That's it! Battle vinyl, at the ready!!! :jk: :Dj: Haha, I'm not gonna claim to be a gun DJ anyway. I get by, though... Got plenty of house and some breaks tunes, and can probably secure at least one more friend to help DJ if necessary.
On to the main topic though, I was thinking maybe having separate days, maybe one with Unique at Oran for a drift/circuit day, and then another event (maybe 6 months later?) at WSID for the drags and SnS (and maybe skid-pan?).
But then I thought:
a) a combined UAS/SAU drift/circuit day would probably be the same as a UAS day on its own, and attract barely any more individuals and cars as any other circuit day held by UAS, especially if there was no SnS element;
B) the same would probably apply to a drags/SnS day, with maybe just a small percentage greater attendance for the "Show" part of the day; and
c) I have no idea on how much more having separate events may cost.
IIRC, someone did mention that using Mingara was pretty easy on the Club's resources (as in monetarily, and relatively speaking, of course), in comparison to hosting the event somewhere down here.
Personally, I don't mind that the show is at Mingara (gives me the chance to get away from Sydney and see some friends and relatives who live on the Central Coast), but maybe a larger concreted area should be considered and requested next time around, if possible. I think the bogging issue, although minor this year, might be a concern if the weather is not as nice to us next time around, and I think a lot will agree that car photos look better when taken on a tarmac surface.
I'll volunteer for next year too, unfortunately I got there fairly late this year and had to leave early, so even though I did put my hand up initially, I couldn't really offer much help on the day (sorry guys...).
Cheers, and thanks all for an undoubtedly great day,
Nick T.
