G'day All
 
As one grows older, one's memory tends to fade a bit  :blush:  so I thought I would throw up a few pics from my previous Toranafests 
 
Gotta teach'em young

Two blokes were too tight to book a room so they slept in their A9X's

Now jump 2 years to biennial 2015 Toranafest
 
At the Toranafest cruise, one fella had forgotten where he parked his Torana  :wtf:
Yes, that's him on the left scratching his head

Two different events and probably should not be compared directly. Toranafest has matured into a fantastic event and I am sure will be even better this year.. The Canberra Nationals was a good event for its inagural show.  Pity the weather

had a lot to do with lower attendances and overall atmosphere.  Again I am sure it will improve with time.

 

And I am starting to get excited about the treck up to Newy in just over a week....YIPPEE..Bring on Wadey :rockon:

That is "shocking" mate that you would threaten a bloke like Wadey with that sort of implement.  Wadey has his own revenge tools packed away too :rockon:

Foreigners will require a pass to get into the elite motel for Toranafest. Your details have been handed to the motel mangement for black bans. Oh by the way, are either of your girls bringing a Torana to the event?????? Thought not...
