About Me
I was orginally born in South Africa and moved to Australia in 1980 in my early 30's
During my time here, in the latter half of the 80's and for the next 10 years, I built, prepared and raced saloon cars/ sports sedans in NSW & Vic. very successfully. We were into the Italian stuff, you know, Alfas, Fiats, Lancias etc. One of our events was known as the Italian Challenge, where we were all out to beat the other marques!!!!
After it became a little toooo...expensive and into the computer era, I decided time to go...retire at the top they say,...so then met a fellow who introduced me to this fantastic game of CAS. Well talk about drug addiction!!!!
It's bloody fantastic and has been over the past 20 years or so, only wish I knew about it earlier??
So it's a big "Howdy" to y'all!
Now moved to Oklahoma for a short period of time ~5 years or so,on & off, to play lots of cowboy action, and see some of the beautiful USA at the same time, during my early twilight years, while I'm still able.

Well it's been almost 5 years and we are returning to Oz reluctantly, as US Immigration have said we are spending too much time in the USA on our B1/B2 visas. During that time we've travelled approx 100000 miles, done 34 states and shot almost 500 matches. It's been a wonderful experience and we have met the most fabulous people, we're going to miss y'all.
Kat and I will be returning just for short trips like we used to do, EOT, WR and other events close to those, but for now we will be going back to work in Australia because it's just too expensive to live on retirement funds there?
No doubt we will be seeing you along the trail somewheres. Thanks to y'all.
