[Gypsy23]

hi Craig, Dave, Adam and I'm not sure who else were gonna meet up at the twin caltexes, not sure what time either !! I'll let you know as soon as I know.
Got some business cards for Nationals to give you as well, hope you are all well, cheers Danae

[Chickenman]

Hey Craig, will catch you there, Michelle and I will already be in Sydney for the weekend. Sadly though will not be in the Celica.

[Hiro]

Both me and Cara are going this year (both cars too), only planning on entering the Corolla though (it's not trophy material, but I like people looking at it and asking questions) so I'll probably leave earlier so may meet up with you guys.

Any Newy people staying for the dinner? My stomach is eagerly anticipating Lowenbrau and pork knuckle already

[Euphoria]

I might be keen, whats roads you going down on? all freeway?

[toyo-al]

I would be tagging along though I'm not at Newy this time.... I'm up the coast visiting the olds!

Isn't the Mattara Hill Climb on the same day as well?? I think it could be the 4th and 5th of Oct... Hard to choose between the two events!

Yep, Mattara is on the Sunday and Monday - the two events often clash (as they're usually on the October long weekend).

I'll probably make an appearance at Mattara on the Monday, still hungover though of course

I'd be allowing 2 hours, in case anyone is trailering. Thing to remember is that even though it's a Sunday morning, it's also the long weekend, plus it is NRL Grand Final day and we're going in the general direction of Homebush so traffic is going to be unpredictable. Better to get there early and go grab second breakfast than rock up late and miss registration.

[De@No]

Yeh guys if i was you i would beleaving before seven....just incase the traffic hits hard when u get to sydney.

[craig28celica]

ok we will leave at 6:45am at latest. traffic hasnt been a problem before, but just in case.
