The Forum has gone very quiet all of a sudden. Can we blame this on "Climate Change " or what?

Hi All

She ran great I am happy to say
Another 100km and no 'bang' yet
Hurrah

Nice you're back on line mate. I've missed you're comments while you were away. Things do go a bit quiet on here now and then, perhaps facebook is to blame. Plenty of people go there first, trouble is there is so much stuff there they get caught up. Instagram and Bellett.net are enough for me!

Happy posting!
Cheers, Matt.

I have just renewed the Club Permits on the Teardrop and GT for another 12 months. Nearly missed on the Teardrop as it came due whilst we were away - got it in with 1 hour and 20mins. to spare, they allow 3 months .............! ! ! !

PS - We were able to, unexpectedly, attend the Nats. at Toowoomba which we really enjoyed (once again our cars were at home " accumulating more low mileage" ) Thanks to Greg Liz. and all the crew who organised the weekend - very well done and I am sure a good time was had by all.

Hi Guys and Girls
I made the trek over The Ditch to the MotoGP over the weekend at Phillip Island
oh my god..... They are all amazing
The Ducati reach 347kmh down the straight
They sound like Star Wars land speeders.....
The location and track is amazing and I was wondering how Asroc would go around ........
If you haven't seen the bikes live then do yourselves a favour
Cheers
J

Glad you enjoyed them J, its the first year in a long time Gary and Dennis haven't been there.
I have never been a bike type, but I can see the appeal.

Cheers, Matt.

I reckon I might have to put it on my bucket list....I watched on TV while working in the garage with my 2 nephews on their Yamaha WR450F that has been sitting for 9 years.

Second home.
Folks have a house there. Gary and Dennis know it well. Well..... The old one is gone and the new one is very close to finished.
Shed has a big Bellett presence.
Belletts go well round there, provided they're set up right. Feel free to come over for lessons anytime...... ;)

Wouldn't it be great to have a Bellett race meeting weekend
Nothing wrong with dreaming
It only costs >$1200 each way in the ferry with a car trailer.....GULP
Not to mention would need a 5 speed gearbox
Oh and plenty of boxes to gather the bits when Asroc explodes.....
Dreams good though.....
:lol:

Who remembers a race around a Nagambie dirt racetrack with the local officer taking radar readings :-)

No dream. Has been done before.
There's pics around somewhere of Craig, Gav and me at Sandown.
I know there's definitely video on YouTube too......

Everything does seem a little quiet?

Is everyone waiting for show season... that has to be now doesn't it?

Time to get the sedan out and start cruising again :)
