Not sure if I've already told you this, but I'm coming over to NZ on February 5th next year for a month.
I'm trying to find out about some events that might be going on in the South Island - staying in Dunedin for a bit, then travelling around the South Island for 12 days. I heard something about the Dunedin Speed Trials, but can't find anything on the net about it........!?
Where abouts are you from?
Cheers

 I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like. |

AWESOME DUDE!  I'm from Invercargill, which is just down and to the left of Dunedin, a few hours drive. The guy with the 510 in my Datsun meet picture lives in Dunedin, so that could be handy! I've heard nothing of the Dunedin speed trials but I'll see if I can't find something. OOOOOOOOOH! you're in luck! from the 11th-13th of February is the Classic Speed Fest at Teretonga Racetrack (about a minute outside Invercargill) people come from all over, infact I have pictures online from this years one! www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=557There's Clubman Racing, Mini racing, sometimes RX7's, Pre-65's, Classic and Historic and even some Formula 5000, the stuff that makes your stomach vibrate for hours if you stand too close ;D It's a good few days, that's for sure. |

Just got loads of information from the net about the 'Southern Festival of Speed' - 5th - 27th February. That event at Teretonga is part of the festival....... We're going to have to arrange a meet up - maybe at one of the events.  |

For sure! Chances are I'll be there as will my brother so if we somehow don't manage to maintain contact and you spy a red 240Z there or a blue 240K then just come on over and introduce yourself as the Mini selling Robot from the UK ;D

Ooooh, also Alfaholic is only just up a bit further away in Christchurch and there's plenty of nice cars for sale there, some R32 GT-R's you could probably take a test drive in  |
