Great idea Paul, things have been a bit quiet since Christmas.
I don't know of any car related events coming up southwards but we can just make our own cruise down on a Saturday and back on Sunday.

Hi Paul;
Mate Robyn and I would be interested but I'm hoping you are going to wait until Feb because I'm on a job in Sydney, we really enjoyed Dongara so I'm hoping we can make it, maybe a good run for the memorial trophy.

Hi Paul,
if you were thinking of staying in Bunbury, may I suggest a trip out to the Dardanup Heritage Park. Only 15 minutes from Bunbury, a collection of working old farm and timber industry machinery. Haven't been there myself but I believe it's pretty good.

We went there last year - it is well worth looking through , especially if you like old International tractors - there must be 100 of them !!!!

Hi All,

If you're still keen for a cruise south, the Margaret River Speedway is on next weekend - Feb 25th. The modified sedans & production sedans are the main feature event. The details are on their facebook web page.
It starts at about 5pm and you can usually get parking trackside if you get there early enough. The country speedway is usually a pretty good night.

You're all more than welcome to have a barby and a beer at my place before hand and there is plenty of room for anyone wanting to throw a tent / swag or other camping accom.

I'm only an hour south of bunbury (maybe a bit longer in a grey) so you could still get to the tractors on the way there / home on Saturday / Sunday.

Just a thought, if you're not keen I'd still like to catch up with you guy's at the tractor museum as it's been a while.

PS - Let me know if you need a support vehicle / trailer on standby.

Cheers

Jason
