2. AUXR8TICKFORD
3. BlueAU
4. XplodE
5. sbutler
6. shaynet
7. firefox
8. TS 50
9. loxxr6
10.Wampus
11.xcel
12.FalKeen
13.MYTE8
14.LG
15.Bluedriver
16.Bucknaked
17.AU-Steve
18.AU2SR
19. Slim Darky

THis how it ended up

13.MYTE8
14.LG
19. Slim Darky

I parked with the ACT club. I thought I posted it in this thread, but I must have forgotten too. My appologies to Dark Horse, MYTE8 and LG for not parking with you guys. You made the effort to make it to the show and display on behalf of AU Falcon, but in the end, there was just the 3 of you guys.

hmmm Yes the All Ford Day AUFALCON.COM mega meet.
What a nice big list it is.....

1. ------
2. AUXR8TICKFORD
3. BlueAU
4. XplodE
5. sbutler
6. shaynet
7. firefox
8. TS 50
9. loxxr6
10.Wampus
11.xcel
12.FalKeen
13.MYTE8
14.LG
15.Bluedriver
16.Bucknaked
17.AU-Steve
18.AU2SR
19. Slim Darky

Well I was getting a bit worried when at 9am the AUFALCON.COM display looked like this
Then it looked a bit better by 9:15 when 2 more cars came.

The final AUFALCON.COM display looked like this

I have one word to describe it.

Dissapointing

If guys want to display their cars with their clubs or with other people, thats fine, but don't put your name down here. As you can see our display was a little short on cars.

AUFALCON.COM has won the wooden spoon award for this event.

Some pics I took of a few of the other cars came be found here

I must admit I am disappointed too. I know I gave plenty of warning that I wasnt coming but there are quite a few names on the list that did not show that never said they wernt coming or went to another group.
Sorry guys, I wish I could have been there.

Just move those of us who never gave notice to the bottom of the list for events which involve limited spaces. I will happily serve my punishment.

Yes i was a bit surprised about the Turnout.

But to all the guys who made the effort, i hope you all had a great day/weekend.
Even with our small glitches, the show/cruise was an awsome success.

Dont forget that Bluedriver, and Falkeen where there aswell, they parked with the AWC display..

Ohh by the way Gorran, that first pic of your car is awsome.

I did mention previously that I wouldnt be taking my car but when i saw the turnout i wished I had, was a bit dissappointing. I saw Goran and Darkys cars but didnt see LG or his car unfortunately. Went for the cruise on Saturday night and met a couple of new faces and saw some ugly old ones again;)

Damm fellas ur not wrong about the dissapointing i was half expecting at least some kind of organizational (<-- is that a word?? : ) effort from the organizers of the event, not just , ye theirs some space over their type parking : , but it did seem like most were having a good time tho.

Hope Geelong and FPV are a little better executed :dr_Evil:

And ye it was a decent chat, nice to meet up with u

It was a shame that we didn't have more cars, I think we had the best location too.
A nice shady spot with flat rich green grass, no bare patches or ditches and far away from the dusty road.

It was good to meet up with Goran and LG. Both nice rides.

Yes, I'll just extend my sentiments. This is supposed to be aufalcon.com, not auIIIfalcon.com, nor austooge.com.

Bucky, Bluedriver and FalKeen, thanks for also turning up, I understand you guys also had commitments elsewhere.

Casper, au-steve, RspecAu and ExplodE, thanks for letting us know prior to the event. Hope to see you guys around next time.

Other than that, a bit of courtesy won't go astray, goes to show what kind of support we're getting for aufalcon.com from within it's own membership.

It's pretty pathetic.

Yeah it would have been cool to come down provided a mate hadn't decided on an engagement party for the same day....half my luck. I let him know as well that I booked the day for annual leave months beforehand....

Thanks James and Goran, was a nice spending time with you guys, and chatting about cars and general crap. The day was beautiful, the cars were amazing, how better to spend your sunday.

This was my 2nd event, and I am just getting to know you guys, but you'll soon get to know the un-shy, loud me. I left around 1:30, as i had to get back to melbourne to play a bball game.

I wanted to say g'day to Adam, but he left for a bit, and only saw his car as i was driving out. Oh well, next time.

The plan for my car over the next couple of months, is a bit more sound system upgrades, some little goodies, and hopefully a new diff, or some head work. Looks will stay as it is for now. But further down the track, I'm leaning towards a T1, T2 type kit.

I saw your car kerry, and it was looking real nice. Thanks for a nice day guys.
