All Ford Day 2009
Well
there hasn’t been too many updates on Wolfpac
recently and I have had an overwhelming response
from past sponsors and fans (yes that means
you Peter MR Red Pepper) to get the site back
so here we go.
I woke up at the crack of dawn, got ready
and jumped in the Nissan Pulsar Reebok and
no Disco I don’t have the matching shoes,
but please let me know if they ever come up
on ebay. First stop was to pick up big Manual.
Weighing in at a massive 130kg the poor Pulsar
felt the extra strain. We headed off to Sash’s
workshop where we were greeted by Sash. In
the background was the 711rwhp AN Racing XY
monster idling away.
In the pissing rain we headed off to Eastern
Creek this years host for All Ford Day. We
cruised along the M5 and M7. With and small
hydro roller and 8.5.1 comp the XY putted
along to our destination. We headed in the
entry and we were greeted by an official.
A quick chat and be proceeded through and
stopped by the next official. He sent us through
and met up with a third official. We proceeded
once more and got stopped by a fourth official,
now this place was harder to get around than
when president George Bush was last here.
Driving along the concourse section we spotted
Jeff B wiping and polishing his XAGT. Not
impressed that all his hard work preparing
the car during the week had to be redone.
We finally reached our destination and met
Roy from Street Fords in the Street Fords
garage. Sash parked the XY. This section was
setup with Sash’s XY, Roy’s XW and George’s
BA (recent blood sweat and gears contestant).
I immediately headed off to the back section.
At this point the weather was clearing up.
I walked down towards “The GT Club Inc” section
and saw the usual professional display of
muscle cars. The first to catch my attention
was Deano newly acquired magnificent Yellow
Fire XAGT. What a beauty. If Deano sells this
one I will kill him (unless its to me). Caught
up with all the boys Tim S, Tim M, Rob K,
Disco, Rob M and Toby. Some of the boys were
busy chating to “The Thugets".
Tim S XWGT along side Lou’s XWGT looked the
goods. Also I saw one of the best South African
examples that I have ever seen. Diamond blue
and a real gem of a car. If anyone is interested
I believe the car is for sale.
Due to the clearing weather a few stragglers
drove in. The “Big Unit” Billy, MR Red Pepper
and MR351. The boys parked and prepared their
cars and then sat down to relax and enjoy
the event.
I walked though the Mustang section and saw
a few nice Boss 302 examples. Definitely my
choice if I was ever to own a mustang. Through
to the “Falcon GT Owners Club Inc” section
where I met Con A in front of his plum XA.
What a beast. Sporting a new donk this baby
not only looks the part but looks like it
can move. I was really impressed with Ron
F’s XTGT. One of the best examples I have
seen. Really caught my attention this one.
Had a good chat and found him to be a real
down to earth guy. Checked out Billet's XB
couple which also looked fanstastic, a real
credit to him. I bumped into Scotty and we
chewed the fat. Angelo, Tom and Gerry rolled
through for a quick sticky as well.
Big Manual and I ended up at the Street Fords
garage where we hung around taking to people
about the upcoming trip to Perth in the AN
Racing XY. This is going to be one hell of
a road trip and the plan is that Wolfpac will
bring you updates along the way. Best thing
is that the Starlight Foundation will be receiving
a good chunk of money.
Irrespective of the dodgy weather this was
still a top day. Perhaps next year with finer
weather this event will be better than ever.
Here
are a few pics of the day so enjoy….
