Default Spring nats!

As everyone knows spring nats is coming up pretty soon and i was wondering how many of us OzECruisers are coming up/down to Shepparton for the event,

i've never been on a cruise or a mini meet and wouldn't mind meeting some of you guys and seeing some of the cars in the flesh,

cheers troy

When is Springnats? My biggest concern is the Police being Nazis... I've heard many horror stories about Springnats.

ah 24th, 25h and 26th of november.
yeah the coppers can be pretty bad but if you just cruise and dont drive like a hoon they pretty much leave you alone, i didnt get touched at all last spring nats, just cruise and you'll be fine,

cheers troy

There has been virtually no media about the SpringNats this year, there is generally either some promotion of the event or some comment from the organiser, the police or the council, but I haven't seen a thing yet.

I agree, with how soft the show has been generally lately I can't see as much police attention as in previous years. Then again it's the only bit of revhead action I get every year so I will be going, would be good to meet some other AFF members there

I went there 2 years ago on Ultra Lows and 17"s and Clear Tail Lights and didnt get hassled by the police but in saying that any time i passed them they had already pulled some one over OR anytime i drove somewhere I missed them

well i've never had trouble and my mates havent either,

buy shouldnt have any problems if you just cruise,

cheers troy
