2008 Sale Show (Review,pics and videos added)

Post by Matt Diabolism »

Some gear has started to show up..mostly Bells.Most of it was probably at Maffra Show yesterday.Maffra is a small country town around 15 k's from Sale.I remember my sister taking me to Maffra Show around 15 years ago,and there were no majors there..just a few joints and kids rides,but in the last 8 or so years Bells have been making an appearance with Hurricane and Music Trip..a couple of others have probably shown up as well.
On the grounds at Sale so far:

HURRICANE

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

MUSIC TRIP

Image

DODGEMS

Image

TILT

Image

CHA CHA

Image
Image

TORNADO

Image

Hopefully there are some pleasant surprises in store for the next 4 days.

Goldenway don't usually go there so i'm sure it won't be there. Thanks alot for the photos. Whose Tilt is that? I can't tell but is it Brown's Twister or the CLTS Tilt? That'd be good if No Limit turned up

Yes Huss,No Limit hasnt been here yet..and I doubt it will show up this year.It will most likely be at Colac.
Top Gunner,it's CLTS'(Or is it CTLS?) Tilt.As I said last year,I wish we still got the old Tilt O Whirl,it was alot more intense.
No sign of Mega Drop yet,it may show up tomorrow.I wont miss it if it doesnt show though..would rather see Ali Baba.

Thanks for all these pre show pics, i think thats wat I will also be hard at work doing for my local show! Well, i'm surprised that Zipper has turned up and esspecially Deans unit! And also Scorpion making its second appearence in a row. Matt, you might not like me for this but, I that this may be the case: cuz zipper hasn't been there for a few years they may count it as a 'New Ride', well thats at least wat I think, r u gonna take some pics from the show, would love u to!

What a great classic line up I must say! Zipper, Cha Cha, Hurricane and a Round Up. I am really impressed, it should be a fun little show. Don't think I will get there though....I am not sure what Colac gets (never ever been), anyway keep posting updates if you have them (throw a couple more good rides in and I just may have to go this year!).

How on earth have they managed to rack that Zipper without taking two cars off like Wittingslow used to.

that is a fair question HUSS, I was wondering the same. Perhaps it has had some modification work. It is really looking modern with its newly painted cars. Could pass for a late 1990's model, racked up like that.

It is a long way to go, I went a few years ago since I was driving past and it was worth it for me just to see and ride Bell's Hurricane again. I went on a Sunday afternoon - there was no one on the gate so I just walked right in.

No Mega Drop,it's usually here by now...it's probably at Colac.Nothing else arrived today,this is probably all for this year.Would've liked at least one more major..oh well.

Weather is looking crap for both days...rain and storms.Hopefully it wont be as bad as last year.Saturday was completely rained out.All rides were closed,and no admission was charged.All the majors got bogged trying to leave...most stayed on the grounds till mid-week.

Great photos - thanks for uploading them!

I personally think Sale is a very good country show for a weekend event. Nice to see some of Bell's gear - it never disappoints.
