Will forgot to ask how it performed for you! I also bought one but experienced too much static/noise to find it useful. Maybe I didn't know how to drive it properly. Intertested in your thoughts as I'm likely to take mine back.

Yep me too but I stupidly threw the instructions away with the packaging and need to check if I was using it right (novices...). Try again next time I reckon

The honda guys were looking daggers at me as I drove through them on the way out!

I drove home via the Dandenongs to Ferntree Gully and the birthday party - the twisty bits around Olinda would have been fun but for the rain, Sunday drivers and speed limit. Saw a little Datsun that had spun off the road & hit a tree - cops in attendance...

Whose birthday shall we celebrate next time?

As long as it is the best - who care if it is the same run.

I promise to scare the lot if it was warmer and sunny.

I was going to get them through another road to Lake Mountain which include a 5km of rally road

I myself arrived home just in time to watch the World Rally Championship, so that is exactly what I sat down and watched!

Look:- It got wet!

Did you dry it off before or after the WRC?

A quick wash before and a little bit of a polish after. Nothing is too good for the little fella
