Schweet. :good:

Marc, there is presumably a 'cannot leave before' time, due to the show? It hopefully won't affect any competitors, but do you know if there is such a rule?

Looking forward to seeing you all and listening to more of what Vic has to offer.

Also, what time will this finish approximately? I might sneak on for a game at Royal Melbourne if I have time..

ryzaa - with the early start time, we would *guess* the SQ judging will finish around 2:30-3:00 (depending how many cars are entered).

Thanks Spyne, I might call up the golf course and see if I can get in for a quick 9 holes late evening. May aswell get out there while I am up there..

But that is only if everyone decides to leave and not let me listen to their cars late into the evening...

Which brings me to another thing, how happy are people at these events to share the sq with everyone?

VERY. Some of the cars worth listening to;
shiny_car (richard, black alfa), Frankston Car Audio (mark f, white civic), frogslapper (brian f, maroon commodore), fury (danny, navy bora), pulse-r (simon, silver pulsar), myself (adam, grey focus), nemesis5000 (brian s, navy commodore), sierra (alan, red falcon), jay_318 (jay, champagne? bmw)of course there are plenty others too.

from the list above there's a few judges - we can be a bit harder to track down as we're in and out of cars all day, but we're all more than willing to let people have a listen.

You're more than welcome to listen to the FCA Civic, ryzaa..
Just don't expect to be told all our SQ secrets :P (well not all at once, anyway!)
Same goes for anyone else that is interested in hearing our TEAM FCA cars.. you only need to ask :)

Spyne's list includes some National and State winning cars, so it is definitely worth following..

I got the Monday and Tuesday off work... Monday will be recovery from Rainbow Serpent...

Tuesday will be pretty much my whole audio Install... lol...

.... look at my empty boot and piles of mdf in my garage... I'm going to have to go backyard blitz on this one!

I will none the less compete whether my car is 100% complete or not... as a wise man said in another thread... points picked up now can help later down the track :), Purely no reason not to compete!

See you guys there! and I want some SQ Demo's... Mark I'm looking in your direction :P

Yeah, would have been doing 40-50km/hr when I lost traction in the wet, over compensated and went into the side of a parked car...

Looked a lot worse than it was...Front bar torn off and bonnet buckled, windscreen cracked. Airbags went off...pretty damn scary as it was my first ever car accident in 14/15 yrs of driving...Other than a cut on my left wrist and some bruising, I'm alright but was pretty shook up by it all.

On the bright side...I had some work that needed to be done to the front end anyway and would have cost me a lot more than just the $500 excess I have to pay now...
