    yeah, sit them on your desk at work and you'll always have something to brighten up the day. ;) I think I might buy a 1:18 version of all the other cars that attended.....that would be really cool! :)

    Dear Mark

    I got the 5 DVD's today after arriving home fom visiting the QLD border and Tennant Creek this week. I have only watched the first DVD but it is really great to have the momento. Cheryl also received the thankyou note and much appreciated. You are always welcome to revisit.

    Regards

    Neville and Cheryl

    i think they'd be pretty well on par. really, unless you're Jim Richards you probably won't be able to use either to the extent that there's a clear winner.

    the Gallardo feels swifter from 100-250, and has better high-speed stability and a real sure-footedness about it. the CS seems to take off faster and is a bit more agile, but as the dial goes higher those bumps and anti-camber corners make you clench so tight you'll be on Metamucil for a week afterwards.

    Muhaahaahaa, (I still can't get that laugh out of my head)

    Just thought I would let you guys know. I caught up with Les last night for some food and a few (maybe more, then) drinks. So he is alive and well just flat out so he hasn't been online much but will be soon.

    They are waiting for him over on his NSX forum. I had to post a couple of pics to keep them amused while they wait for Les to report on his adventures.

    I've got the ones of Gekko and Peter sleeping. Should we include all those on the DVD? hehehe

    YES!!! That was funny stuff - as soon as Neville put the Lambo movie on Gekko was gone! :)

    Also, who was it that took the pic of Les at Ayers Rock when he was creating a shadow for Guy (MOTOR photographer)?

    Good work - changed mine to a speedo shot of the CS while I was driving. ;) Unfortunately its only around 150kmh - and fairly low quality since I captured it from the video you took of me. ;)

    My profile pic has also been changed to the lineup at the Rock, missing the Murcielago though so it might have to change to another one. :)

    I am looking at the DVD's that Mark sent me and they are tremendous. Really enjoying the footage. Why didn't we place the video on the road edge of a fast corner and then run the outside wheel within inches at 250km/hr plus just like the race cam footage!!!

    We seem to have all the other angles!!

    You camera and film guys did a great job. I reckon if we can't make a DV that sells something is wrong!!

    my camera took enough of a risk sitting on the back of the Spider - having you guys fly past it at 250kmh inches away would have given me a heart attack. :D

    Seriously though, since I've been home I've thought of many different things we could have got footage of - but didn't think of at the time. :( We always have next year..... ;)

    happy to take a day trip to get 'supplementary footage', Murci only but hey. :D

    as i told Jan and Mark, i can recover most of the Dingocam shaky stuff too. time-consuming but there's a fair bit of footage that you otherwise can't watch easily.

    Ok I might be dreaming but if I win lotto and Bugatti ever sell this thing right hand forget the Ferrari lambo thing I just want to see Scuds face as I pass the Porsche at 400km/hr!!!

    Anyway nfortunately did in the ankle with a very bad sprain duringhte week so really regret no paddle shifting fun to maintain the 300km/hr weekend.

    I have the leg up watching your DVD's

    Neville

    PS Feel free to post your weapon for next year :)
