Taking into account the next big meet for the forums is in geelong for the All Ford Day,I wonder if they'll have this one back on the road for it, if they're any good at advertising and being part of the enthusiast scene they will make every effort to have it there by then.

I yes I need 3 of them, one for each leg and one to carry santas bag!

I'm glad you added the 'Santa's bag' bit there. I was about to say this is a family forum!

Oh no...

I hope everyone is ok and not hurt.

that is really sad. I will miss this car, I hope it makes a full recovery.

its sad to hear, i personally had a little fun with this little beast... As some of you might know that this was at the Wagga All Ford Day on the 4Th Novemeber 2006, here are some happy snaps.




no, no roll over here, just me under the car pretending to be ran over... :

I hope to see it back on the road and in one piece. It really is a show stopper and with out a doubt, got people talking about it.

I hope to see it soon

I was actually ther eat the time with a couple of mates watching the guy belt this thing around 1 of the "Triple Circles" as its known at DECA, there was two guy in it to start with which it seems may have balanced out the weight a bit and allowed the car to stay on its wheels, but when that guy got out u could see that the thing was right side heavy, the lap before it happened we were saying it looked like it was gona go over, and he came over a little crest got it well sideways and the thing went over on top of him......... i thought he would be dead when they flipped the car over but then he started moving had a huge gash out of his head which i am sposing when he face planted the road and it looked like he had a broken arm which looked like it was on the outside of the car when it went over i think when it went over he somehow fell into the well of the car and survied but very very lucky to be alive.

I am not insured with Shannons Insurance but my recent dealings with them have me much impressed. Good luck to them!!
