Sydney AFD - 31 May 09

Pursuit250 · 10-02-2009, 07:23 AM

Hi Guys,

I read this infomation about the Peter Warren All Ford Day in another thread. Looks like it is on, but has a change of venue. Richard, do you want it added to the events calendar?

And the AJC had the hide to whinge when told we are not coming back LOL

This year show day is Sunday 31st May.

Would be good to see a heap of T's huddled together.

Maurie,
If you want to come in as a group contact Eddie for spots etc.

Choppsy.

Count you in for this week. Next week I'm sure you'll be out.

Are we doing an overnighter again? We could stay in Bankstown again, only 35 k's to Eastern Creek. Panthers is only about 25 k's and its along the Western Hwy so quicker.

It is tradition to have an overnighter for this one. I was thinking Panthers (The World of Entertainment), although there is no undercover parking. I remember some time ago when we displayed at Eastern Creek for the V8s, Stace and I stayed at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Parramatta (http://www.crowneplaza.com/h/d/cp/16...uestid=174076#). For $150 a night, this would be a good option. Also, it only 15 kms from the track.

Bankstown rocks. I love it there.

I got rid of my Hairdressers car, and swapped it for a Grandpa's car.

Crowne Plaza sounds ok, but theres a $25 Valet parking fee to consider. Food for thought

$19 If you park yourself. Save $6 and 20Ks less racked up on your ride.

Plan is to meet up with the overnighters about 8.00 am then enter Eastern Creek all together. My idea is to leave Canberra (Shell Epic) about 5.00 am this should get us to Eastern Creek about 8.00 am with a breakfast stop along the way.
What do others think ????

Don't drive too fast Jim. EB's struggle to keep up with the mighty T3 Strokers.

Any update on travel plans yet and accommodation?

Not if the EB stroker puts out almost double the power of a stock T3 Stroker and about 3 times as much as a certain Mondeo Bucky, besides, the power to weight advantage is on my side - I have the power, you have the weight

You'll keep.

Touche. I don't have a come back for that one. Bastard :hihi:

Bucknaked · 01-05-2009, 09:03 PM

Any update on this. It's 4 weeks away this Sunday.

**data_mine** · 02-05-2009, 12:13 AM

True, and I'm trying to decide between this and the drag night/day.

Bucknaked · 02-05-2009, 09:59 AM

If you go to the Drags Chris, stay overnight

:

FASTXR · 02-05-2009, 10:50 AM

Apologies for the delay in replying guys.

For those staying overnight, I've found the following accommodation on Wotif:

Chifley Eastern Creek

The Chifley is literally 100 metres from the front gate of Eastern Creek Raceway, its modern and clean and a delux room is only $104. Obviously I'm not sure how many rooms they have so you might want to jump on and book a room as quickly as possible.

Cheers,

Richard

Yeah, I'll be skipping this drag meet to represent (yo! ?) the club.

Plus there's something really disconcerting about driving for 7 hours and not remembering most of it. (highly not recommended)

big.glenn · 08-05-2009, 06:56 AM

from another site...

All Ford Family Day

Sunday 31st May, 2009

Eastern Creek Raceway

Entrants Gate from 6.30am

General Public from 9.00am

**data_mine** · 08-05-2009, 10:43 AM

100K's less tyre usage too.

Bucknaked · 10-05-2009, 06:42 PM

Not sure I'll make this now. If I do get up to Sydney, I think it will just be as a spectator.

troystanton78 · 10-05-2009, 06:57 PM

anyone know what the entry fee for spectators is
