The Trick club committe are aware of this thred and would be interested in participating in the event. From my own personal experience in assisting with car shows, I would recommend arranging a location and a date first before anything else. I am sure once you have done this, people from a lot of the local clubs will make the effort to participate.

When you are picking a date, try to make sure that there are no other car events that could clash. Try looking at the willowbank websites, boost cruising (a lot of toowoomba cars head to events in Brissy and the coasts regularly) and other car clubs websites etc etc.

Keep positive and I am sure that the event will go well !!

I sure wouldn't mind an excuse to show the FTO off after the new paint and front bar in January. :D

If you can make it work, it should be good. Once the date is sorted, I'll try to get some people interested from Brisbane and the coast.

Bugger, I can't get the paint done until the 27th of January. I'll still come down for a look, though.

If you're looking to do it that soon, you need to sort out the location within the next few days (and clear it with the people who own that property if you're looking at the Harvey Norman carpark or similar), and give a concrete date, time and location to TRICK and other clubs you'd like to have involved.

The people whose cars you'd like to see there DO have families and kids and jobs and other committments, and if you leave it until a week before to confirm details you'll be left sorely disappointed with the number of attendees.

Best of luck with it though :wink:

For council owned properties such as Chalk Drive, the TRC would be the ones to call. GOod luck with getting them to do anything that doesn't involve them getting a pay rise though.

Thankyou for the interest shown so far and i hope this goes to plan. If anyone has any other ideas that could help this run a bit smoother, could you please let me know as this is the first time ive organised a event.

Cheers, Winfield


You need to have a bikini competition or something. That will get people there fo sho. Summer is a great time for wet t-shirt comps....

How is anyone supposed to know about this if all you've done is change the title and first post?

Also, it helps if you provide a date. No where in the thread so far has one been decided. If you were still going with this weekend, it helps to give some notice - especially if you're planning on changing the venue from downtown Toowoomba to Surfers Paradise.

Have you asked Heidi if she minds a bunch of young guys in cars taking up space in her carpark on the morning in question?

stop-it!......."Not a chance!!"..........that's if you can find her!!

You'll get the same answer from Mark too. You're better off using a public place.

Here's a solution:

Meet at McDonalds @ 8am and everyone have brekky there. I'm sure the owners would have no objections to you all parking there if you are all paying customers...
