It doesn't have to be the same weekend as the fail and rotor show. We had it then last year was all. We also saw no law enforcement either.

That was the year before. It just makes sence to me. But it's a group decision. Maybe we can start a poll?

sounds good man,it also means I have to get some stuff done on it which cant be a bad thing.

i think we might need a poll for the date.A car club holding a cruise the same day as a car show just to get away from the show seems odd,even if the show will be full of evos and wrxs with 19's and airbrushed lightening bolts theres gonna be at least a couple of cool cars there and the 4&rotors weekend is always a good weekend to be on the roads in chch,it brings out allsorts of cars not just the stuff in the show

id choose the cruise over the show, paying $25 (probly $30 this year) to walk around to look at cars is fun, but $25 of petrol can be way more fun. and plus i should have the 140j going by then (if i dont someone should be round here to kick my arse into gear)
or $15 of petrol $10 for a car mag of your choice.

Yeah agreed. We know John like fully sicko cars with flash paint jobs and big wheels on bags! :badgrin:

I think it worked out last year. And like we said. Who wants to pay $30 to see those shit cars!

Perhaps the week before the show then?
I can't Stand the show tbh. I don't like crowds like that, and being jostled about by a bunch of punk kids with flat peak caps, puffy sneakers, and their jeans hanging down below their arseholes makes me want to start dishing out headbutts. (I get the same feeling at malls too)
That said a club sandwhich board with our web addy might be good. But it may lead to atracting to the aforementioned types too though.........
