Brisbane FE Thunder Downunder

[andym]

Paddy I can and will use force to get that crappy mono of yours out of the way for team Delta!! Seriously can some one email me with the location and opptions on where to stay ( read cheap for me and two kids) so as I might be able to attend the winter spectacular. Rules and regs to. Will share them with Paddy and try my hardest to get there as it seems there is fun to be had.

Mate wasn't that flag originaly from Victoria? If so you are doing youself a diservice, we all know your the original Tassie devil but now it gets worse. As they say the only good flood is in Vic as to wash the crap out to sea. I do not think that 35mph boat of yours could pull the skin off Grannies custard tart. Now thems fighting words!!!! No doubt I will hear from you soon. How were the chips mate, burnt?

Looks like it was a great weekend guys, congratulations Scott and Heath on your placings.
While you are still fizzing have a think about Thunder Down Under being organised by the NZMPBA for Hakanoa later in the year.
The MMPBC is working with NZMPBA to have some FE classes included.

Andy,
We normally stay in a cabin at the Nepean River Caravan Park (or something like that). Rates are OK, and most of the travelling racers stay there. Regulations will be on the AMPBA website, but with the new addition of 4S lipo to the EA classes.

Paddy,
Nice shot of the NS3 - still very pretty!

Graham,
I'd love to come over again this year, but I think that the wedding planning will take up a lot of my time and $$$....

Jim,
Congrats on your placings as well - your boats ran great all weekend, and your driving was tops. Your diving for your boat was good too!

Apples,
As Heath said, there's currently riggers available from Paul Osmond (Taipan), Rod Smith (Ice), and a new one coming out by Aaron Alberico. Prices are probably all similar. The 4S rigger class will be popular I think, the electronica are a bit cheaper than the 6S boats, and they've got a tonne of speed.

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks guys ,
By the way Patrick I was wondering if you could let us know which part of Tassy do you run your boats . Or is there a local club that you run at that we could go and have a look at ?. I'm down from Queensland on a holiday at Tasmania, we are currently at hobart but are slowly making our way north to Launceston where we fly out on Monday. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Jim

Paddy you BASTARD that was my second favourite boat!! The new one will have a tool steel keel to chop you up with.. Long live team Delta!!!!!
Scoot thanks for the info, Have already set up a savings plan with the kids to get to next years with that pest MAD Paddy the Victorian!

[Jimmy Sterling]

Thanks Patty,

What are the chances of you running a boat on the weekend ?. If so, I might give you a call and Dad and I might come down to watch you run. Also do you know of any hobby stores worth checking out. Thanks for the info.

I see how we go in Launceston, my mum and sister will probaly want to go shopping . Which is a good excuse for Dad and I to escape, I probaly will end up giving you a call though. I'll just have to wait to see how it all goes. .
By the way its bloody cold alright, not too bad though. We are thinking of going to Mt Wellington first think in the morning, so I'm guessing that its going to be alot colder up there .
Probaly end up giving you a call on Friday.

Thanks alot
Jim

[Jimmy Sterling]

Man nicley aired out!!! What sort of CG are you running? And Paddy you should stop taking over other people's post's just to shame me! I will have you know that my hydro will make me a million $$$$ and very fit to boot!It is that good that I am coming to Tassy with the kids on one with the boats just to piss you off!!!! It will be a race against the Spirit of Tasmania! Ok no bar or beds but a lot cheaper. Just so everyone knows Paddy goes for the "St killed her footy" team so his credability is shot to *!***!***!***!**!

[Heath M]

Thanks Andy
COG is about 32% on both boats

Sorry Patrick,
Wont be able to come down to visit you. We've had a change of plans, we are heading off to Devonport to meet up with family.
Do you know of ANY decent hobby shops, have'nt been able to find any decent ones so far so far. The ones we have found are no good.

Mate I asked for Deans plugs in the local one and they did not know what I was talking about. You really are in the bush here mate.

You could try OSE or Andrewg.
