Default Summernats 22 --- 1-4 Jan 2009

So,

Whos's going?
Where are you staying?
Are you entering a car?
What events are you planning?
Tell us about your plans for the week/weekend

Me:
At this stage, depends if i can afford a front end spray, the tub to be fitted out and engine bay neatened up, I will enter with proutes, I have many dollars to spend before its upto standard, and extra effort needs to be put in considering that it's a 6.
Staying at carotel, camping again, heading up either very very early new years day, 2am ish (after new years celebrations with mates) or head up new years eve.
Cant wait to finally meet some of the oldies on here

and one last question, those who have got their entry already, does that include season pass arm band? if so, what color is it?

Cheers.
Jase.

PS.
Please do not turn this into a "i dont go to summernats because its too wild" thread

I hope to attend the entire event, but I see no point in attending onSunday if I can't get an advantage to take photos, so if I make it to media I'll be cutting loose and hopefully breaking my record from 2008 and the keeper rate (5000 in 7000). With much better gear, better education and experience behind me I'm confident that Street Machine and DBC management will at least consider my application.

I'll be there shooting either way, not entering or nothing. I hope to see many new trends and vehicles, it's the most exciting thing about the nats, I love the variety in motorsports and the latest Street Machine mag has some awesome cars in it

I'll be wearing my shirt too so if anybody see's me, give a yell Summernats is the best event of the year, and amazingly it's the only decent local event with burnouts!

i dunno if im going to bother entering this year.if not ill go down with pungent. im sick of the cops ruining my summernats experience each year as i like to drive my car.cant go anywhere outside of summernats with it without clenching my ass tight waiting to be reamed by the cops.

its a shame because they have spolied what was a great thing.my first nats i drove everywhere no hassles and had a ball.

I'm heading up on new years day, staying at the Carotel with a group of Mates. I have entered the SS and I got entrant # 60...... and no, that did not include season pass arm band.

You'll have to start working harder on your car Moot. No excuses mate
Would be an awsome effort to make top 60, good luck with it.

I had a ball last year, and every other year before that too. But this time around I wont be going, for a few different reasons.

I lake to have a year off now and then, I'll come back in a few years.
