Marques In The Park 2007 November 25th

[Glenieboy]

This sounds good. I should be able make this,so count me in.

Not all cars leave for the cruise at the same time. You basically leave as you register for the day, so there's a steady flow of cars, not one massive swarm.

Last time it was us and the MX-5 club plus a couple of Corvettes all the way from the lake to Belco.

ah ok, was thinking it would be more of an idle than a cruise with 1000 cars all trying to get from one point to another at the same time, not to mention the inevitable crashes and douchbaggery

glenieboy is car number 25 aswell

I shall aim to have my car fixed up and finished by this date.

Good to see the interest. Have a nice document on skyline history which I'll bring along, done by a sauer.

Anymore info on the money still needed for the banner?

I might see if I can bring along the Federal Tyres tent so that we can all sit in the shade underneath it while still advertising quality tyres... Heheheh

[Terminal]

I'm leaving town this weekend, but I'll try my hardest to return to Canberra on that weekend for Marques. leave me a spot, my wagon is bigger than your skylines

[Bullet32]

Why would we want a Volvo in our display Leshy?

You're just jealous that I can fit 30 cartons of beer in my car,

I will have a talk again with the organisers to see if we can get a pre arranged spot, if 26 or 27 people do show up. Apart from that does anyone else have any ideas on a club display, apart from the skyline history print outs that is. Nothing too organised I suppose.

Two people get there early to rope of the section we want, bring marking tape etc (make sure we can hang the flag on something)

One person to bring a tent (Federal one?)

Everyone brings fold up chairs to sit in.

Shell brings the SAU flag and something to hang it with.

The skyline history printouts are excellent ideas

I don't know how many people saw my quick printout I did up for my car at the wheels show, but it had some information on the car and some pics, it drew some interest as believe it or not not everyone knows what a skyline is let alone a GTR.

Club event done... Now we just need a club.

perhaps have the tent and banner on location early to setup and claim our spot? i'd be happy to help do that....

Someone tell Jon how big my BBQ is... welcome to use it, but can only take it if I get a volunteer with a ute and help lift it on and off. Its stainless steel with verrreee thickand heavy SS plates.

honesty box would work too.

If we have to have PL anyway, then perhaps we could apply to sell food on the day.
