The handle looks like a ring pull!

For anyone travelling to Goulburn on Saturday 12th, a convoy will be leaving the 7-11 at Pheasants Nest at 12.00 midday.
We will be having a meet 'n greet at the Mercure Goulburn (used to be Trappers) later on Saturday evening, with pizza and the odd cleansing ale. A collection will be taken up to cover the costs.
Scrutineering (safety check) will commence at 7.00am Sunday morning at Wakefield Park. Our Corvettes can be put through first, after which I need your help (6 to 8 people) to do the safety checks on other cars which will follow. This is a simple safety check list on registered cars. Non registered race cars will be scrutineerd by HSV officials, as they require a more detailed process.
For anyone staying Sunday night (I hope everyone is) we will have the usual post-event dinner at the Paragon restaurant in Goulburn........good food, good wine, and great company to finish off the weekend.
I hope all of you have had no dramas preparing your Corvettes, and we can all look forward to a fabulous weekend enjoying our cars.  :cheers:   :drag:

We'll be travelling a bit later after having picked up the hired car trailer, etc.

See you at the gutter party. What time is that expected to kick off?

Lead foot I believe was a success.
a well run day by our HSV cousins,
Now we can look forward to next year at  Winton. and the possibility of Phillips island mid year.

We had a wonderful day. Thank you to the organisers, participants, spectators and all those who helped out on the day.

To all that have never been to a Leadfoot, it is a wonderful event and provides a rare opportunity to see our machines doing what they were designed to do in a safe environment, amongst friends.

NSW retained the Leadfoot Trophy. (truth be known, we can't give the the ugly damn thing away!).   :lol:
