Just after expressions from people in the ACT region who may be interested in forming a commodore club down here. Canberra is pretty boring as we all know and we dont seem to get together to much. There is a bloody lot of commodores down here and i think the development of such a club would be good to get to know everyone. This is just an idea at this stage so if you wanna support it let me know and who knows maybe we can push further to get our drag strip thats been promised for the last 4 years. Everyone who comes along would have an input and as we seen some cops are half decent with our first commodore get together a few months back. So hopefully we dont have to worry bout them. Anyways any feedback would be great: Cheers Kurt SMOOTH VL

I'm interested, What other things did you have in mind ? What type of membership were you looking at, all Commodores, VL's or Just Turbo's.. As for events and the like, a couple of guys I know go to Wakefield every few months or so for a few laps , and I went to the WRX Drive day at the Majura Skid pan a while ago, I've Never seen such abuse of new cars in my life...a couple even went off the end of the skid pan hehehe Let me know Cheers Graeme Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
