On line entry will be available from next week, so get those entries in quickly, open to first 100 entries.

The event will also be TV filmed for the ABC - Collectors, so bring your collections all sparkling and clean because they might just make tv viewing."

See you there!

Oh yeah!...

Should have the Retroscorcher running by then.

[Capt Splatt]

Bit of a bump to bring this thing back in the foreground.

I'm still keen and have had my entry in for a couple weeks. I just put the final (never finishing) touches on my fox for the sportsman class.

It'd be nice to know who else intending on being there. Meeting flesh and blood collectors is half the fun of these meets.

With any luck I'll see a few of you there.

Splatt.

I'll be there with my Blackfoot in Fun Cars, and my *big breath* 89 Associated Worlds Graphite Stealth for c.1990 2WD stock.

Would of loved to have the Sandscorcher ready, but it'll have to be next time.

I'd decided not to run stock, but I'm thinking that my Fox with 2.2 inch rims might just have to step up. After all, slipper clutches, ball diffs and enough shocks for all corners of the car are only small advantages. I fully believe I should still kick butt.

[B.M.T.]

I'd like to have my old Fox back together by the next one.

Don't be too worried, I'm not all that serious (read "good")

...and you get a handle like 'splatt' from apexing every corner??

I suppose it could have been worse. It could have been 'stone cold' (as in stone cold, motherless last)

[B.M.T.]

I'll be gentle with you. I promise
