David,
Welcome and hope you'll enjoy your stay.

One important thing to note:
The gang of three, who introduced you into this forum is very danger :lol:

Be careful, your wallet maybe soon emptied when you chimp in their bags with all the toys they have, or you'll get the NLD from them. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

And all related and interbred too. :)


Welcome, David. Enjoy what we have on offer, but as Birddog says, this is dangerous territory. :)

Thanks for all the kind and welcoming comments, as for the emptying of wallets I think I managed to help Tony lighten his and I am doing a pretty good job of clearing my own.

BBJ I will be spending mosy of my time at turn 7 also, got some good shots from there this arvo.

I will have to wait till i am back in Hobart next week before I post any guys as I am only on dial up here (got plenty of the cars, quite a few of the pit lane and of course a heap of the promo girls).

Cheers
