    Wise words Chuck, as usual.

    I totally agree with you in that many skills can be honed during your everyday driving such that they become second nature.

    I am amazed at the numbers of P-car owners I have ridden with who cannot hell'n'toe and match engine revs on both up and down shifts. On these older transmissions without the benefit of modern synchro design, this makes a big difference in smoothness and also on the longevity of the engine , tranny and clutch.

    Being mechanically minded from an early age (dad owned an engineering business), I was always sympathetic towards mechanical devices and found they worked far better when treated well. Our P-cars respond well to this treatment, especially in the gear change area.

    Hope you enjoy your Holiday breakfast at the "Mouse". Maybe post us a pic or 2 ?

    I am sure some of the members who, who don't know what you do to support your P-car habit, might be interested .

              Sydney 901rs

              I am away on leave until the 20th Jan...pls nominate your preferred sunday morning after that date for the first 06 run.

              We have suggested Bells Line Of Rd and back on Gt Western Hwy...if time permits maybe we target Bathurst and a lap around the mountain.

              Let me know if any alternatives come to mind for the route
