Man, I now know how Big John feels. This is the first time I have ever won anything for a car. I am stoked mate, absolutely stunned. I thank all who have been involved in my build, particularly Craig Christerson. And for all the support of the ORSM membership, thank you.

Thanks mate, and your welcome on the banners. I would be pleased to help again.

And to everyone else, thank you for your kind comments and support. The heat was horrendous, and had me feeling a little faint at times. Wonderful what cold wet cleaning cloths do around your neck.. LOL Some mighty fine rides on display, and a few excellent displays. Well done Adelaide for raising the bar. Will make it tougher, and that's a healthy outcome.

I didn't take my camera, and forgot my phone charger. But there were a few shots taken by Big John and the others. Times like these we really miss Tony W the ORSM snapper, anyway here is shot of the convoy mid morning at Horsham. Stopover to feed the hungry on the way home.



And few of the first trophy ORSMT has picked up. Snapped these after I got home, in lue of the piccies follow.

Congrats guys, make the trip worth it. I'm filthy I couldn't make it and celebrate your wins.

ORSMXRT also won an award. Biggest distance travelled. But I couldn't claim it cause I wasn't there.

congrats guys for putting up with the heat and making the effort, well done.

Was a top day and some very nice vehicles on display, well done guys on your wins, well deserved. Hopefully less dramas next year and a bit cooler.

what is it about car shows that make people aim for your car?? we had a couple pull out due to getting hit ourselves. and 1 just got back from the paintshop on wednesday after getting hit by a bus!!!

well done guys.

Thanks Jack. Yes mate, it's Adrian's beast. Very nice too. Nathan and Troy were working like soldiers on all 4 cars, each taking care of what we hadn't got time for. A true team effort on this event, and a credit to all.
