Hey Paul do you think we could have this event one week earlier? I would love to be there but Neil (Squeaker), the Falcon and myself will be in Winton on that weekend. The shooting for Blood,Sweat and Gears starts on the 22nd at Winton Raceway and finishes there again on the 1st of December.

Ok looking at the form, they are having SVS dyno not TMS no biggie there, but is the dyno a actual dyno comp or is it just to have a blast on the dyno?? any prizes for the dyno runs??

and the cruise hahahaha 5pm Fri arvo are they spastic who the f**k has a super cruise in peak hr traffic on a Fri, and what about the people with cars that have to work, yes there are some of us out there that actually work past 12 on Fri, as well as spectators will they also be on holiday that day...

at this stage I'll be giving it a miss, somebody needs to have a chat with the person that is running the program i think..

I think it was an attempt to stop what happened last year.... but I don't think it'll solve the problem and list limit the numbers for the cruise (as well as spectators).

If anyone is interested in entering a QSS display (5 spots available) let me know. You will also get free entry but will not be eligible for awards if you accept the free entry.

Hardly a Super Cruise when it is limited to 15 cars only.
But its more aimed at public awareness of the car show rather than a supercruise I should imagine.

what happened last year?? i was in the cruise and could see no issue from were i was driving...

at least last year they done a few laps before the cruise of the grounds and the public at the bar could get a look at the cars..

it just seems disorganised to me doing it like this dry.gif

I agree, I was in the super cruise last year towards the back and it ran fine from where I was?!

This sounds retarded and Fri 5pm traffic is horrid in the CBD!
