IDEA: 2005 Opel Australia National Meeting.

[Anonymous]

I got this idea due to getting a call from the Isuzu Car Club President, He asked If I could Organise the Isuzu Driving Mexicans for a National Meeting This Year.
So I though Phuck it, Lets Try get a Opel Australia/CorsaSport/Yadda Yadda National Meeting On the Cards.
I was Thinking,Show n Shine with Trophies(I know Gunna Cost) For Each Catergory E.G: Best Original Corsa, Best Modified Corsa. Yadda Yadda, Right thru all models that Attend.
Depending on where its held, We could get driving Events(Non Hardcore) like a Motorkhana or Spear a Spud.
And on the Last Night have a Dinner Presentation of Trophies.
If it held on a Long Weekend, It could be a Great National Put a Name to face Meeting.

OPINIONS:
Feel free to shit Can my Dream.
Post where ya think it should be Held.(I was thinking Canberra or Adelaide)
Other ideas
GO MENTAL.

I like the idea, I have to say. Would it be fair to say that most of the people on this board are in Sydney or Melbourne? If that's the case then Canberra would have to be a better choice of location than Adelaide as far as getting people to turn up goes.

I agree , canberra would be a good spot.
And i like the idea , would be a organising monster , but im sure well worth it.
Id be keen to meet the members from interstate and check out the cars in the flesh !

Glad to see the Idea hasn't been shot down in Flames.
I know its going to be a Hard Task to organise. It won't happen overnight but it will happen.
The last Isuzu Nats we didn't have Driving Events. Only a Show N Shine., But we did manage Some Japanese Isuzu Owners to come over and It was a Great weekend held 2 Rydges Resort in Canberra. The was approx 40 People and around 30 Cars.
Things I can up with so far @ Work:
Show N Shine: Entrants vote on whom wins, No Judges. Its People Choice.
Parts Trading This will happen anyway, As a Lunch Time BBQ thing people bring Parts and Trade Them.
Cruise Go for a Cruise some where on Saturday Night, Be good to see all the States together and Cruise.
Photography Session Everyone puts there Alone, So it can be Photographed by other entrants and Attendees.

If ya have anyother ideas Bring them.

i like this idea

maybe we could have it during the xmas period, or over easter so the most amount of people can come. we don't want to have it when people have work commitments.

Easter Next Year Sounds Good. Christmas is too close to Summernats and most People go away then.

If we wait till after June 2005, I might be there for real - that is I am standing for the senate as representing the Veterans of Australia.
www.esvp.asn.au will show you where I am coming from.
However as this is not a political forum, I shall content myself as saying I would support a Canberra Rally.
