Hanging Rock Car Show 2011

**HZSandman** · 14-02-2011, 11:35 AM

What a day. There were around 3 thousand cars this year. Biggest I have ever seen it. They were literally running out of room for the cars in the end.

Only 2 Sandmans though (Robs and ours)

And who should win the best car in show?

Rob

I think he needs to take out a Tatts ticket. There is something about the Yellow van that attracts the bugs and the judges. Gets their juices all flowing when they look in the back and see that vinyl archway :Chin:

Might not be all luck though as Robs brother in law won the whole thing last year so there could be a pattern worth investigating here.

In all seriousness, well done mate.

Congratulations Rob!

Well done to both of you guys (and partners). Sounds like a great day.

Good stuff Rob!

As a good HJ should! (it is really because HJ's look better, but don't tell the HZ blokes or they'll want a HJ too

)

I'll have a beer to that HK.

Hi All

Thanks Ian for posting photos etc. Still cannot believe that the yellow beast took out top prize. Big win for the Sandman brand when you consider all the GT's, Monaros & exotic stuff etc etc..(not Bad for a $20,000 investment)
Been told today there was a Green Sandman there as well (not sure what model).We didnt find that one Ian.This show covers such a big area you have to break it into sections, but still didnt get around all of it.
Ian we have a Tatts outlet up a few doors from our office so i might take your advice on ridng my luck.

cheers Rob.

Starting to think that I am the only one that likes HZs as well

Hey Rob Well done. Don't worry Ian, you know that I like HZ's as well so there is at least 2 of us. Must have been an awesome day, stupid work got in the way of me getting out there. We have to catch up for a cruise again soon.

We all love them. I just like HJ's better! Especially HJ GTS coupe, which is probably the best looking Holden outside of a HK GTS in my opinion. And a HJ ute is a HJ coupe utility! HZ's are awesome too though, and the twin front looks fine on a van, too much for a ute (again my opinion). I just don't like HX-Z stripes.
