he back in the land of the living yet? If not Bruno the definately George, that dude is smoking at the moment!

Get hold of him.That is Bruno.

Lazy-ass.

Well the once-off gazebo has had it's once-off moment but I can bring a braai, table and a chair or two. I suggest a bring-and-braai so everyone can choose their own meat. I can organise good boerewors on request, and I'll have little bit extra just in case.

Doesn't any1 have a big umbrella like device? (hint, not an sx mod) Try to bring your hat/sunscreen/aloe-vera cream with, it being hot or raining acid n all.

Freddie you are actually the best co-ordinator because many people already have your number AND your sx is running AND you're more reliable than any corolla

So send out a mail please Mr president when you think the details are sorta ironed out (but preferably around lunch time Wedsday if possible to give the guys the most time to ponder).

As far as I have it we want to be finished braaing by 16:00, I don't know what Show Cars is but it sounds cool. So I suggest this timing:

11:00 get to convoy point [we can meet at the Shell again in Midrand?]
12:00 arrive at the rock
13-14:00 start braaing
16:00 Show cars start

We'll also have to get someone (maybe someone that lives closish, like Jon or Duane *cough*

) to pitch up early enough to get 1 of the better spots. I'm not going to quote numbers but it's going to be busy.

As for the drifting I nominate Bruno if he's around but George is the best alternative. I think it's basically unanimous, except that George hasn't posted on the thread
