Ok, it's about time everyone got in on this. The full members have had the run down for a while now and know what's going on but nothing is in stone for me to totally confirm other than we have definitely booked the location (and a few other major parts are about to click into place).
So the story so far goes like this:
If any of you frequent Customfighters, OSS, Streetfighter-MCC or SFOC you may already have seen this. I'll explain to the rest of you why soon:
So - It's Casino Airfield NSW:
Why?:
1. The Gladstone boys and North QLD mob have never had the chance to attend before due to shear distance.
2. The town has everything in one small area including a runway that we have all to ourselves.
3. It's close enough for me to take full control of organising the event so I can keep you up to date with all the details.
4. If Phill made it from Perth without a problem to Dubbo I don't think the location is really an issue now do you??
So far the plan is to run the full weekend with events all the way through. I have to confirm all that we are going to do as and when they are confirmed but let's just say this one should be massive.
I've announced it now so that you can make your plans and make sure the time is free and holidays are booked.
Costs? We plan on camping at the site and throwing in as much as we can for the ticket price. It's not confirmed yet but looking to be around $120 with as many runs on the 1/4 mile as you can fit in. There's extras as well if your keen. ...like stunt practise and tuition with the Trix in the Sticks mob, but as I say, this is just the seed. I'll update as and when I get more details.
We can confirm we have organised professional tyre fitters bringing burnout tyres for your bike and burn out photos and comps, Trix in the Stix Stunt guys doing their practise sessions with availability for anyone to join in if they really want to practice or get some tips, 1/4 mile drag strip for best time awards in categories and some competition bikes to show us how it's done, show and shine, possiby trade stands, full camping, live bands at the local, advice on great road rides for groups to go out plus a few more things that aren't confirmed yet - plus it's all in a beautiful beachside town to chill if you really want (or need to throw up or pass out).
Ok, now to why you'll have seen this at Customfighters, OSS, Streetfighter-MCC and SFOC - I'm trying to get them to run the AFR parallel in the states and the UK and so far they are both interested. Also Frank and the Irish boys are getting something together. The plan is to make it an international event - one day of the year where all the Streetfighter clubs/forums/groups get together and just have an awesome time and then report on how it went so that we can all see. A true 'fighter world unity!
So get yourself pumped up, ready and geared and spread the word. This is going to be the biggest yet.
Cheers guys.
