just putting out a final call to exhibitors at the expo. i need the following info off you BEFORE the 16th of april,but the sooner the better .
- name
- reptile licence number
- species name(common and scientific) and amount
- phone number
- if bringing hatchies,that wont be on the EPA's paperwork,just mark them as "hatchies".
we have had a great response so far and we have a great mixture of very high quality reptiles on the way to the expo from all over queensland.if any other people or breeders wish to display their reptiles there ,it will a great opportunity to get your name out to the general public and show off your breeders.even though we cannot sell or advertise anything at the expo,the EPA have allowed us to hand out buisness cards which is great news for the hobby breeders.
seeing as we cant sell hatchies at the expo ,the majority of the pythons on display will be sub-adults to large adults
Simon and Diane Stone from Southern Cross Reptiles will be there doing the meet and greet thing,talking to everyone,answering whatever questions you can throw at them.many thanks to them for donating their time to fly up for the expo.
in return,i will be taking Simon for a pass in my drag car on the sunday morning at benaraby raceway so that will be entertaining in itself.will post photos afterwards.
i can be contacted on 0422589221 for further information.
cheers

just posting a pic from hot FM "face your fears " with the "people in a bubble"competition.the first girl was blindfolded and raised up 5 meters in a cherry picker with Derek and 2 bredlis.when she took the blindfold off she went absoluetly hysterical.we had to bring her back down because we thought she was going to jump out.funny for us though.
the second bloke(photo)was tied to a chair,then we dumped 2 bredlis and a coastal on him and he was actually calling for his mummy and swearing numerous times.they said they would replay it tomorrow morning so listen in if you get a chance. |

Is it street rego'd? | when it was naturally aspirated and still a streeter about 16 years ago it was running 13.0 sec @104mph but was fairly basic still.not a streeter now though and still plenty that can be done to it.no roller cam in it yet, still has standard rods ,and we have a very rare alloy duggan head in the shed that we will throw on at a later date.if i had a spare $10000-$15000, getting 1000 flywheel horsepower out of the old 202 could be a close possiblity. | | |
