On the way back from Bookham to Yass this afternoon about 4ish I got passed by a silver Hyundai Terrorcan towing a very dusty Black Moke with a Khaki top , an event only car maybe

( probably could be in Spotted but I,ll leave it in this thread )

The Renault car club of aust hold their annual motorkhana weekend (similar to the Hay weekend) in a town just south of you (Jugiong) this weekend. This year is the 49th year. Quite a few MCCNSW folk come along regularly like Aaron, Doogie, and Kelvin (whom I suspect you saw). The motorkhana was today, so perhaps they were on their way home.

There would have been 3 or 4 at least. The club allows any type of car to compete.

Didn't that sign get banned in a thread on here a few years back that "exploded"?

Can't remember the protagonists with any accuracy so won't guess on the grounds of defamation! :D

I went through Yass a few weeks ago, I was looking out for the sign on the off chance that it exists.

I was disappointed :(

Maybe in the sometimes very out-of-date Google Maps it does....but can anyone confirm whether that scrub has overgrown the sign? Has it been ripped out??

I know!! Questions!! :D

It has been a couple of months since I have been past it but it has been standing there proudly offending moderators for at least 15 years.
