Is this a club thing or a general event?

Hey Laminge,

It's open to the general public- like they did at Sandown last year, but I haven't received the flier for this yet. It is pretty much the same thing as last year - posters, merch, signings and plenty of drivers... I didn't want to put it in the general events section until i had the flier.... (nothing like leaving it until the last 2 weeks !)

Goodness me it was chilly!!!!

Here's some shots .......
The B.O.G garage guys.....


2 of our 6 hour entrants..


Drivers aplenty


What the day was about- the kids having some fun.....


Ford reckon 6000 came thru the doors. What I did see, what a heck of a lot of kids and fans all having the chance to have their photo taken or have a handball with their idols...... and nearly all with big smiles on their faces.
I'll whack the pics on the club website tonight...

Thanks to Brett,Keith,Daisy,Phil,Chris,Petra and Mark, Dave and Meg for coming down and having their cars on display for Ford- I hope the early start was worth it for you all.

mathematical equation for the day: dodgem cars + supercar drivers = hilarious! :hihi:

What a great day !!!! i had a ball getting in early setting car up ,having a kick of the footy with Lowndsey and Jamie Whincup was great hitting things all around till footys got taken of us

Also the other highlight was before the punters come in ihad the chance to race Jamie Whincup and craig lowndes on DAYTONA talk about an asssss whipping !!!!!!!!!!!!beat me by half a lap (lucky i went easy on em)

thanks to Karyn and the club for organising this and for us and Ms hilton from FORD a great day in a relaxed atmosphere !!!!!!
