Dave
It sounds like it was another great Australia day at Penrith for you blokes.
Congratulations to all that went. Running at night would certainly be different, particularly with glowing pipes.

I saw Neil going around taking pics. What I really want is some footage of the parade.

Well done Dave and all who attended,
sounds like a great display, I'm sure the wooden boat cause will benefit from your efforts.
Wish I was there.
Alan.

It sure was BLOODY HOT!!! You're such a good organiser Dave but next time how about the weather as well. I had a few good runs early in the day, The Jet at 6000 rpm felt like it was flying. Of course when it came time for the demo run at night it let me down again. It was still a good day and thanks again Dave. Here are a few photos, no action shots unfortunately.

I too would love to see footage of the parade.
That was a blast charging around in front of a packed stadium in the dark with spotlights trained on us :mrgreen:

Cheers!

The organisers rang me at 7 am this morning to say that we were a hit.
I knew that already by the way the crowd responded.
Again thanks everyone for making the effort.
