after the show last nite, we pushed mums mini out of the building, rolled down the hill a bit (step dad driving) jumped on the brakes and NOTHING!

went across the road to servo to get sum brake fluid filled her up again! was all good for a while! stopped for dinner, s/d got back in the car to go home and NOTHING again, so he cruised back home with no brakes, got home straight into the shed, jacked her up and hey presto!

the steel band that holds the CV boot on had rubbed thru the brake link pipe (twin leading edge setup)

that was an interesting nite

Rohan

other than that the w/e was fantastic

THANK YOU JAN, VMCI COMMITEE AND EVERYONE WHO MADE IT SUCH A GREAT DAY!
