Default The Clipsal 500 is also here!!!

Time to stock up the fridge & prepare the man cave!!


A few photos of my model collection, mostly ford but have a soft spot for corvettes having owned one a few years back.







Done bar opens wednesday night after work & closes sunday night when the last one falls over or falls asleep, which ever comes first!

I will probably get a few photos up after the event of cars & girls.

It wasn't until after I posted I realised my mistake. Title was suppost to be "The Clipsal is Almost here". I guess a few too many beers didnt make it into the fridge.
I got a 4 Day Gold pass so I'll be at the track during the day & sinking beers by night. Have friends stay at my joint for the 4 days, have done this for many years. Great weekend, as you can tell I cant wait.

Nothing quite like being there and you live in Adelaide, but then again I watch the GP on the box and it's only down the road. Must say I am looking forward to going back to turn 8 for the weekend. Enjoy the beer....

Clipsal girls are too close to jail bait....

I usually hang around the VB tent which happens to be near the bikini parade platform....much more target rich environment.
