hehe maybe i can drag against the 1200 datto next year and aim for a 30sec quarter 🙂 I think there should be a comp on this forum for the lowest 1/4 from a stocker 😉

Great meeting up with all u guys and cruising both days and hanging out with kai and danny 😀

Hi

The tow guy really liked my hook.

Matt good on you for telling like it is. I guess a lot of people wanted to see if the drags were really going to happen, maybe more entries next year.

Notice to all intending to run, you probably have more chance of going into the brakets with slower car as you can be more consistant and you also have less chance of breakages.

Didn't see much of the show which was a bummer as I was a swapper for the day. Thats an experince all in itself. Not doing it again for a while as you miss to much. Was a long two days for me. We were told to get there on Sat to get good spots. We did and went to bed around 12:30 and then up at 5:00am on Sunday when a blody rooster started. Then got out of the van around 6:00. Still was good swapping and got rid of a few things but still lots left. Weird being there and having to look at photo's to see what went on.

Well my big story was arriving late because we caught the wrong train and had to change back (on a Sunday:jesus) Yes I should have driven up or hired a car....

It was great to see all those sweet VW's and check out what people had been doing to their rides....and catching up with a couple of people😎

Got to talk to JNR356...I see his beetle driving around this way with it's Thermador on and go crazy wondering who it is etc....now we've met up at the Nat's 🙂

Could not believe all the nice VW's out in the carpark...even the outer one....some seriously nice ones out there...Maybe next year they'll show them???

My story :
Flew up to Sydney on Saturday then joined the Nats on Sunday, early morning. I think it's worth flying up, very very nice show, biggest and the best, I think I'll have to bring my baby beetle along next year! It's sort of a must !! Saw lots and lots of cool Beetles, customize to original and also a couple of R32 Golf ?! << people are rich these days~! >> ... Didn't sleep saturday night, as I got to my friends place late around 3 AM and rather stay up till 8:00 and head down to Fairfield, was a tiring day but had lots of fun! Saw lots Aussie Veedub Member's Rides around << You guys >>!!!
Awsome Rides!!

The bad part : Waited almost an hour for a Taxi to arrive @ Show Ground..
