Yep, thanks to everyone for making a very enjoyable day! It was obviously very well organized by AFF and the facilities provided no doubt kept us out of trouble from the heat!

I didn't grab too many pics but what I did get I'll put up in the next few days.

And btw, you can book me down already for next year!

Massive thanks to James XPcoupe with all his help this weekend - we drove around like mad men prepping for the show on Saturday

He mapped out the parking & got the cars parked as well as used his mad skills printing maps & the voting forms ;)

Thanks to everyone who attended - great commitment and we were impressed with your parking skills.

We still have 24 sausages left and stax of drinks :(

Thanks to Casey for towing, unloading, parking & reloading ProEF

Thanks to Bobson for bringing the gas & bbq & marques

I had a great time - hope you all did as well

Everyone was very friendly

Thanks to those who helped pack up as well
And I havent forgot the cool kids who brought eskys and ice
James, Casey, Gav, Amanda & Swanny

This is just a brief post - I am stuffed......

Had a good day, it was sooo hot, didnt venture out far from our camp, met some great people, i was lucky enough to take out best XR/XT again this year.
Had a look through the AFF display, well done to all involved and all who work to set it up.
Maybe next year it would be good to have my car with you guys if thats ok.
Congadulations to the other award winners, the quality of cars there was excellent.

Cheers James

Hmmm I don't think my camera liked the bright hot sun
Pretty sure the Entrant Sticker was not that colour
So that cans that idea of adding my photos as they will be all wrong

So I will wait for the experts with their pro-cameras to post

It was good to catch up with a lot of you guys I liked watching peoples facial expressions when they were checking out the Fairmont, it was entertaining to say the least.

I had fun sharing information with a lot of people, I think swannie's brain must hurt after all the questions I was asking him about everything.

I think we were all interested in info about his pub too next time we're down in Warnambool! *cough* facebook link *cough*
