If you think that sux Tony, you'll love this. After a long thought, and some discussions at length here at home, I too am withdrawing from this event. My recent wheel update, and my curent project are going to leave me short for spare cash. Sorry guys.

Easy fix,

Sell the GT rims youve got for a quick sell and use that money for Adelaide.

And put your computer on hold.

Don't have 'em Joel. Traded them. But to be brutally honest, I think a few local displays per year is enough for me. My time is very scarce right now. I have even canned my Gold Coast AFD, for a flight up to see family instead. Keeps the cost down, and maximizes the time I have. There are always other displays. My entry papers are free to anyone going that hasn't entered as yet. You just have to notify the organiser of the vehicle change.

I would be appreciative if you would make the booking for Craig and myself. Let me know if you need payment/deposit etc and I will do this.

Looking forward to the show.

We were never 'not coming' : !! Craig and I are really looking forward to it. Should be a great weekend. Craig has been doing a few little jobs on the car - lowered it, sway bar and pump gears. Best of all, I have had the blue silicon hoses, from Jeff @ Pole Position, installed and they look magic!

Cheers

I just thought with the news of ACE there may have been a change in plans. I'm glad I was wrong.

If it's possible to get your car looking any better I will be amazed. Very excited now.

The main problem we have is that it is the long weekend and there is a minimum night stay with most places.

I'll try my best.

Been sending emails left,right and centre but I've stiked out 3 times so far.

Cruising Friday should suite most people,Marty and John can't come Friday and may not come if we don't go Sat.That leaves accom a problem cause most places are a minimum stay.

Don't know about Sunday night,shows on Sunday and most will be stuffed.

I might have to try doing 2 seperate bookings and look at hotels, going to be more expensive but it may be ourt only resort.

I dont care how much it cost to stay in SA it can be a motel were you can book per night.Also find out from the people going to SA,who is going Friday & who is going Saturday. Maybe 2 groups will have to travel up there.
