It's bad enough I will only get half a shirt as it is, but don't make us wait 'til March 7 to find out about the new parts!

I would love to join this year's SITT, just far too much in the hopper for one calendar year already. I will be along for the next one! Fully agree about doing a yearly roadtrip. Lots of great memories as a kid trundling down endless backroads to see what's at the other end ...

Doug. Once you complete the 2 day Targa NZ NI (16th-18th May) I think you will be hooked. Here is an opportunity to drive as quickly as you can on some choice NZ roads using the entire width of the tarmac with driveways taped off and medical services on standby. Better still you get to do this with a group of like minded enthusiasts who also enjoy a "spirited" drive in a vast range if interesting (and often exotic) machinery. This type of event will not exist in the worlds PC future for very much longer I suspect so enjoy it whilst you can...

Stick to cars - it's a far cheaper hobby........(trust me)

The cost of building at the moment is insane.......

Might have to change installers as RSG seem to be through CCS every 5 minutes, otherwise the cat will be out of the bag.

We're resurrecting plans from 1992 so at least we can get an estimate without committing too soon. I involves lifting the roof and putting a new room and bathroom upstairs.

I think several of RSG office at reception outside Dean's office!! The first time I walked through the doors I clearly heard two guys whispering about the SITT - I knew I was in the right place.

Flick me your plans - I will get some friendly builders to price it for you.

John you didn't finally cave into your craving for those fluffy dice and tweety bird safety belt paddings did you LOL! I hope it was something more interesting like some KWV3s!

Sell the 964T John and use the funds to fuel the next 3-4 years of car adventures. Life short and getting out the christofle isnt guaranteed.
