Its good to see that there's an increase in events for people wishing to take their car down the quarter.

In the short time I've been on FF & FFAU it's always seemed like NSW has been the safe state with little interest in competing in drag racing compared to VIC or QLD etc. I would have thought with the interest in modifying cars that getting them trackside to see what they would do would be the next logical thing ???

I also think that the recent addition of having other NSW car clubs (I just read about the Skyline Club one just now) getting involved with Ford related clubs is top stuff too. The recent event with the E series guys Vs the R31 (?) club in VIC sounded like it was a stack of fun. I reckon we should get more of these days happening.

I hope that from here on we can see more of these events happening. This sort of involvement would make me more likely to join a club and get involved.

I dont see why we cant have a AFF meet at WSID as I am going to another forum site drag day in a couple of weeks 50 cars only cost $200 all day for 30+ passes more if you want.
Just need someone from here in the know to possibly organise it not my kettle of fish any takers.
