G'day from can'bra

Postby Adz on Wed Jan 14, 2009 7:50 am

Hey guys,

I bought a GLX-R 3.5L V6 triton about 6 weeks ago....absolutely love it!

Anyway, just thought I'd drop in & introduce myself. Im Adz, I live in Canberra (well, Jerrabomberra which is technically in NSW) :)

This is my first ever 4x4 & I intend to do some training on how to drive properly.

Well, thats about it, have a great day.

Cheers,
Adz. 8-)

G'day Adz. Welcome. We're not all dirty, smelly, slow, smoky, oily, bloody. Some of us drive V6's and some aren't even elitist.

If you're interested in training there are some local clubs which run good training and will happily help the newbies through that learning curve. Some charge through the nose and others don't. PM me if you're interested.
