BIG4 Shepparton Parklands

OK, I just rang the above caravan/cabin park and the owner said that normally he would be able to negotiate the "Min 4 night stay" deal, however, the last weekend in Oct is Melbourne Cup weekend and in this instance, it's not negotiable.

Other thing to consider is all the good parks will book out quickly so back to square 1 unfortunately.

as if people stay in shepparton to go see the melbourne cup 188kms away

and melbourne cup is the firt tues in november

AAMI Derby Day is 29th october but again i doubt people would stay @ shepparton to go there

While I won't be attending, I can recommend to ya'll to spend an extra day (maybe two) and head east along to Bright or Myrtleford. The Great Alpine Road runs from Wangaratta up to Mt Hotham along the ovens river, and connects to Hotham, Falls Creek, Mt Buffalo and Mt Beauty, all excellent roads with some of the greatest scenery this country has to offer.

You won't regret it.

Country Comfort looks good guys........which actual nights are we staying though....and is it 2 or 3 nights?

EDIT: Just saw Dion's post

Event SummaryFri 28th - Arrival into Shepparton during the Day/Night <- Arrival into Shepparton.....

Sat 29th Day - Track day @ Winton Raceway

Sat 29th Evening - Finger food/group function & Track Day Trophies

Sun 30th - Show'n'Shine @ Shepparton Showgrounds. Trophies for S'n'S in the afternoon.

Mon 31st - Depart and head home from one awesome weekend!

So looks like 3 nights.....arriving 28th and departing 31st

would be different with cabins Steve cause you'd get a bunch of them that fit up to 6 people.....most rooms (other than the 1 family Room) will only accommodate 2 or 3.

As long as peeps know where the majority are staying, they are then responsible for the booking and money side of things :/

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
