Yes, still bagged up in my office. Back from 8th April onwards. Currently at home until Saturday morning.

PM me your address and I'll courier them to you if you like

White cars stick together

Jason. If your car isn't fixed by the 'arrive and drive' you can still drive BB. You've yet to bust your cherry there!

Suspected broken top mount in rear suspension. Looks easy to fix and should be under some sort of warranty.

thanks re other..why you not driving/
I've got plenty of track time coming up and high demand means leaving a spot for someone else. May come out late in the day.

A surprising lack of older cars at CCS today so I spent my time in the showroom. I'm starting to appreciate newer machinery more, but not the price tags. I can't see a $170,000 Cayman ripping it up at the track and showing me what the extra 10hp can do.

Right now I'm waiting on bated breath to see what level of camber I can get out of the OE parts.

Talking about coincidences.... I had to have my infection drained in Queenstown the morning we were to drive to Timaru on the SITT. Wasn't able to drive really so Dave Allison kindly drove me in my car to Timaru, in convoy with Robert, Luke and Les. We drove into the motel that Les had booked for them and it turns out to be the same motel that I'd booked into... My booking made at least four months previously. And we had been allocated rooms next to each other. Timaru has a very large number of motels.

Chris, alignment done. More camber up front and a few measurements brought back into tolerance, mainly right front toe. However, they weren't that far off to call anything a game changer. $138 bill, including the free wash is good value, if for no other reason than I now know it's all correct. Another bonus was seeing a White Spyder up close.

Donation made, Macca. Here's to hitting the stretch goal.

Doug - say the word if another container comes available. Plenty of clothes and items to drop off.
