LastminuteNats Cancelled!!


Bad News!! The Last Minute Nats event which was to be held on April 3rd 2010 has been cancelled.

We have been working with authorities to try and resolve a number of issues and have just run out of time.

When the concept was proposed last week it was a genuine attempt to provide an alternative to the cancelled EasterNats event, however, following meetings which occurred as a result of the response to a recent event in Melbourne, the consequence of which has changed the thinking of the authorities in relation to the running of the Last Minute Nats at this time.

We apologise for any inconvenience and I assure you that this will not affect any future events and I have an assurance from the authorities for their support when running similar types of events in the future.

Kindest regards,

Adam Ronke

A bloody shame, those idiots who trashed the Bob Jane store have this to answer for too.

Yeah I'm rather disappointed that its been cancelled as well, I was really looking forward to it. They shouldn't have said that its defiantly on if they were yet to finalise things. Did you have to pay before hand for entering?

Wadda ya gonna do? Throw a wheel through their window. I am sure Adam will do the right thing, he is an honourable bloke and did his very best to give you guys an event, it wan't his fault that the wankers in Melbourne decided to **** up.

The GV car club holds events there every 3 months or so. Anyone can enter for about $60. Motorkhana. drags and skids. Its a fairly fun day out.
