That was at Grenfell, but this Sunday is Lithgow, but it looks like it could rain all weekend anyway

Guys, the showground is under 4 inches of water in the good spots today, it might stop raining, but it's going to be a massive bog hole come Sunday so be prepared with the cleaning gear.

Was just talking to the Vice President of AHD and he will be out there on Saturday afternoon so I'll post an update on ground conditions when he calls me.

Suggested to him that they should move it to Eastern Creek. Lots of paved areas and would fit the cars easily.

Guys, I work 500m away, right across the road. I can tell you now wet would be an understatement. It's going to be an issue for anyone who wants to park outside too because it's a washout along the road too.

were bringing two cars down with us not looking forward to the mud but hell its better than dust, will be brining my boots, saturday hopefully will be fine enough for ground to dry up a little ready for sunday late entries will be driving into a mush but early cars will be sweet

Lets hope they control traffic a bit better and stop so many folk leaving beofre 3, its hard to get around to 800 cars before that time, and once presentation starts cars bugger off

Lets hope its another top day though will see you all there

Yes Eastern Creek is the way to go, with better traffic access, no mud to worry about. Trade stands could use the bit garages.

Seems to work OK for the Ford guys.

My gut feel about eastern creek is that it would be much more expensive than the current location!!
I'm sure that will be a big consideration of the organizers!
