    Stopped here for one of the stops on the Gumboot Rally. Such a sweet place, a real ghost town. There's a good pic floating around somewhere of all the Ford Escorts parked outside during the rally.

    Did the very same gumboot rally in the Piazza, awesome time! 

    There is an old Ohura Prison that is now used as a backpackers/accommodation.

    Pretty cool, still has the visiting area with the windows and phones set up.

    Make sure you wear jandals in the showers though, prison tinia was shit.

    Brit and Euro Classic Car Show - Auckland - Sunday 5th March

    Dear Classic Car Enthusiast,

    Welcome to the second Brit & Euro Classic Car Show. Thank you for your time and effort supporting this Auckland regional event and for displaying your classic car. We trust you enjoy the experience. Much voluntary effort has been put into planning for the car show by many people to make for a memorable day.

     

    Attached are the:

    ·         Road Access Plan (directions into the park)

    ·         Basic Layout Plan (shows cars in Zones A, B and C and specifies the correct area for each club)

    ·         Driver Information & Site Map (gives instructions and details the location of each Club more exactly)

    ·         Large Print A, B and C (put the correct one on your dash to help the parking marshals as you enter).

    Please ensure these are circulated, as appropriate, to your club members. There are a large number of vehicles registered this year (over 640) and all entrants need to be clear on which entry to use.

     

    Look out for the Access signs situated on Pakuranga Road and Cascades Road.

    A via Sir Lloyd Drive off Pakuranga Road

    B via Bells Road off Pakuranga Road

    C via Lady Marie Drive off Cascades Road

    Marshalls will be on hand to direct you from there to your site. 

     

    Marshalls will be in place from 7.45 am and all cars must be sited preferably before 9.00 am but certainly no later than 9.30 am. We would request you arrive early (at 8.15 am if possible) to help us correctly place cars before the show starts. 

     

    If your club was able to arrange a meeting place prior to starting off for the show and therefore arrive in convoy that would be extremely helpful. 

     

    The sites have been worked out on the number of cars confirmed.  If more cars arrive on the day we would try to accommodate keeping the cars together as long as it didn’t disrupt the sites either side, in which case the overflow would be moved to the ‘Independent Registrations’ site.   Once at your site it is your responsibility to arrange how you display the cars.

     

    Thank you again for your support.

    Kind Regards
    Garry Robinson
    Secretary

    Just sent them an email asking about club displays, I'll let you know if they come back with anything

    Got an email back from the organisers,  seem like a good sort:

     

    "It's free and it would be great to see you there.

    Register via the website as a group with x number of cars (get x as close to reality as possible and confirm if numbers change before the event by Jan 31st)."
