damn no wang event?

[Marc ♫]

Hey marsh, all for doing that event again, but don't know any details.
If you do, can you let me know please?

[HEKYEH]

Thanks for putting up the calendar there

I see that Round 4 is March 28th and is yet to be confirmed, but it's only 1 week after Round 3.

Between Round 6 and 7 there is then about a 2 month break.

Any reason for this? Not that I mind...just thought it was interesting...that's all

[marsh]

i will find out the details for ya mate!

Note: Round 3 is MEASQ

Round 4 is DB Drag (NOT MEASQ)

[HEKYEH]

Ah huh! Well that explains that part then...

[Damo95]

The 2 month break coincides with winter i'd say...

I don't think we'd wanna be competing in the rain?

[HEKYEH]

Yeah, that's what I thought about it being winter and being cold, rather than any rain...

[Tiger]

Hang on a sec.... there's one word that's coming to mind... I'll just grab my dictionary.. hold that thought....

(reads)......

ahuh!

SOFT!!!!!

Tiger...

you just shush.. you havent been to a wet comp yet so you dont know how much of a PITA it is...
have you ever worked on your car while it's been raining?

[Tiger]

I've worked on the car while it's raining. I will say fun and games is the minimum... but YOUR WEAKNESSS STILL SICKENS ME!!!

If it's an SQ comp, people are under covers and judges are sitting incar with windows up and doors closed.... so uhm, what's the point about the weather affecting the comp? THE SHOW MUST GO ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!

Don't mind me.. it's a funny monday for me, I'm babysitting the little one and he's decided to call my beanbag HIS! Like hell it is!

Anyway... back on subject. It's very interesting that we are now doing Saturday night comps... VERY good indeed!

u weren't at the Ballarat event 18months ago, Tiger - i think a few people are still scarred from how cold that event was...
we also get better turn-outs, and it makes for a better social/spectator event if the weather is warmer, hence the move to try and get more events during the warmer months with a break over the middle of winter - allows competitors a break to try new equipment/installs before finals

[Tiger]

Was it THAT bad? yikes! Fair enough.

Cool. Well, the new layout definitely seems invitation friendly Maybe enough to pursuade the (cough) tigress (cough) to come along with me one event

[Fury♫]

The winter "break" allows competitors to make changes/upgrades to their systems.
We will most likely have a test n tune (and no doubt social meets) during this time.
