Adventures on the New England Highway: Future interstate meet
This is looking & sounding like a fun weekend. Michelle & I are looking forward to it. Our only concern is it may clash with a race meeting date as we are going back to full time drag racing next season & the calendar hasn't been released yet. That aside we are keen as mustard.
Not drag racing in the Jaguar? ha ha ha

Regrettably, as well as Neil [Kove] being unavailable, Steve [yarpos] was always dependent on linking dates to his hols at PMQ. We are still 8 at this stage (that's 10 cars) with plenty of "can rattling" to go. So . . . don't be bashful . . . dive in . . . promises to be a great get-away in Tenterfield.
Cheers,

Ken

This looks like a great weekend away. Thinking of travelling in the support vehicle
( Toyota Kluger) with a few basic tools on board. Hope this is ok with you fellow die hard Jag boys. I think Lilly Jagsit may be keen to come along as well.

Hey Dr Phill,
The genius . . . the legend behind Clarke's lunchtime . . . finally, a chance to meet up. Please do come join us! And bring both Lilly and that transporter support motel along . . . any of us who tire of pushing Jaguars, can lay down and restore our strength as you motor us along.
Aaaah . . . I have been authorized to ask if your support vehicle has a tow hitch capable of pulling a 2ton Jaguar with both mufflers dragging?
Seriously, it will be great fun, I'm certain!
Cheers,

Ken

Ah, no not in the Jag. I'll be racing my newly built drag bike & REALLY looking forward to going back to full time racing after a 4 year layoff.
Thanks for the update Kove. Sorry you can't make it.

Sorry folks . . . been away; been back; been buildin' and much is nearing completion. Both my '79 Jags have arrived and are tucked away - the red SIII XJ6 is a cracker, absolutely beautiful - as a contrast, the BRG XJ-S is the greatest "bucket of bolts" ever seen. It's been christened my "Barney Rubble Project Car" . . . look Mum; no floors!
Paul; I'm tinkin' I should start a ring around of Tenterfield accommodation, rates, contact numbers etc and post results. Of course, any of us is free to do so independently, but I suspect a "club negotiated multiple room rate" might be attractve - especially if coupled to in house restaurant booking as well. I won't get much time till Thursday . . . expect their rates Friday . . . so I expect to post back on weekend. OK?
Cheers,

Ken

Yep Paul . . . will do. Having a bit of a health scare at present otherwise I intended to have done so by now and reported back. Birth of new grandchild expected in Sydney in New Year, so I will be away from 5th to 9th Jan, but will jump on this and post results.
Congrats on your new harness . . . sounds very S & M doesn't it . . . unless you own a V12 Jag! But then . . . such ownership must be the ULTIMATE S & M (apologies to Grant Francis).
Merry Christmas to all and best wishes for a safe, healthy and prosperous New Year.
Cheers,

Ken
