chevy, i think you will find that the al performance challenge is the weekend of teh swap, it normally is.
personally, I think the end of october would be better, its further away from spring nats, but both those dates are during my exams, bugger!

Bendigo Swap Meet is on 18-19th of November (i should know that, afterall i'm on the organising committee), and yes there is a drag meet on that saturday the 18th.
Personally i would like to see the event in October, due to some big meets already scheduled for November.
And i know the first week of November is also out with the Ford Nationals....
Just my 2cents worth

Good point Melz, I haven't rung them and spoken to them yet. But I'll come up with some dates and we'll have a poll and vote on the best one or something.
Nevertheless, I'm just itchin to go, no matter which day it is
If I know we got the numbers then I'll book a Saturday like we did last time, that way we'll have the Sunday, just incase we get bad weather.
Otherwise we can just choose from one of the Test-n-Tune Sundays.
Cheers,
Rick.

hey all,
well depending on when you choose the date depends on if me and the boy will be coming up for this day.
Being that come srpingtime generally our car calenders go spastic with events, shows etc, its also a bad time for us to comit to one weekend during this time.
But if its in october i think it will be heaps safer for us to make it. It will give us time to get our cars ready before and after this day for other events which we religiously go to.
So my vote is OCTOBER!!!

My vote is anything, Dad said we can go anytime as we arn't that busy. And the bike is fixed, so he can rock up on that. As it hasn't been riden in a while, it would be a good thing. And I may actully have a Torana by then...

Ahh i tell you.. it was an awesome day...
I spent it running around like a headless chook trying to catch up with the people i knew, and all the new faces! As well as ensure it all ran smoothly it was crazy!
THe best bit was being able to catch up with all the members and see their cars!! It was great to finally put alot of faces to the names and have a bit of a look at their weaponry!
And what was best was seeing all the burning rubber ( STEDZ..... LOL) and the happy smiles as people beat their times and each other!
Top day.. i'm REALLY going to be pissed if/when i miss this one.
If anyone wants to talk to myself or Brett about what we went through and the potential traps and pitfalls feel free to PM me and i'll do all i can! ive definitely got some ideas to help run more smoothly!
Cheers!

at the moment im wanting such beautifull weather again !!!
come on fellas the warm weather isnt that bad but maybe arvo would be pretty kool and into the night but how would people go cruising back at 12am or photos ?????
whats everyones opinion on around the oct 7th or 21st ? maybe steer clear from nov as bright rod run is on as well as benidgo swap also
other option is we all rock up for the holden nats with mark hayes vs simon kryger on oct 14th ????? (get a spot were toranas can be on display HEHEH)
better organise something quick as im dying for the date so i can ask the boss for it off, also write it in the calender
cheers chevy

I say 21st, because it is futher away from the holden nationals, and that gives people more time to get there cars ready etc etc
