I am in Australia too 
, living in Melbourne,

My knowledge of front running is limited to what I have learnt from videos by @Austin-Williams.

Front running ~ messing with civilians
Back running ~ playing with other sharks
Please ask all the questions that you need. Feel free to share some of the code that you have been unpacking. Happy to help where I can.
