In the event that we did win the prize money (amount to be announced) would be divided up amougst the entrants.I'm ideally looking for cars that are modified both mechanically and visually.I will also talk to Performance Ford Magazine about using one of our monthly FordXR6Turbo.com articles (first issue out now!) to cover this event.What does everyone think?←Any more thoughts on entering as a club Adam? Entries after the end of this month are $50 more so if we are going to do somthing we need to organise it now as you need to tell them on the entry form if you are part of a club display.

So it's really up to you guys...To have a good chance of winning we would need at least 20 cars I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I've always wanted to visit Coober Pedy and stay in an underground house.Here's what comes to mind as a possible route:Day 1 - Melbourne to AdelaideDay 2 - Adelaide to Coober PedyDay 3 - Coober Pedy to Ayres Rock (stay at resort on site)Day 4 - Rest Day to visit the Rock, gorges, etc in the area.Day 5 - Ayres Rock to Coober PedyDay 6 - Coober Pedy to AdelaideDay 7 - Adelaide to MelbourneMay investigate an alternative route back to Melbourne so that we don't have to retrace our steps. I've also wanted to visit the Munga National Park near Mildura.Be nice to have to have a photo opp with a line of Ts with the Rock in the background Timing would be probably May or June next year during the cooler months.I'd prefer to make it shorter if I could - think 7 days is a bit too long, but not sure how to shorten it without creating excessively long driving days - they look pretty long as it is.Any thoughts on this, guys?
