Shepparton Show 10th and 11th Oct
Shep Show is back again this weekend, and it's usually a very big one too I must say (I would even say better than the Geelong and Melbourne Shows of late). Has anyone got some info on what will be there?... I am keen to know since it's a nice drive up from Melbourne. I need to see and ride a couple of classic rides asap (you'll know exacltly what I mean, the ride withdrawals are setting in again).

Hello, I am keen to see wat will be goin this year. My guess would be: Zipper, Tilt, Space Roller, Hanogver, Kamikaze, Ali Baba, Crazy Coaster, Techno Jump, Breakdance. I think that Scorpion wont go this year due to it being sold. If u look on the Geelong Shows website, it says that Brodwick Paviers Halloween Ghost Train is goin to be there, maybe it might go, u never know. This used to b my local show, but I have sinced moved to Ballarat, and I'n lookin forward to that one. Next year I'm gonna get over there to the show. It's a great show, anyone who goes will enjoy it! Huss since u r goin to the show, r u gonna go some pics and a review?

Yeah, last years line up was pretty jam packed and also had Lauries Cha Cha if I remember too (which is always good fun).
I did Ballarat a couple years ago and it was Hard Rock, Ali Baba, Space Roller, Breakdance, Hang Over, Clif Hanger and Crazy Coaster were all the majors, still needing more I did Dandy the very next day, so 2 shows in a weekend, was good. I hope to see Round Up, Hurricane or even Force 10 again at one of these regionals, oh and we need Turbo and Super Loops back on the grounds to shake things up again. There are so many great rides I can remember that we just don't see anymore.

Regarding the sale of Hurricane...I got the info from this forum,so it's second hand info..not sure how accurate it is..and don't remember who posted it either.Scorpion will almost definitely be at Shepp.,I hope it doesn't show up at Sale this year..would rather see Ali Baba,or even better,Spaceroller..it has been known to do regionals.

As I didn't know that Strattons was based in Melbourne i just assumed it wouldn't be goin this year. Scorpion is one of my fav rides, it needs to turn up at Ballarat. I was just lookin at a Ballarat Show Flyer and it had a pic of Scorpion, so it might go? Gee if Space Roller turned up at Sale I would be there like a flash!

That's probably Gerorge or Charlie's track. Yes but Aaron has a bought a new track and cars and apparently they look good. Yeh, who did their Hurri get sold to? And SRF, (Peter Stratton) is based in Melbourne and then there's John Stratton who is based in SA. Scorpion hasn't been running backwards in a long time. But I hope it pops up around Sydney soon

Yesterday was great fun, awesome warm weather, and big crowds.
Lineup:
Tilt
Kamikaze
Space Roller
Zipper (Davis)
Hangover
Speed
Cliffhanger
Crazy Cars (Some new dodgems, that looked to be the same size as TPA's)
Big Wheel
Crazy Coaster
Halloween (Surprising)
Paratrooper
Sea X-Plorer (and another one of those simulators)
Overall a good show, and Davis' Zipper is looking great with the new paintjob on the cages.
Pictures and OzRides videos SOON!
