Hey CraigR! Sure would be a good time to head back to NZ - Kumeu is on the following weekend.... and then Muscle Car Madness. And you haven't seen anything like the Dust Up - Kiwi style! Noddy

Yep - a shit load of interest for Dust Up 10 and things are looking good. Here's the Aussie band we are bringing over.... http://www.wildturkeymusic.com/home.cfm Is Bundy Snr going to bring the vintage Midget Greg?
This was a great event, the weather really turned it on for us. A fun day, unfortunately with a bit of damage to a few cars including mine, but a fantastic day out at the dirt track with with million dollar views!
