I'm tempted. If I head down will be between 10:30-1:30 some time.
Will have my son with me so probably wouldnt be there THAT long, as being only 2 he gets pretty bored of car shows quickly

Yeah, i think i have a problem. Wont be doing anymore show's for a while though (with the Sigma anyway), atleast not till Extreme HorsePower (hopefully have the Sigma going again by then) anyway.

The funniest thing is seeing/watching people's reaction's at the show's. Ya hear the usual comments like 'sikma' and 'skidma'... but some kind of walk past and not really take much notice till they spot the seat's or the intercooler and come back for a better look. Best one was at Extreme where we had the bonnet open on the 2nd half of Sunday, but was only open about 15cm, we (SMASA people) sat at our display watching people trying to see what was under the bonnet. More people looked at the Sigma than they did at the Holden HX GTS and Turbo Ford XB Coupe coz it was something different.
