Australian Amusement Fanatics

Ok, thanks for the info. Where is Ngarauwahia exactly

State highway 1, about 1.5hrs south of Auckland, 15mins north of Hamilton

Ok, thanks mate

Not far from Huntley, we never went that way much when we went down south, prefered taking 27, rather than going through the satellite city.lol

Hope you intend to come over to Sydney around Easter, though will you be doing Auckland Easter show at this time.

Kiwi made it over for the show this year but yeh, the show will be later on. Kiwi,what do you for mahon's? What's your job?

See what I mean topgunner lol , it was actually a test and you passed

Yeah I forgot Kiwi, sorry, (old age)

Bit of this, bit of that, bit of everthing, not a lot if I can help it

I have been lucky in the last year, got to both EKKA, and Sydney. The others could be a bit hard due to show commitments. Thoroughly enjoyed both shows, and the warm weather.

Great to hear. Wow, I would've never thought it was a test. Shows how brainy i am Lol

Ride back together and went round, which is always a relieve

Everything but the cars/fences has had a repaint

Great, another great photo, thanks Kiwi. Lol, looks like the Davis Zipper before the cars got re-painted. Are you guys keeping the ride blue and yellow?

Yep, always was just different shades

Looks pretty neat!! Nice job

Thought I'd keep this thread going because it can be pretty interesting with what photos you can get. Stopped in at the Service centre on the F3 Freeway just before the Toukley turnoff and Justin Dale's rides were parked there. Only the Flashdance and his Cha Cha. Luckily had my camera:

Flashdance Load



Rig and Load




Cha Cha Load



Rig and Load



Both rides



I'd like to see this thread keep on going with photos. I'll try and get photos but its not everyday you just bump into them.

Thanks for the pictures Adam. I go along the F3 a fair bit and I never see anything intresting like this
Haha. Sorry everyone I dont have any pics of rides racked up or anything.. I have a picture of the zipper tilted up?



I think I may have posted that in my review of Narrabeen, but I thought it was relevent to the topic so there you's go..

Haha na I think that counts as setup, not racked. Nice try though lol

Haha. Aw damn ;P

Good on ya for saving the thread adam...
Seeing them like that is as cool as seeing them set up in my opinion...
Might score a few pics over aussie day today???

Yeh very interesting seeing how the rides rack up. Na no Australia Day photos. Where I went the only decent thing there was Joyland's Dodgem Track. But another event closeby had the Hard Rock, Hurricane, Round-Up, Cha Cha and a few others so I'll probably be heading there next year. But still a good day to celebrate being Aussie

Can some tell me step by step how to get the photo's off my computer onto here please its been a very long time and I have forgotten..lol

thats ok 648, some of us (me) send them to other people to upload

1) Go to: www.photobucket.com
2) make an account (if you already dont have one)
3) go into the upload section and select the pictures you would like.
4) copy and paste to code onto the board

Thanks paulie 123 and a good idea princess

x648 I'd upload some photos for you if you like

I have a few more photos to upload into this thread. Firstly I'll start off with the Scania Prime Mover with generator on the back of the rig which transports the Top Gun. Sorry image is a bit dark.

I know I've posted a few of these photos already but I'll put them up anyway. First is a full length shot of Foster's/East Coast Amusement's Top Gun all packed up about to be setup.



Next two are Ted Foster's Sizzler and Dodgem Track racked.
