Summernats

[Tragic]

Haha well get ready to slit your wrists It has to go into a certain amount of events to be eligable to win the sword

[benm]

I know it does but couldn't u just put it on a flatbed and drive that around the events instead... that thing is too nice and clean to get dirty or smoke some tyres

[75coupe]

Summernats is a must....

White top, white top, white top.... been practising the chants...

If you don't know what that means, you will when you walk the cruise route...

Keep a look out for a red commodore ute at the dyno, they are hoping to crack 2000hp street car...

383 stroker twin turbo.... the kind of turbos that suck small animals in...

I didn't see any defect lines the last two years but then again I didn't drive the skyline, maybe I won't this year either....

At night there are huge enormous lines of modified imports lining every street in the metro area, people set up deck chairs and campsites on the street to watch the parade... The showground is for the muscle the streets are for the imports and anyone who has a modified car...

They seem to hang around industrial estates as well for some reason....

God I love summernats.... car heaven

[RedDrifter]

Well I'm in for the thursday and or friday.

Dunno if we will stay for a night as its only me mate and I comin now, unless someone has room for 2 crazy car nuts and an R32

[SECURITY]

i might be heading down on the 5th. still deciding whether or not to take the skyline.

[Sinful]

We will be there on the Saturday and Sunday

[NXTIME]

Car won't be ready for the 'nats thanks to some einstein express posting a part just before the break so that it will take 5 days to get to me. Not happy.

/rant.

I might still head down anyway...

Oh thats a shame

Why is it $8 more on Saturday then Sunday??

[Tragic]

Saturday goes all night with a live show ect where as sunday closes at 5ish

[benm]

Yup sunday is a pretty non-eventful day besides the burnout show in the afternoon. I've never yet stayed and watched all of the burnouts because its generally sooooo hot that after 2-3 days of it you just want to get home out of the heat.

I'm thinking this year I might just go down early sat and come back very late at night after the main showground show is over and save my money from sunday and buy the dvd instead, still unsure.

[2rismo]

Call me when you're down there, Ben.

[benm]

Just a reminder you can't take alcohol or bottles of soft drink or any eskies into the venue otherwise they will remove them from you upon entry.

Last year I got caught out with a couple of bottles of cold coke (35c days) only to have them removed forcing me to buy $4 600ml bottles all day which gets quite expensive.

[Kinks]

I know it is very V8 orintated and can be a bit harsh on the girls

Last time I went to summernats everyone was very complimentary towards the girls. Although, it may have been the particular area I was in, I'm not sure

Anyway, I should be there on the saturday. Maybe bump into some people I know!

[Donnan]

Many of the local Skyline people will be meeting up at the National Museum before cruising into Braddon or wherever. Meeting time is anywhere from 6:30pm so it is a bit hard to guage how many people will actually show up. It would be good to meet some people from out of town and have a massive convoy of skylines.

[Frink]

you beat me to it!

Meeting place: National Museum of Australia

Time: 6pm for a 6.30pm leave

basically, we all meet there, have a bit of a chat, then at 6.30 we'll all cruise into braddon, find some parking and watch the entertainment.... maybe a little later in the evening we might even go for cruise. should be a fun night....

[Sinful]

Oh what skyline cruise

Wish you gave us a bit more notice so would of definatly come but we came down in the BMW

Would of loved catching up with fellow SAUers have seen some cruising around skyline thats it but none have SAU stickers whats with that ????

Jess

[Frink]

yeah, sorry about that..... it was a little last minute. but us ACT'ers are quite a close bunch and if something is being organised for that night, word usually spreads pretty quickly.

it wasn't a big turnout anyway. it was a bit early in the evening for most people. but you can be sure that every year during summernats, ACT SAU will be out crusing almost every night of the week! we'll try to be more organised next year....
