I think there around a $100+.... I have one but it needs to be built, all the poles are separate. I'll invest in one that builds itself. :

I'll take a look at them as well.
Righto Guys the B-Series Nationals web-site is up and running, take a look here: B-Series Nationals . This site shows the complete history of the Meets in Parkes since the first one. You can link through to a whole bunch of interesting site around the area including accommodation and dinning along with points of interest. This is the site to save in your favorites so you can enter your car, bring the missus n' kids and you can also pay your entry fees associated with the Nationals. Get in now, before all the accommodation is gone around town, last years meet caused over 300 cars to enter for the day. So accommodation may be scares. This is your B-series, so don't miss out on this one boys n' girls!

As of tomorrow there are 35 weeks until Parkes....based on an average of 2 people for dinner Saturday & Sunday night, plus accommodation for 3 nights, and entry into the show is around $400 for the weekend....about $12 per week to put away.
Allow $20 per week and it gives you a total of $700 to play with for all of the above, fuel, breakfast and lunch......"beer" money is extra of course : So pack a bit away each week guys and it won't be a hard stretch at the end. Those that can, start early...get your entry form and fee in, that's one less thing to pay for as it gets closer. |

Personally, we've stayed at Spicer Caravan Park in one of their cabins. Found it clean, close to town, and not expensive. HTH Would be good to see you there if you could make it. |

As far as accommodation goes, if you wish to stay with the group then scroll up a couple of posts for the accommodation link with prices. Post and let me know which room you would like, and if your staying Fri, Sat, Sun etc and I'll make the booking. PM me with your full name so I can give this to The Coachman and our records will be reconciled. As for dinner on Saturday (buffet meal at The Coachman approx $30per head) and Sunday night (Chinese meal at the BSeries local in Parkes), you'll find the dinner attendees list there too, add your name and number of adults and children attending so we know how many to cater for. |

What we've been up to............
So far we've secured some prizes for the raffle we'll hold at dinner on Saturday night. With another couple of ideas in the works......who knows. Any suggestions for further prizes or donations please shoot Burnout or myself a PM. At this stage it looks like BSeries will have High Octane Performance Coatings coming to Parkes to set up a trade stall for the day. They'll be able to answer any questions you have in regards to ceramic coatings for headers, turbo's etc. There will be other trade stalls there on the day that CWCC have organised. |
