Hi all,
     The 11th FE/FC Nationals are fast approaching at Phillip Island. The Vic club is pleased to announce that we have secured the use of the Phillip Island GP Circuit for the Show and Shine during the Nationals next year. The Show and Shine will be held on Easter Saturday on Pit Lane. We will have sole use of the circuit and entrants will be allowed to drive 2.5 parade laps. I believe this is a great coup for the FE-FC Nationals and the weekend will be capped off by a tour and drive around of Holden's Proving Ground at Lang Lang on Easter Monday. Till next time Tony Galea

Cool stuff.
Better throw the race rubber in the boot... ;D ;D
If Norm comes, can we allow him 3.5 laps  ???

Mark,

What do you mean, and waste the streamlining effect of those wheel spats on your wagon.

You just don't realise how much fun it is to throw a crossply shod FC into turn 1 at Phillip Island at about 50 MPH. You'd have to get the Brock up to about 130MPH to have the same amount of fun  ;D

See you there.

Craig.

For those of you counting the sleeps till the next nationals, this might help.

tests have proven that the final words before a fatal urban car crash are "OH ****"

in a rural car crash they are " Hold my stubby and watch this for skill!"

Tony,
         Do you know how many FE's are entered at present?  And how do think you's are going to go with getting 50 Fe's at Phillip Island?

Good Question Michael,
            Will have to check with Dina who is taking care of the bookings and entries. I know many have made their booking but are still to send in their entries.
  We are hoping to have 50 FE's which would be a record by a long shot.
  Cheers Tony.

Hi all,
As we are getting close to the 31st January deadline, entries are starting to arrive in droves.  We have received entries from ACT, SA, NSW, Qld, WA and of course, Victoria.  We're hoping to get entries from Tasmania too, so if you're from our Southernmose State, this will be a great opportunity to take part in a Nationals which is close by because they won't be held in this State again for another 10 years!
So come on you Tasmanians, spread the word and help make this a truly "National" event!
Cheers,
Tony Galea.

Hi Tony.
Busting my arse to get there, but it won't be in a car most likely. An FC at any rate. I am hoping to get it all cool here at my bakery & get over for the event, but as a non-car entrant, participant.
Not sure if there are any other Tasmanians who will make it. Damn shame, as the club here had some good cars, but I doubt anyone that was in the club will make it. They just don't frequent this site very often, as you can see by the amount of posts in the Tas Club section (5 posts & 7 replies I think ::) ::)).

I may even fly up & pick my mate Sarge up for the trip down & we can practice some of our moves for the Grand Event! ;D

Anyway, hoping to catch up with you all & putting some faces to the names.

Sorry to hear you won't have your car at the Nats.
Will be good to catch up with you again though.
Perhaps the Vic guys have a spare FE/FC that you could borrow and enter........anyone?  ;D
