    Was your cressy parked right at the entry gate slim? Looked good, I parked my Cresta next to it.

    I was going to bring down the MS65 early, but couldn't get my girlfriend out of bed, and I can only drive my cressy for the next couple of months due to licence restrictions.

    She just really didn't appreciate any appeal of waking up at 7am so she could drive down and spend the day sitting around in a park with a car, sadly

    Yeah man, that was mine. I turned up late so i got the Costanza spot.

    I didn't see your Cresta. Might have been gone when i went to leave. I left after 1pm.

    there were actually little over 120 cars on the oval, and yes could easily fit another fifthty
    but permit allowed only 120 to minimize damage. i understand there were maybe another
    10 to 20 cars not arriving before shut off time, and who knows how many didnt come because
    fear of being bogged due to sat rain. having said that ground had no visable effect from rain

    i think that there should be a special mention to the catering crew
    who did an outstanding job , and the sausages were good as well , i had four
    i might be getting sentimental in my dottering twighlight years
    but this was one of those " very proud to belong to a club " moments
    nostalgia is not what it used to be:
