Yamba 2008 Nationals (can never have enough pics...?)

Post by parisian62 »

Here’s some pics from my camera…I’ve tried to pic alternatives so I’m not repeating Steve…

It was a top Nationals and congratulations to the QLD Club. Some of the highlights for me were…

Meeting up with Craig, Karsten, Mez, Terry, Richard, Rob, Malcolm, Dave, Sunny Tim, Sunny Ben, Sunny Mick, Theo none of whom I have ever met. (I'm sure I've missed someone :oops: )
Meeting up with others who I only see once a year at the Nats...
Craig taking me for a spin in his EK sedan with triples...
Observation run was a hoot...thanks Theo...
All the families that were there and how the kids all had a great time...
Crupi wagons...
Luggage compartment area of Rosco's sedan...
Malcolm's work of art...

on the road to Yamba via the Big Banana at Coffs…my FB, Trev and Richard.

Great pics Stewart 8)
I too love the longboard shots and the early morning lines at Cresent Head.
To me the Nationals is all about the road trip, the awesome cars, and chatting with mates with like minded interests,
And these pics bring back memories of a great weekend.

I can't wait until this years Nationals :D

BTW I think this will be the first year for me not camped next door to Terry :wink:
