Just another Sunday morning

Today was our stage practice day for the Classic Adelaide so it was up early for a trip to Adelaide to get that organised. We were due to run our stage at 10.00 am but there were hardly any of our people there. Even by 10.30 things hadn't improved much so we got on with it. It was good really, as some people were able to learn new tasks as they replaced others that hadn't turned up and we even found out how to get the Tag Heuer equipment working again when it spits the dummy. Steve Kostoff came in the red Nagari below. I am wondering now, whether Bolwell builders always walk around with tape measures in their pockets for such occasions. After that it was off to new member, Len Bs to inspect his Eureka for historic registration. There hasn't been a Purvis Eureka in the club for ages. Now there is and I look forward to Len and his sky blue coupe joining us on runs in the future.

There aren't any Bolwells to watch out for in this year's Classic but for the first time there is a Purvis Eureka in the competition section. I remember years ago Norm Hamilton doing the sums on building one up for ProdSports based on what hot bits and suspension bits were available in America. It didn't eventuate, but on paper, it shaped up to be a Porsche beater. I'll also be keeping an eye out for the Callinans' big black Pantera. That's always great to watch and Peter and Sari Ullrich are back again in the CV8.
