Time for me to admit defeat. I won't make it to Brisbane

. The decision was made at about 2am this morning, at the end of another late night working on my shooting van project. The thing is, if I manage to get the van properly ready for the trip, I won't have time to do some decent load development, and why would you drive 2000km and back to shoot against the best with dodgy loads. And the clincher was that powered sites at the range have been booked out since last year! Obviously if I'd been in the (soon to be victorious) Victorian team, then there would have been no piking.
When the "van cave" is somewhere near to its completion, I'll post photos, and explain the concept

Am really sorry to be missing possibly the biggest Australian F-Class Queens ever. I hope the weather is good and its a great event.
