Spotted a beautiful light green original sliding window 850 on the Hume heading towards Campbelltown on Tuesday at around 7pm. If it is someone here, I was in the blue ASX that level pegged with you for a while before heading off. Sorry, no pic, I was by myself and doing 110.

Sorry, let me clarify :lol:

I caught up to it doing 110, then slowed to about 85 to level peg it, then took off at 110 again :lol:

As for the plates, I am ashamed to admit, I didn't even notice. :oops:

Possibly Tony Self?
Can't remember his Ausmini name.
But that has a 998 and some sort of weber on it.
