Now we're Fully Committed.


Well, we had quite the mission today. 1: get out of bed, have breakfast, grab the Pikes Peak-bound evo and drive from where we live in the very southern suburbs of Sydney to Brookvale which is on the very northern end of the Sydney suburbs, which took about 1.5 hours as we were going with the traffic into the city, then against the traffic once on the Northshore and over the Harbour Bridge, which meant all the traffic was now coming at us, a good thing, until you get to parts where they have ALL the lanes and we have one, which means our 3 lanes of traffic get squeezed into one lane heading north. But I digress. So we finally got to Brookvale which was our first stop ( did I mention it was Peak Hour Traffic and I was in the rally evo with a competition clutch? - creep, stop, creep, stop, brake, creep stop, bastard just cut me off, well, you get the idea..) to collect our newly purchased and imported evo 6 which had to be complianced for Australian Roads, sort of the EPA/DOT requirement to put it on the Aussie roads for the US friends out there reading this.

Anyways... Next stop was Way up north in Newcastle to drop the evo 8 off for shipment to California, which is it's next stop, providing it gets on the boat ok. Oh, which, by the way, also has our Tow vehicle on it which is coming from LA - shouldve just left it in LA and used it while we are there, oh well. So we picked up one evo (evo 6) dropped off the other evo for shipment (evo 8) and came home, except we have to do the 3 hour drive again next week to pick up our truck. Phew.

The pic is the battle ready evo 8 (black) now delivered dock side with the evo 6 sitting next to it which was our chariot home. We used Cath's Iphone to take the shot as my phone decided to now work right when I needed it to to use the maps feature to get us to our destination.
