Yeah Croydon is over and now they have it at Knox

This is the third time it has been at Knox and it gets bigger and bigger every month..........

Watch the VIC/TAS Events section on the forums for things going on, click here to have a look:- http://www.fordforums.com.au/forumdisplay.php?f=36

But anyway the Knox event is the 2nd Tuesday of each month..............

120mph is under 200km/h

Talking He right
In fact 204.4 Km/H is 127.1 miles per hours.
Now that is hauling with a caravan on the back.
The only Caravans we see up here in QLD are Victorians with a top speed of 80 km/h. :the_finge

Tracey and i were saying the same thing, there was no atmosphere, there were some nice cars there, the only highlight of my night was when yourself, Dave and scottish xc (sorry forgot your name, Jamie i think) arrived.
People were just a bit stand off-ish.

That's the point i was trying to get across as well. I know its only early days but for gods sake how about putting some thing there for the people who bother to come along. All they have to do is ask there local Scouts to put on the BBQ and Bobs your auntie. One other thing where dose the money they take at the gate go to??

Yeah I loved it, was a good night, saw some mates there as well.

If anything its an excuse to take your car out and show it off, its good that at least some one has made an effort to have a Car Show each month out this side of town and they have actually done it not just talked about doing it.

Nice to see the P5 make an appearance on the photos! Thanx Dr Hemi. Lucky I washed it........ Sorry we didnt go for a longer drive BJ and Jamie but I dont think the **** of my car wouldn't have taken it! Proof that no matter how tall you are, you can squeeze into a coupe!

No matter where you stood at knox you could always see a bit off 'Pink' reflecting of something! Mark, if you polish it any more, it would be a menace on the road!!!!
