the most difficult heading to date with a mild headache and a smile …..

Searched high and low for a source of updates around the Kyalami auction …. then a brain wave, watch tweets. Heard it was to be at noon, then to be the last of X auctions. We are very busy at the office and I am hopping on to my cell to follow progress. Then the tweets start, fast and furious and it is over faster than a race event at the track. Then the feared tweet, it has been sold. To a phone bidder. I walk up and down like a caged cougar in anticipation like waiting for bank approval on a 1965 Ford Mustang 350GT … Who bought it? My mind racing, weighing up the good and the bad …. Then a relief unexplainable, the new owner, Tobie Venter, Porsche SA! A nightmare has come to an end.

My source of GOOD NEWS, Thomas Falkiner’s tweets! Thanks Sire!

Thanks to Toby Venter, we will run the gauntlet again!

From all real Petrol Heads, thank you Toby! Much appreciated!

As the sun sets over the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit, we know and are thankful that this remains a race track. It has been a hard day, I am clocking out.
