Message From The President

 
I wanted to thank everyone for their understanding and patience over the holiday period as my family in Sydney dealt with the illness and then passing away of my mother just before Christmas. Mum's death has been a huge blow to all of us, especially so for my father after 64 years of marriage, and as both the eldest son and the Executor of my parent's estate I have been very caught up in the administration which has been endless.
 
Out of this inevitable part of life if I could provide one piece of advice to all, and that is make sure you talk about your own and your loved one's wishes before they die, it is just so important to have everything understood and it really helps to manage the grief.
 
We seem to be through the worst of it now, and probably like many Club members I am starting to feel the need, the need for (speed?), no, the need for an MR2 going around corners like no other car can.  
 
So, the WHOLE Run Calendar is about to be posted in the top section of this part of the Forum as a sticky. Please write down, copy and paste, page capture, Instagram (can it do that?), tweet, whatever, the dates and activities, plus if you have any special requests then let me know.
 
For people who have just purchased the overall best sports car in the world, or those who may have had other things to do last year, (Dom and Knightrous where are you? ) we always put up a Run List about two weeks prior to each activity, and a few days before the Run we send out detailed Run Sheets which provide navigation details.
 
Because we all no doubt would like to get MR2'ing ASAP we will hold the AGM in March. This is still compliant with the legal requirements as we have not yet been incorporated for 12 months.
 
If there are any questions please send me a PM. Thanks again for waiting for news of what we are doing,
 
Walter

    Walter, I'm sure I can speak for all in the Club when I say our thoughts have been with you, Kathy and your family during this testing time.  We're looking forward to life settling down, and getting back to the things we enjoy.

    Sorry to hear the loss of a family member Walter. I hope owning a couple of the best sports cars in the world at least helps easy the pain.
     
    tralfazKnightrous where are you?

    I'm out for a little bit after a nasty alternator failure in my AW11 fried the ECU. Currently awaiting replacement parts and time to rebuild it, which will probably lead to me doing a host of those changes at the same time. Will endeavour to bring it out for a run before I hand in the rego plates this year.

    Thanks for the update Walter, my condolences for your loss.  The last few months must have been a very stressful time indeed.


    Go soothingly on the grease mud as there lurks a skid demon.
