Default SHOW AND SHINE at AFF Drag Nats

For your information:



Re: 2012 AFF Drag Nationals & Show N Shine @ HPR 8th & 9th Of June

Not much interest in the Show and Shine yet but those that attended last year will remember how fantastic the prizes were. We have one prize here at home (was the Auto Legends prize which we will use for the Show and Shine) and I will speak with Russell about some cash prizes as they are worth more than anything with Petrol becoming so expensive.

It is still some time away but if spectators want to enter (free - just need to pay Spectator entry at the gate) you get to have your car inside, chance of winning a great prize and there will be plenty. This is a show where cars will not be penalised for mods - in fact we embrace this.

Spread the word amongst the Clubs and your friends and I will organise the prizes and a couple of really good fair judges.

If you enter the Show and Shine you CANNOT be Racing! The car must sit in the Show Area for the day. I anticipate that we will have the prize giving for the Show and Shine mid afternoon (will confirm exact details closer to the event) and cars must be left in place until this time.

I will start a new thread for the Show and Shine once we get a bit of interest.

Classes the same as last year with one extra class for Encouragement. You have 6 chances of taking home a prize:

JUDGES CHOICE 1ST
JUDGES CHOICE 2ND
JUDGES CHOICE 3RD

BEST MODDED CAR
BEST MODDED UTE
ENCOURAGEMENT AWARD

Cheers
Gaela

Just a final heads up for the Show and Shine at the Drags - $900 in prize money and only 14competitors at this stage. No problem for us but it's a lot of money and odds in the favour of those that turn up. Well worth an entry.

Default Re: SHOW AND SHINE at AFF Drag Nats

Here you go:

A FEW POINTS FOR THE SHOW AND SHINE! have taken these from last years event as it will be the same format:

*there is no charge for displaying your car in the Show N Shine other than you paying your entry fee as a spectator for Heathcote at the gate (but there is no additional charge to enter the display)

*10.30am is the deadline to arrive but frankly, you need to be there by 9.30 so you can groom your cars before they are judged.

*I will be at the gate from 8.20am until about 9.40am to get you all in without dramas at the gate - they will be unaware who is racing and who is showing so PLEASE, approach me and tell me who you are ie - your username & I will have the list in my hand. You must enter the event here on the AFF before the day with your name and car plus username so I can see you at the gate and get you in. They will be charging all other cars (except ones on my list) Racing entry fees.

*Take your car to the Show and Shine directly and Russell (russellw) will be there to make sure all the cars are parked up quickly and orderly. If you want to be next to someone you will need to arrive together - there will be no mucking around saving spots etc - space is at a premium and this makes it to damn hard so please be co-operative and helpful.

*Presentation will be straight after the Drivers Briefing - please make yourselves available so we are not running around looking for you.

*Cars cannot leave before 3pm.

*You are welcome to leave cars in place and stay and watch the racing as long as you wish, as the drags get quite exciting later on.


Hope this answers any questions. I expect the numbers to rise as we get closer to the event when people firm up dates. The prize money is substantial and will be given out no matter how many entries there are. Your cars are also safely parked inside the compound so you can attend in your pride and joy rather than a daily.

Cheers
Gaela
