It was Poncho's first swim in the water, she went underwater and crapped herself. But it wasnt long before she started to puppy paddle around and she really enjoyed it. Nicole said she didnt want to get out, so she had to chase her in the water to get her out of there to go home.

It was REALLY good to get the car out alright.

GG is getting big alright!! He can take my Ferrari out to pick girls up.............as long as he doesnt mind driving the Ferrari with two black eyes!



Yep, first thing that morning before I took my mate for a drive.

After that, I took it to my Brothers place and took GG for a lap around the block.

Parked it there all day until late afternoon when I took another friend for a drive.



Thanks mate!



Huh?

It allows me EASY access to get the car back out again to take another friend for a drive, which I did this afternoon.

He is visiting from Brisbane and has driven my Ferrari before. A nice chap and we had a great time.

Well, besides the un-marked Cop car that followed us and an XR6 turbo ute down the main street. Seconds earlier we 'launched' from the traffic lights, but we only went to the speed limit, 60 km/h. But the Cop followed us for a LONG time. Didnt pull us up though, just eye-balled us and kept going.

Anywho, when I did park the car up in the morning, I took GG for a drive in the Ferrari. It has been a very long time since I posted pics of him and the Ferrari. I think today was also his first drive. We went around the block, but he wanted *more* of course!!!

We went for a casual drive around town. After 10-15 mins, I drove out of town a little and pulled up to let Richard have a drive. He didnt take long to get used to driving the car. He LOVED the Ferrari shift gate, was "very cool" he said. Also said the car felt rock solid at speed (140 km/h) and was overall impressed with the driving experience.

Another HAPPY customer!

Driving down the main drag home @ 60 km/h in traffic was SOOOOOOOOO boring!

I told her driving a new 430 would be exactly the same. Awesome cars, but good for nothing on the street when you stick to the speed limit!

Interesting app!!

I dont know whats started from here, but there is the Variety Club Rally. That raises money for kids I think. But I think that starts in Townsville, comes through Mount Isa and finishes in Darwin. Something like that anyways.

Either way, I hope she is having a good time and she enjoyed her Isa visit.

Looks cool, but NOT me for me!





My rather large frame gives it away!



Yeah, my Mum used to dress my brother and I in those Australia shirts ALL the time back then. It must have been because I was a fat little immigrant and I needed my Mum thought I needed to show my love for this Country?

I was in the Townsville over the last 2 days. Drove home this morning. Drove 930km in 8 hrs.

Here are what the roads are like between Mount Isa-Hughenden on the way to Townsville. The Townsville side of Hughenden and Charters Towers the roads are immaculate, of course.

All those pics were randomly taken while driving home today. There was PLENTY more damage on those roads, but I only took a few pics to show you guys why I do not and will not drive my Ferrari anywhere but in Mount Isa!

Plenty of pot holes along the way. Parts of the road missing, some parts the complete lane is missing and you drive on dirt for many km's. Roads are all ****ed and they are trying to repair them, but its slow and never seems to get done properly. My Magna copped beating today.

I am thinking I should truck it over to Townsville again one day soon. The roads there are very good and last time I had the Ferrari there I had a wonderful time.

So Simon, im sorry but I refuse to drive the Ferarri to Pentland to have a piss up with you!

If you have a REAL good look, you can see a tipper trailer that has tipped over on its side.

I'd say the dirt lane contributed to the truckie losing control causing this tip over. No one was injured I was told by the Policeman who was explaining the situation to motorists as we stopped and waited to drive past the scene.

Cops were there barricading off the area and I guess they will get a crane in to lift the trailer back on its wheels. GREAT roads we have in the outback eh?

All those pics were randomly taken while driving home today. There was PLENTY more damage on those roads, but I only took a few pics to show you guys why I do not and will not drive my Ferrari anywhere but in Mount Isa!

Plenty of pot holes along the way. Parts of the road missing, some parts the complete lane is missing and you drive on dirt for many km's. Roads are all ****ed and they are trying to repair them, but its slow and never seems to get done properly. My Magna copped beating today. :
I am thinking I should truck it over to Townsville again one day soon. The roads there are very good and last time I had the Ferrari there I had a wonderful time.

So Simon, im sorry but I refuse to drive the Ferarri to Pentland to have a piss up with you!
****e Pap did,nt realise the roads were in such an immacculate state.Surprising given the pollies spin on the road toll.The fact that it,s the main HIGHWAY west from all points north and south from Rocky obviously means the Qld govt is broke/ignorant/whatever.This is grey nomad time in the north.............we,ve already had a double fatal on the Lynd road this year.
We,ll have to do Pentland in our 4WDs....eh.
Just as well all the fatals/injured are accounted by speeding/drunk and falling asleep.
We may have to do Pentland with full house 4WDs????

The roads are shocking mate!

If you remember me posting this many times here, I almost did NOT buy a Ferrari while I live out here because of the poor road conditions.

But I thought I better buy a Ferarri, cause I would have probably never gotten around to getting one down the track.

The roads in town are sh*thouse and the ones leaving town have turned to sh*t over the last few years. Well, they are MUCH worse and have not seen any maintenance from what I can see. Thats why its all ****ed now at once.

I always find it funny that the roads are immaculate on the Coast. Townsville/Cairns/Brissy/Gold Coast etc..etc..

The Isa-Townsville stretch is VERY important as its the only way to get over there and its vital for road frieght etc...etc..

Of course the local roads are crap cause its supply and demand. There are 1.5 mill people in Brissy, so they HAVE to throw money at those roads to maintain them. Mount Isa has 22,000 people at best so the roads are of lower priority here.

The Gov needs to throw a hundred mill out this way to fix all the roads properly. That way, they will be right for another 50 yrs.

I can do a Pentland piss-up in other car but my Ferrari mate! Whenever you're keen, let me know.
