nah cause last year was gay, might go next year again.
i think it will be hard to top the 'riot' of '08 though, "BRING BACK THE SKIDS".
i never made it to nats when they were rowdy as fukk but i have it on good authority that '08 was a return to that level of awesome.

I went and it wasn't the best there weren't many entrants or people. but there was **** loads of security guards stopping skids and funny/drunk behavior that was gay.

My highlight was getting on the piss and running a much in the caravan park the nats themselves were pretty gay.

I went up last year and this year. Camped at the nats this yearand I thought it was pretty good. there were less entrants and there was plenty of skids being done up the back fri and sat arvo but the security keep the drunk idiots under control a bit better this tear. My best mates uncle had his newly built blown meth injected gemini there so spent plenty of time cruising in that which probably made the weekend more fun.

thanks man :drinks2: . have been wanting to post progress pics but it spent heaps of time in and out of diffirent workshops and got it back on xmas eve and spent every day of my holidays getting it ready for nats then on the thursday before nats we had software issues and couldnt tune it so i had to pussyfoot it around wich sucked (massive self control was needed so i didnt do skids) but i diddnt get defected wich was a bonus . hopefully next week i may have some results to post fingers crossed if the new template is a goer.
