I have to agree with Tori... we DO NOT camp! It will be hard enough having to drive past the camp sites along Inskip Point!

I disagree Kerri - anything under four stars is camping....

Anybody who has stayed at Jackie Howe (aka Nipple Cripple) Motor Inn would have to agree with that.

Hey Lissa - Did you enquire after the shower roses in our accom at Gympie and ensure they are nipple friendly???

We have organised for both cars to be there for the show and shine. Chris is very excited that he has been able to organise this as I will be at netball on the Saturday morning and won't catch up with you all until late in the afternoon, probably after the cruise DOH!

Last count was 30 cars I think. With 2 1/2 weeks to go, we should push the 40 mark hopefully.

I have a few new members coming from up this way.

Update...

Another busy day wheeling and dealing has produced some added attractions for the show'n'shine. As listed earlier, Peter Allan's Action Ford has organised an RACQ display, the Metro Ford Trailer Tool Display and Ford/FPV Merchandise for sale. Today we have organised a large Motorcycle Country motor bike display, a Tyrepower rim and tyre display with hopefully the Tyrepower promotional 28" rim package (for the ricers!), and the Craig Lowndes V8 Falcon Supercar Replica which has been doing the Show/Exhibition circuit (75% sure it will be here).

Should be a great morning.

Great work Shockwave, you have put alot of effort into this. It looks as if we have a fair amount of clubbies for this one to support your efforts. Now all we need is for the locals to turn up.

Cheers

Jeff

Thanks Jeff. I'm expecting a good roll up of good old Ford yokels and I have even had a few phone calls from guys up here wanting to join the club, so that's great. Action Ford are right behind this event and will be advertising it in the paper etc. Excellent support from the Clubbies. See you soon mate.

Yes, you can have a passenger, BUT I would strongly recommend bringing both as it's an excellent opportunity to learn a lot about your car and your driving habits. We have a new member with a hot E series XR8 coming so it would be great to boost the E series numbers :eclipsee_

No burnout pad, sorry. You can cut loose and have as much fun as you want on the wet concrete :evil3: but not on the dry bitumen areas.
