Is anyone from NZ attending NZFMR at Hampton Downs this weekend
www.NZFMR.co.nz

Kick ass line up with a heap of Formula 5000's along with multiple F1 Cars from various generations going to be there

Im flying up from Christchurch especially for it. If you have the weekend free I highly recommend it! Be cool to meet some of the north island VR4 guys there..

How long are you up here for Adam? I've never been so would be nice to go, and meeting up with more people from the club would be good.

Ben, Justin and I will be in Tauranga on Saturday finishing taking parts off the our parts car and swapping wheels etc. Maybe we could come up Sunday though? We want to go to Auckland for the pickaparts soon anyway haha.

Sweet I'll see what I'm doing Sunday it looks like nothing at this stage, I'll be more keen if I can con Justin into coming. Ben is working Sunday and think we are all wanting to get this car ready for scrap this Saturday.

Yeah that was me, I went crazy adding people from here who I had mutual friends with lol. Sweet, I hope I can somehow take my FL vr4 up there, Ben has it in Tauranga so I don't get in trouble for buying it lol.

Its unlikely that I'll make it to the event.
Depending on what your plans are, I live probably an hour south of Hampton Downs so there is a chance to catch up there.

If your weight allowance was sufficient and I got my backside into gear, you could potentially take some parts home with you ;)

Carry on only unfortunatly..

Was about to say they never weight carry on bags, you'd be fine as long as it didnt look massively packed.

Then I realised that you'll be flying into a main city, so full security crap lol
