I filled my car up at about 8pm Saturday night and noticed the
white BGC track marks, by that time they were hardly noticeable, so
are probably gone by now.

Hey, nice to meet Rod Diery and Tony Smith in person after many years
of "knowing" them over the internet.

Regards
Doug

(1) The answer to your question: an American halftrack.

(2) All Ryan's photos are coming up for me, must be on your end. Try a refresh.

Default No problem Karmen

Could have been me as I was attempting an edit before aborting the idea and submitting a new post. Geoff's correct, and am I correct in saying an M3 halftrack? M5's and 9's have rounded rear corners yeah?

Cool! Thanks Geoff.
Bugger, should have been there.

Default Thursday run

Maurice, a local farmer kindly allowed access to his property and had laid out a 6km track along the banks of the Murray River for all to enjoy. Here's a link to the page.

The armour sets out.



Our escort Land-Rover (in which soundman Brian Laurence and I were passengers) decided to pull the Stuarts up with a rather brisk stop. The look of incredulity was surely mirrored by me... but not Brian who wound up in a tangled heap of expensive equipment towards the front of the vehicle as he had nothing to grab hold of other than the mic and mixer.



This is how close the stop was. The worst of it was I'd been taking stills and missed it on video.



A S.E.G. from Pedr.



I can't explain why Rick Sheerman's hindquarters are attracting such rapt attention from the crew of this carrier.



Machine gunner's view of a carrier.



Lang Kidby's beautiful Dodge Carryall in equally beautiful surroundings.



More here.

Thumbs up The Saturday Lineup

A record number of vehicles this year, surely to be exceeded in 2009!

Many thanks, Bruce!

Unfortunately I can't use anything either with commercial music or indeed anything which has been edited, but if you'd like to send me some of your raw footage on DVD it would me much appreciated. Did you do any interviews?

Keith
