From Letsgocruisin.com.au


07/12/2008 URAIDLA HOTROD & CLASSIC PICNIC, presented by Southern State Street Rodders, morning cruise leaves Morphettville Junction, Anzac Highway, Camden Park, 9.00am, free raffle for cruise entrants, gate open at Uraidla Oval at 10.00am, traders, lowbrow art and memorabilia displays, Father Christmas & activities for kids, 2 live bands, dance floor, food and more, entry open to hot rods, customs, pre '67 classic and American cars and custom bikes, pre-entry in by Nov 14th for free raffle and t-shirt at a reduced price, huge model hot rod and model car expo on site, for more information Phone Ron (08) 8386 1430 or 0408 818 634 or email hotrodparty@comstech.com

I'm gonna put something in it; I'm being encouraged by some mates to take the Wasp but it's a long way and as many of you know, it's a dicey old bastard to drive.

I may cave and take the rat Bellett which I'm sure will stir interest with it's new artwork...

My mates (KE10 corolla and Desoto) will be leaving Adelaide about 8am and moving ahead of the Cruise to get a good spot at the end; I'm happy with that!

More details to come when I get the chance.

Cheers,

Dave

Apparently there aren't any forms available on the Net so if you're in SA and you want to enter, you have to call or email the details above and they will snail mail a form to you!

Cheers,

Dave

I have been told there's no need to actually enter this event; just rock up on the day.

Is there anyone with a pre-1970 car that is going to rock up? Otherwise I'll just rock up by myself!

Actually, if nobody else is going I'll just skip it. I have been told it's one of the better classic events on our calender though. :(

Actually I've bailed on this event totally.

Front brakes are probably too dicey for the Adelaide Hills anyway...

Just for the record...

I ended up going to this event to spectate only, but such is the casualness of the event, $5.00 got us in for a couple of hours AND we parked on the grass! Unlike some events that are crushed under the pain of liability insurance, there were no rules in relation to not leaving before 4pm and in fact the participants openly cruised around the oval!

2lDOHC came in his Bellett as well (I was in the ratBellett) but we forgot to take any photos! I got some photos of some other cars but not the Belletts. I should post some as time permits.

Cheers,

Dave

I took a few pics of this event but haven't gleaned them off the camera yet.

Plus I forgot to take a photo of my car or Ross's car there!

Here are some on the OzRodders forum

I found a mate of mine did take a couple of pics of the Belletts as we were rollin' out of the picnic!

By the way, that green rod in the background was running a BMW M3 motor (or M5, I can't remember)!!!!
