Thanks to AFF for organising such a great day. We had a blast in VIC.

The cruise down to geelong was very fun. It was nice hearing all the exhaust blarring past me. XR8ED your ute sounds sweet.

A big thanks to all the members that made it to this event in each state. There will be alot of happy kids this year.

Hopefully next year it can be bigger and better and we can make more kids happy.

Hi all,

What can one say but a great day !! It was excellent to see a good turn out, and the location and weather was bliss.

Congratulations to all of the people that made it the success that it was, the missus and the kids had a great time, and we are awaiting next years now. With the BBQ and the Toys it will truely make a number of children smile this Christmas...thats for sure.

Thanks once again for a great day.

Hi and welcome to the Forum, that's what its all about having some fun with a bunch of car enthusiasts and at the same time helping kids and charity.
I hope we see you and many more make it along next year, more cars means more toys.
