Some Vic events that might be worth going too.

Organise your Bellett event here, or mention any Bellett-worthy car shows coming up!

Some Vic events that might be worth going too.

Post by Glenn »

Not official BCCV events but some stuff from the papers here, that could be nice to use up the Club Permit days!

I have been on the Gippsland b'fast morning with Barrie as reported elsewhere and its a great morning. I plan to go again. Any takers for a run down the highway from Narre Warren ?

I have been to the Peninsula Cruise night as spectator and it's good, but a bit of a rush after work (held during the week) for most people to get there. (Mornington)

Bonbeach sounds interesting, although I think $20 entry is a bit much (even for charity) when spectators get in for a dollar. I might just go take a look, no Bellett. Although, Fletch from CH 31 will be there and could possibly get Belletts some publicity if a few attended.

Fletch from classic restos.... Honestly, you'll waste your time mate.
I contacted him ages ago about my collection when he was asking for stuff in Melb for upcoming stories. He never even replied....
Saw him in Adelaide in 09 at the B2B. He wasn't interested in 'that jap stuff'.... And we were the featured marque with near on 30 cars all in a row.
He was contacted in 11 about doing a story on the Nats. He actually replied.... Which contained his fee and his 'requirements to attend' which read like a movie star's wishlist! Would have cost a bloody fortune.
From what I've seen and experienced, he's only interested in American tanks and the odd Aussie thing. There's even been very very few European cars on there, and I think the only Jap car (a Toyota Crown) was part of a bigger collection that he was interested in, so I don't even bother watching anymore.

I rarely watch it anyway. But a whole row of one make might get his attention......[for what its worth]

More to the point though, anybody in BCCV coming down to Warragul ??? You gte a fantastic reception there. And for free.

Glenn,
I am with Brett re that guy Fletch.
I also contacted him about CARnivale' and the Nationals, he is not interested!
Very picky Guy, as Brett said only interested in Yanks Tanks and some very, read exceptional Aussie cars and even that is not often enough.
As you have said, I NOW DO NOT BOTHER TO WATCH HIS SHOW!!!
