As stated by others the dickhead element is too high for me too.

I'll be at the Kustom Nationals at Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, hopefuly the first big outing for the EK! Plus its far better value for money...

the people complaining about the dick heads at summernats even if they are going to something else are only going for a day anyway.

Ratbox its not by choice I'm going for one day, I would love to go for the whole event but try finding accomadation this time of year at Phillip Island. The only place we found was going to cost $1300 for 5 people and 4 kids for 3 nights!!!

I prefer to enter and support the whole event not one day...

Most people think Johns Picnic is a one day event, but its 3..

I have been to the Summernats a few times and the first 5 Spring Car nats in Shepparton all of which have been ruined by the dickhead factor.
My FC was scratched full length of the roof at Shep, just trying to get back to the motel for the night. Then there is the random roadworthy checks which make it imposible to cruise the streets. I vowed never to attend anything with that many idiots attending ever again.
Its a shame the hangers on take the fun out of it for the enthusiasts.
I know Chic is trying to make it more for the car enthusiasts than the hangers on but he isn't there yet...
