After several weeks of preparation, all systems are go. Have to drive it over to the mechanics this morning to put on the transporter for the 1,415 km trip from Sydney to Adelaide. I will be flying over with my navigator next Monday afternoon. http://www.classicadelaide.com.au/ca/ You can follow our progress each night.. Car 426.

Becko (the navigator) and I are flying over. Its too damn far to drive. The teener has gone on a truck. We are hoping that we might come close to matching it with our friends in the taildragger http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread....threadid=187536 they have a bit more power than us about 270 at the clutch and we have about 240. It will be interesting to see how it performs with the short gears in it - A, GA, M, S, Y. Don't know if its worth 30 hp but we'll see. We are also giving away about 40 years to them between us and a significant amount of testicle size. The nice thing about Adelaide is that the weather is generally pretty good, hot and dry, unlike Targa where it always rains for a couple of days.
