My BBQ isnt big enough for 150 snags Mitch (unfortunately)

Its a small, 40cm round plate BBQ (vintage too!)

We've just organised between out guys so that we all bring something (one brings meat, one brings salads, one brings bread) to cover lunch

Happy to throw $$ in if it means someone can bring a big BBQ and go down that path too? but seems the boat might have sailed on that one.

Message from Rob as he cant make it to the computer at the moment

Yes BBQ's are allowed
He mentioned Mitch you can bring the snags but like you mentioned probably a little late to get a head count for who wants some
Rob mentioned he will bring bottles of water to help out on the fluid side of things and he also mentioned he can bring rolls if anyone needed them , i suppose let him know through here so when he checks later he will have an idea on how many to bring?

I am coming out for a look around 12.00pm.

Why not just call Dominos and have pizza? We have called them at Eastern Creek race track before and they deliver no problems.

Pink car made it & true to form, ran consistant never missing a beat. Mind you i only had two passes in it, Belle did 21. Think i might hang onto the ETs for now, just in case. Thanks Rob350hatch for organising a great day, my family had a ball & we're looking forward to the next one.
