Skyline Nationals 2010

[Matty 31]

Okay guys and girls, its Adelaide's turn. After 2 stunning efforts by Cazz (GTS145) and the committee from Classic Skylines Australia for organising 2 awesome Skyline Nationals in 06 and 08, its time for it to hit the road, and its landing here in adelaide

At this stage it will retain the standard format (until we start working thru things)

Sign in day Friday

Track Day Saturday

Show and Shine Sunday

Going to try and get Wrigley Reserve at Glenelg for the show and shine (this is to be checked on etc) and Mallala for the track day (again, pending on checking it out)

At this point we're looking at the end of july (as thats the traditional time and it tees in with the 7th Skyline Day celebrations all us 31 peeps do) but if theres ideas for a better time of the year we're all ears

Tune into this thread for updates, as we also want volunteers to be on the organising committee. Before volunteering for the committee, make sure you think about the time committment this will take too

dont have it too close to Autosalon tho Matty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Matty 31]

noted cara

any idea on their 2010 calendar? even if its a couple of weeks beforehand it wouldnt be too bad

[MissR34]

nfi.

dont even know this years dates yet....................

but yeah 2-3 week difference would be preferred espcially if something happens at the nationals

[shy_s6]

haha no worries bout the autosalon thing wont be here in 2010 as its fair dead

[MissR34]

the magazine part might be dead but i think the show series of it will still go on?

wouldnt it be better to have the show and shine on the saturday and the track day on the sunday?

Definently the track day before the show and shine. That way you know which cars are worth checking out and which ones are just poser mobiles.

yeah but if i want to take my car out on the track.........and something happens that means she will be f****d for the show and shine...........

but in the end whatever...........

[Matty 31]

we're still working on the finer details. last year's nationals (due to a mix up by winton raceway) we had to go to the saturday instead, and i feel that worked well in some respects (especially for those travelling from interstate)

but in some respects i can see what you guys mean, track day sunday would work a treat too

If it's July your chances of rain will be fairly high. You may want to look at an indoor venue...

PM me if you want some advice regarding venues, or a contact at Holdfast Council for Wigley.
