[color=#810541:post_uid0]All welcome,
Can be any car (even Commodores). All you need is a willingnes to have some fun. :D

I forgot when I posted, it's $50 per driver not car. We have set a maximum of 50 cars and we currently have 20-25 confirmed. :) :)

The day was a blast, wet, but a blast. :D
Slip'n and Slid'n :!:

Only two casualties, a VS diff and a series III Rx-7 nose (both over doing it and showing off).

I honed my driving to clipping the bases of witches hats and some fine handbrake turns, only outdone by my friend Andrew who duplicated what I did but in my car :oops:

You should've been there, really :wink: Shepparton isn't that far from Melbourne and a bit more from Canberra. Had good promise :!:
