It would seem that you would have a vested interest in this event do you??. Do you have any idea what it takes to organise one of there's?? no didnt think so, but you are quick to point out some other's efforts, but like most of the rest you sit back and let all of the others do all the work. How about you get of your **** and get one going. How would you like to put your hand in your pocket to the tune of $5,000 just for insurance not to mention all the other expenses and that is even before the council give you the go ahead.

Yes some of my comments have been on the negative side because i was part of the club that use to put on the Croydon and Boronia shows, and watched as morons turned it into shiit. I just hope that the idiot factor doesnt stuff this one up as well. BJ

Every time I post up about something about this event you seem to always have to make some sort of negative comment about it and that annoys the hell out of me so I thought I would annoy you back :

The vested interest in this I have is that its close to where I live, some members have not even gone to the Croydon event but you always have to refer to how good Croydon was and this is nothing like Croydon, who cares, the photos I post up speak for themselves.

And as you know what it takes to organise these shows you should be trying to promote it not destroy it for others.

I am sorry that Croydon and Boronia are no more but that was then, this is now, you even attend this event so it must be worthwhile in some respect.

And how about I get off my a$$, well I am the one that posts when it is on, I am the one that takes loads of photo's of each event, I am the one that posts the pictures up on the Forums for other members to see..............this is not what I call sitting on my a$$ doing nothing. and this process does note take seconds to do, it takes numerous hours.........

You also asked where does the gate money go, if you know what it costs to organise this why post that question up? Would it not go to the running costs and if it doesn't, who really cares................

Now some members like to advise other members when events are on and post pictures up of the events if they go, I see this as supporting the Forums as well as I love seeing photos from events I can't go to or don't go to - be that they are interstate or in Victoria.......

I don't think the early meets before Croydon at the cnr of Canturbry & Colchester rds in Kilsyth had the BBQ going. I gather some of the takings would go to the Knox centre managment for using the parking area.

Wonderfull pics DRHEMI. Thanks for taking what must have been hours, to post them up.
My, BJ is a touchy one. On a lighter note I had to laugh at the GTS R wing copy ... the mounting brackets aren't even centralised. And the welding on the manifold on the Charger R/T ... well what can I say?
