I trust you all enjoyed the event we had to offer at Donald. I have never seen so much of a buzz at an event as i did over the weekend. It's just a pity there wasn't a bigger field there to enjoy it.

Roll on next year where hopefully a National beckons.

Those damn South Australians took out all the placings

Thanks for the compliments Trekka.
Yes it is one of the best races I have been to. Yes I think it can be the best race in Aussie given the chance. Yes I am hoping to go to Sea Lake. Yes I will definitely go to Donald next year. (hopefully a national round)
Sorry I did,nt catch up with you Renegade, but the buzz did keep us busy.
Congrats to all involved, Well done to the organizers who made us & everyone else so welcome & offered any help required & went out of ther way to keep us all happy.
The fireworks show was probably the best I have ever seen (never been to Sydney new year though)!
The pizzas from Jonnos Diner were great, thanks to the driver who also called to the bottlo for us. Thanks to the bottlo who gave me a beer sign coreflute to duct my radiator.
Donald looks to be a great town, well presented, and the locals like us off-roaders...thanks for the hospitality.

I'll make myself more known at Sealake if I go.

I was in Scrutineering on the Friday when you guys came through then was busy during the day lounging under a railway bridge pretending to do recovery. I did wander across from my on-site van on the Saturday evening but got sidetracked by Ian McDonald and forgot to introduce myself. I will next time though. ;)

Owen and the guys have worked hard to bring the event to such a high standard over the last year or so and it's no accident that we now start in the showgrounds. You'll have to agree that this event is far more family friendly than any other in that spouses and kids aren't trapped in the pits (or public areas) all day and can wander into town or back to camp without any trouble. I know the locals may be looking at also running tours of the local area next year and i put it the idea of maybe a country fair or the like be run in conjunction with the race to keep all and sundry occupied. I imagine any more ideas would be welcomed.

Don't mention the Sydney fireworks are bigger. Owen hates to be out-done by anyone......

Unfortunately there were not enough entries to truly show off The Donald 500 for the event it truly deserves to be but all i have spoken to are of the same opinion as you.
