hi all, 

I'm in the process of revamping the ZOOM SAC (class is full of boys
interested in V8 Supercars). I'm not sure who created the original SAC - but
it was someone on the list (thankyou very much).
Attached is a copy of where I am so far - any suggestions greatfully
received.

regards
Fiona Mackenzie
