    Just wanted to give everyone a 'heads-up' that Dingo will have some good spots and pics for you from today's Barbagllo track day. It will be a better spot than the 250GTO I saw in Osborne Park a couple of weeks ago! It must have been a GTO - it said so on the number plate...

    At southport. Was a clients place so I better not name names but the plate on the GT is TMH, doesn't get out a lot apparently as it is too much of a PITA around town.

    Haha, yes I've seen that GTO too at Speedworks in Osborne Park.

    Today was a great day, got even better after you left (no offence :p ) - more on that later when all the pics/videos are done.

    Here is something spotted on the freeway heading for the track - taken from a 328......little did I know what would happen about 7hrs later. :)

    For PP's reference I unofficially timed the car for 3 laps - with passenger and on road tyres at two 67s and a 66 second laps with Alf Barbagllo driving - dry track, cool temps and lots of track experience. Very good time on road tyres and with a passenger!

    So do you know the GT?

    The 911 plate's are 'NICE'.

    I'm completely lost here. Are those times referring to the 430 Challenge? Was the 430 Challenge the star attraction or was there something else that overshadowed it?

    We'll talk slowly for the RENSC followers :) (just kidding) The times were for the 430 Challenge. Don't know what else Dingo got up to - he is preparing a visual feast for us I assume...

    he is referring to the 430CH, sorry if I got your hopes up but there was nothing which overshadowed it.

    I thought the GT2 sounded pretty ho-hum actually. If that's his new exhaust system I'd be taking it back and trying again. Car sounded really strangled. The 430CH sounded much more impressive. Aside from the Murcies, Gallardos and hairdresser 430s & 360s there wasn't much else there :D

    Spotted a Silver/Titanium Gallardo last night on Burke Road near Camberwell Junction.

    I actually think it might be the first time I have seen one on the road (usually just staring at one at a car show or through the dealer window late at night :D )

    When it is next to a Murcielago it looks kind of small, but damn, it's a low and wide car.

    Sexy as hell, makes me more jealous of MHH ;)
