I was lucky enough through my work to be invited to a special night where Steven Richards and Jason Bargwanna were going to be present on the Friday night. There was free food and beer, and we were able to chat with the 2 super car drivers. Both drivers were awesome, and were quite happy to spend time and chat with you. The owner of the buisness also asked me if i could put a couple of cars on show on the public opening day on Saturday, alongside the v8 super car that was driven last year by Murphy. It ended up being a wet day, but i dont think it really mattered.

Sounds like you had a good day.
I won a competition with Castrol a couple years ago & got to go to Paul Morris's test track in Queensland & drive some of the ex Supercars, Steven Richards was there & hung around all day, he is a real nice bloke. Best part of that day was the 3 hot laps with him driving an AU T Series Bargsy used to live in the same town I work in & used to come in heaps, his a top bloke too. We had a ride on mower fall off a trailer once & he signed the bonnet for us lol.
