I was fortunate enough to be asked to join a small group for a 2 day runs Friday and Saturday.
Mainly Holden design team guys who were in mourning.
To quote Peter Hughes, the organiser (and Harry Atkinsons brother in law).
"2 days, 1200km, 6 cars, 6 blokes, 1 pub, ample beers, some scotch, appox. 4567 bends....can think of worse things to do.
Yea. Mansfield. Whitfield. Myrtleford, ( birthplace of G Ablett Snr). Happy Valley, Mitta Mitta. Anglers Rest. Omeo. Bairnsdale. Maffra. Mirboo North. Korumburra, Warragul and home"
We stayed at the iconic Blue Duck Inn overnight Friday night. 2017-10-21 08.42.00.jpg
An eclectic mix of cars and one missing from the pic was the horrid new ZB Commodore which one of the Holden team was testing. It drove and handled great but what horrid looking car, remember you heard it first here.
Apart from rental companies, no one will buy one but did hear good news about RHD Vettes, maybe HSV RHD Comaros etc to come on line in the future.
