[twilightprotege]

yes it's been rescheduled.

here's the details :

naturally being the 2nd round of the championship i'll be making the trip down. I’ll be heading down on the 15th of december, hoping to be there very late arvo. Will use Friday to prep the car and to catch up with any peeps wanting to catch up with me. Saturday heading out to the track. First 3 ppl to put their name down as coming along with me get in for $15 like the details say instead of the $20, however I will be going out early-ish.

so, anyone going to come along and cheer twiggy on?

[CHiMPY]

Is that the same thing you WERE coming down for on the 26th november?

[Nate]

any other time i would come down twiggmiester but i only just got back fromthe big smoke on monday and am neck deep in debt to the rents so count me out for this one :(

GOOD LUCK THO!! :D

[twilightprotege]

yeah this replaces the 27th of november event

[CHiMPY]

hmm..
Well not going to commit 100% but I might have to tag along just to check out what WSID actually looks like (did I mention I drive past it on a daily basis but have never actually been)

[skippy]

Should be there with some work mates,

Will get your number if I go, to make sure I get your times and don't miss ya,

If you are wanting any technically incompetant crew I'll be in.

[Critter]

I'd be up for a get-together/cruise except on the Sunday after (18th).
Will try to get there as well (as a speccy).

[Toyboy]

Ill have other plans that day,i turn the BIG 3-0:p

[twilightprotege]

for peeps coming along on the day, i'm going to be there at 9am. a mate who races in all motor will be with me (old honda civic hatch - red)

anyway, with our entry fee we get 3 "crew" passes. essentially 6 people can tag along in under my entry and my mate's entry fee...so for anyone who plans to meet me there at 9am you can get the passes off me for $15. saves you $5 on entry fee. once i enter the grounds, this offer is g-g-g-gone.....

[Nate]

i still have an air fair wating to be used and virgin has $69 tickets to sydney atm ... if someone wants to pick me up from the airport and drop me back there in the pm (or at least at the local train station i might come down for the day ...

[Nate]

You need the brown paper bag over the long neck to fit in around blacktown station.

[twilightprotege]

Sun - early morning, stumble home from piss up, fall into passenger seat of SP20 with a few brewski's for andy, sleep all the way to brisbane, 7pm - my chemical romance concert and more beer :D

[twilightprotege]

[scoobs]

ill come round to watch you guys race and meet a couple of u guys hope its good wheather its been s**t recently

[twilightprotege]

yeah i'll hate traveling all that way and for it to rain. will be really crappy.

[Red Frog]

it doesn't rain in Sydney, Andy ;) that's why we're not allowed to wash our cars, water our gardens or flush our toilets. nah, weather will be fantastic, as I am outdoors b/t 8-4 that day with kids - so it bloody well better be good! :p

[platypus]

it doesn't rain in Brisbane according to our dam levels!!!
Sydney 40 something percent
Brisbane 30 something percent

Leigh - check channel 40 :p

[Red Frog]

hahaha that's funny u say that, cos i was only baggin nate out the other nite as we had more water than brisbane - courtesy of channel 40. but still, u guys have floods, we don't :D

[Nate]

ok flight is booked for Saturday leaving brisbane at 5:30 am :eek: and arriving at sydney airport at 8am!

if anyone is heading out the drags a ride would be ubber appreciated :D if not its on the train for me :p

[twilightprotege]

could always taxi to where i am staying and come along with me.

probably only a 1/2 hour trip

[skippy]

yeap shall be going with a couple of mates,

What is the best time to get there? as a spectator?

Who Is going?

[twilightprotege]

if anyone turns up with me they can get in for $15 instead of $20, however i'll be at the gates at probably 930am.

[Nate]

taxi!! do you think im made on money :p

looks like ill be on the train i can make the 9:15 to wentworthville, any chances of a lift twiggy or will you have left by then?

[twilightprotege]

what time does it get into wentworthville?

[Critter]

I can prolly organise a lift from the station to WSID.
Will be going in the shi%%^er Magna wagon though, not parking my SP20 with the punters at WSID!
Sorry but the airport is nearly 2 hours from my place.....

You'd likely be better catching a Blue Mountains train from Central to Blacktown, it is an express and better train, but you would be looking at the 9.18 train which gets to Blacktown 9.54

[Nate]

thanks critter its ok ... i wouldnt expect you to go that far out of your way! sorry andy i went the train gets into wentworthville at 9:15! ... there is a 8:15 from the airport to central, then the 8:36 on the western line will take me to wentworthville at 9:15

[AS7INA]

hey i used to live at wentworthville.. how old are ya friends that live there, might know 'em ????!!!

[twilightprotege]

i'm staying in the formuleshoebox motel there

[ROB-80E]

Twiggy, i never submitted my entry mate. I still haven't got my turbo back...so no racing for me. :(

[twilightprotege]

:(

are you going to come along as a spectator?

[ROB-80E]

Probably not mate. Got to be at a gathering later that night back in newy, plus, i really wanted to be racing...not watching...so it'd be a bit hard. :(

[Critter]

Well I shall be there cheering the twiggy on....:)

[Nate]

me too

[Critter]

Sorry not to make it but a lady friend arrived home unexpectedly from OS on Friday night. Very pleased to see her

These things take time..... :)

[twilightprotege]

well i didnt do so well. no prize money for mr twig this time

















but i did take home the winner's trophy!

[boostedbatman]

Oh you poor thing did that mean you had to front your own fuel bill on the way home
I might ring the organisers and tell them to include a tank with every trophy

Like anyone here doubted the beast
Oh and the driver



Well done there Bodey

And a local from here took out the All Motor class as well

Go the 'toads

[twilightprotege]

funny - my manager spotted me driving through albany creek without a bonnet on sunday.

[Nate]
