Hands Up all the Aussies

[Mud]

Brisbane is a congested port so often ships will bypass and go direct to Port Kembla, with the cars unloaded and picked up and returned to Brisbane by another ship, or same ship on return...

The Amethyst Ace is in Melbourne now. Let's hope she stops at Brisbane on her way back north.

Any Proto owners have ship names for your vehicles? Dealers should have the info

East is fun too very different to the West but fantastic in its own way. The drive over lake leake and then follow the east coast south is a good time

I am already here hoping the Proto turns up in the next few weeks.

Tas is a great place to tour in Aus. plenty of good roads and then there is always this...

We did the Targa Tasmania tour this year and it was awesome experience. The best stage was Mt Arrowsmith and the all the stages from Strahan to Hobart were awesome.

And I nearly forgot, Baskerville! Its a great track, very technical. lots of altitude changes and compound curves.

The west coast if great for touring and also up near elephant pass, lake leake and central highlands. If you are coming for a drive, best to allow a week and to an anticlockwise loop.

Literally drove past my work on a truck when I was out the back.. Any other second of any other day I wouldn't have seen it
I took this photo July 12. It was only here for 5 days and 3 of those were in the holding yard.. The other 2 obviously shooting the footage.

Nice,

the paperwork I've seen (for a Demo car) definitely was for the Amethyst Ace, which seemed to bypass BNE for Port Kembla and MEL. But it is headed back that way now.
