Re above ^^^^ the thong slapper will be there but Danny will be representing me. No way in hell can I even make it as a passenger. Some things cannot happen short of a miracle.

I will be thinking of you all though and yes I know I will be missing out.

I cant confirm whether i will be there this year. There are Many things im trying to save for and just not sure if i am willing to spend the money to get it up there. Used 2 tanks of fuel last year towing with 3.9 gears and not sure if i can do it. Will try and get up there in another car though.

Mine was terrible, had a full tank (55L odd) and barely made it onto the grass. Wasnt too impressed lol. Plenty of fuel stops at thornleigh and just around the corner from where the event actually is.

Everyone can move up a few numbers -we're (me, torriechick & covert_LC) out this year :(

I do have accomadation I'll be cancelling - sleeps 4 (double & 2 singles), can pass on details as they'll now have a vacancy.

Fingers crossed for next year!

Wanted: 2.78 diff centre for use over Toranafest W/end - please see Mitch :P
I'm sure someone here can help mate. And there are bound to be some members in the area who aren't taking a Torana who may want to ride up and share fuel costs :D All Campbelltonions please PM Mitch.

Pete, sounds like a good idea on the forum member names on the form.
Mick and I discussed it many moons ago, when it would have added enough extra work to be "too much",
but I know he'll appreciate it if your capable self is putting the hand up to administer it hehehe

Grant..

I wish that were true re Bev missing me lol But I am certain it's the car she likes ;)
The car will be there and vastly improved inside and out from when she last sat in the car so she should not be disappointed at all. I hope she graces the car with her presence again....

what about you use a trailor that looks brand new from a petrol station or even better kennards sounds like stupid idea but i used one that was old and crappy and guess what it was old and crap and i used a new one and it was a dream to tow from kennards cheers rob350 hatch that,s my 2 bobs worth

I've noticed that too Billy.
This mob http://www.handyhiretrailers.com.au/ have just about cornered the market here in Melb. as far as servo trailers go.
Since they swallowed everything up, the quality of the trailers has improved.
