Russ Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 This is a thread for the first National PFA meet for the first weekend in August 2016 at Valla Beach Resort (right next to Nambucca Heads, NSW) We'll be tying it in with the VW Spectacular, I've been in contact with the event organisers and she's happy to have us come and participate. There are events on the week leading up to the event but I normally just go for the weekendI'll update this first post with information as I get itThe schedule is as follows:Friday - Racing at Raleigh Raceway (a small track mainly used for go-karts, but it looks good fun - info on the track is here http://www.raleighraceway.com.au they are happy to have us participate in racing and I'll have entry details soon)Saturday Morning - Street Parade in Nambucca Heads (morning)/Swap Meet back at Valla Beach (Afternoon) - Drive in convoy to the centre of Nambucca heads and fill up the street, last time they did it they had 530+ VWs (and hopefully we get quite a few Porsches to add to this)Saturday Afternoon - Swap meet (this carries over to Sunday too sometimes) if anyone is interested in a booth or space to sell items please let me know and I'll see what I can arrange for you, there is obviously a bit of a crossover for VW/Porsche stuffSunday - Show n Shine at Valla Beach Resort, We'll hopefully have our own area for Porsches with PFA banners etcMonday - Farewell breakfast, and I think they sometimes have some events but I normally go home this dayI will be planning it as a 4 day event but the actual VW specatular runs for an entire week so you're free to attend what you'd likeI'm going to go down Thursday and back Monday (via the Walcha-Wauchope road, and the New England Highway because I hate the Pacific Highway) if anyone is keen in travelling together.So far attendees are:TINGY944QuozlSteinyFlatSixByronBayChrisespskkTitAmandaRussCalRod CCaverGC9911NikoSteveFtk111tony1StephenSCaledonianSteveT9fan?NiXSteamwolfIAM_911hughKerryOZ930UncleHughesyPam986Maybe attending:BAFET-ManMike737CalHarvs11D-BangerAccomidation required:RussUncle (camping)FlatSixQuozlSteinyRod CCaverByronBayChrisespskkTitPlease only direct accommodation enquiries to me (as the park would prefer one single booking) - accommodation details in this postIncluding letting me know if you need camping space!You'll be hard pressed to find somewhere to stay in/around Nambucca Heads so you might need to commute to Coffs Harbour if you're looking at sorting your own accomidation (the 'Valla Beach Resort' park the event is at is already booked out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberpunky Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 why so far ahead ? did you mean 15 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINGY Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 Ok sounds good. What event are you trying to tee it up with Russ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted 8August, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 why so far ahead ? did you mean 15 ? to give people a longer amount of time to organise to drive across Australia to get there... and I meant 2016. Ok sounds good. What event are you trying to tee it up with Russ? The VW Spectacular at Nambucca Heads. It used to be a VW/Porsche thing (and there were a few there this time) I'm getting some idea on what numbers to expect before I speak to Mark Pell and see what he thinks about more Porsche involvement. Assuming people don't mind mixing with VWs (and 3.4 flat 6 engined split screen drag kombi's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephenS Posted 9August, 2014 Report Share Posted 9August, 2014 I'd be up for that for sure. Also up for something a little earlier in the calendar, maybe a meet half way between the NSW/ACT and Qld locals? Say Coffs Harbour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tit Posted 9August, 2014 Report Share Posted 9August, 2014 Don't forget Tassie in October-ish 2015. Not sure if Canberra is happening in March 2016. Niko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AARRGGHHH good question, I will have a round table with the other organisers during next week and let you all know, but I guess if this is a one off type thing and gains a lot of attendees then, maybe we could put Canberra on hold for that year. That's what I would think personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
