On behalf of the winners and the club I would like to say thank you so much to Grant, Cindy and all of the Autohaus Hamilton Team who made yesterdays end of year ''Hot Laps'' and Autohaus Hamilton Observation Run Series a reality.

It is not possible to put into words the experience of flying through the pine forest at up to 180 kmph in Jeff David's magnificent Porsche Rally Car, hopefully these photos will convey some of the excitement.

Also a very special thank you to Jeff for taking the time and providing your car and your amazing driving skills on the day. Jeff, you must have been just a little tired after so many laps but it was very much appreciated by our overall winner Sanjay, placegetters Mark, Matt, Shane and their friends.
