    G`day Folks,

    First of all apologies for being a couple of days late this week but other duties have been occupying my time,

    Anyway, this week we are looking at the 2016 Muscle Car Masters Event at Eastern Creek in the west of Sydney.

    What`s that got to do with model railways you ask.????.....nothing at all says I ,but I felt it was time to mix it up a bit on Gormo`s Shed. I know we do have some car enthusiasts on the forum and besides that, most are of an age where some of the cars will create some nostalgia for us.

    To me there is nothing like the sound of a good engine being worked and it`s music to my ears when they crank over some of those V8`s. Have a listen for the dark coloured Mustang. I don`t know what else is under the hood there but it sounds wicked when it gets going.....Ooohh la la.

    I also loved the little Brit Racing Green MG midget. The driver kicks it over and revs it and there is no perceivable movement from the engine. The block must be welded to the sub frame.????:scratchchin:

    Okey dokey.....here we go.......enjoy the video.

    Great video Gormo
    We usually go to the Masters will be the first one missed since the first one but they changed the concept this year so we didn't even look at going and taking the Car

    Would have liked to have gone out to the Creek for the day, but my weekend was sown up going to the Zombie Walk in town yesterday and today I was at home with the boys whilst SWMBO went out for the day... :whatever:

    Anyway, great video Gormo and you got a shot of the Matich SR3, a beautiful machine. By any chance, was the Matich SR4 out there ??

    Cheers, Gary.

    ps. The Tasman Revival is coming up on November 19-20... If any members here are keen to go, let me know as I shall be out there. See here : http://tasmanrevival.com/the-cars/

    Gary.......I`ll have to check the calendar........I`m still a busy fellow for the moment so will have to see how it pans out.??....Not sure about the SR 4......I`ll have to ask the boys if they saw it.???
