Marques In The Park 2006

[Terminal]

I haven't seen any interest or notices about this one yet. last year we had a good showing, i can't remember but i think there were about 8 or so skylines and 2 stageas. This year I propose we get more people to come, and make sure the organisers of the event know we're coming so as to get a good spot in the park. start listing your names down if you're interested or want to come.

just a question, for us to enter as a club under SAU, do we need to get permission or something for this to happen, or should we just say we're the ACT skylines club? i know some of us aren't full paying members and that makes events like this a bit harder. has anyone organised an event under SAU before in the ACT?

nah, you don't need permission... we're still a part of SAU even if you arent paid up to one of the official clubs i don't see any problems with entering as SAU-ACT.

i'd be in if my car was up to show standards.. but i might come and say gday. I might be there as part of the FPV entourage but i'll come hang out with you guys when i get sick of Fords and wanna see some real cars

Don't let that put you off. A lot of the cars there definetly aren't up to show standards. The front of mine is riddled with stonechips and I still put it in last year, and it got a good reaction too
