Easter 2013 - Toowoomba

Easter 2013 - Toowoomba

Postby Ric » Fri Apr 20, 2012 9:07 am

The next MG Car Club National Meeting is going to be in Toowoomba over Easter 2013.
I'm just back from a very succesful one in Hobart this year. See: viewtopic.php?f=62&t=12906
(I won my class in the lap Sprint, and also in the Motorkhana this year :D)

I'm pretty sure I'll be going to Toowoomba, bring the Liberty and my MGA.
The only dates locked in so far are:
A "Concours d'Elegance" in the Heller Street Park on Easter Saturday,
and sprint laps at Morgan Park Raceway on Easter Sunday.
There will probably be a motorkhana somewhere on the Monday as well.

So, keep it in mind. I'd like to meet a few club members there if I can. :D

Sounds like a good excuse for a Brisbane/Toowoomba/GC meet. The timing could be a challenge with families/spouses though.

I'd be up for this.

Toowoomba is only 3.5 hours from me.

So this will be the 7th/ 8th of April

I should be off on this date but will have to double check, depends when I'm going to targa Tasmania.

If I've got the time off I'll be there.

Will arrive on Thursday afternoon, and head off Tuesday morning. i.e. Mar-28 to Apr-2

Yep. Something like this, to do it over 3 days. http://goo.gl/maps/qdsq

Sorry, I didn't notice the last paragraph back when you posted it.
Thanks for the offer, but I'll be with my wife, and probably a dozen other members as well, so we'll probably bulk book a motel somewhere. :)

It's nearly Easter :D

We're going to be stopping in West Wyalong next Tuesday night, and Narrabri on Wednesday. Sorry, no stop in Moree :)
That's about 18 hours of towing a car trailer, spread over three days. My wife won't tow the trailer, so I'll be doing it in two 3 hour driving stints each day. Route

Will be in Tawoomba from Thursday night till Tuesday morning, although we have functions Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon nights already.
