    What a day!! We took the long way via Tumut while went over the top. Most of the day was spent driving through rain and cloud. Would have been okay but the truck continued to go into limp mode - 20 times no less. Sometimes I had to stop in the middle of the road, in cloud, to stop and start to cancel limp mode. But we made it. Just one day of the Cannonball Run left to go.Read more
