Dammm I will be in Port Hedland :( However this was my choice so I could attend the track day on 17th Sep at Willowbank :) Hopefully I will get a few seconds faster.

Whoa. The trip is still three months away. I'll most probably attend.

Drove some this route in the reverse direction today in the Bimma - had to seeing we had number one grand daughter with us today. It was great but will be so much better going the other way in spring in the MX-5 with the roof down....and listening to driving music rather than Hi 5 CDs. :wink:

The weather forecast for next Sunday is looking great with blue skies and temps in the mid 20s - perfect weather for some top down driving on back roads. Old, new and prospective club members are all welcome. Details/information: http://www.mx5clubqld.com.au/?page_id=43

We can meet GC folks at Wyaralong Dam - about 15km west of Beaudesert on the Beaudesert - Boonah Rd. However, it will take you about the same time to get there as it would to go to the Ipswich start point. You could leave home later if you went direct to Wyaralong, but then you'd miss out on some Scenic Rim roads. :wink:

I was pushing myself hard to make it to Browns Plains the other week, I think Ipswich would break me :lol:

I was thinking of tagging on somewhere around Bonah asuming the run goes that way. But maybe some other GC members would like to join me for a run to meet at the dam.

Any idea what time your meant to arrive at the dam???

Not going through Boonah to the dam Rob. We'll get to the dam at between 1015 and 1030 - you should be able to make that no worries.
