Date has now been confirmed as 3rd November for a 1 day event only!!!

Quote from SportCompact.net.au:
NOVEMBER 3RD SET FOR 2007 CASTROL EDGE JAMBOREE VER 2.0
After the diappointment of the postponment, of the August 25/26 Castrol EDGE Jamboree due to weather and track conditions, we are finially able to confirm the re-scheduled event will be run on Saturday the 3rd of November. The re-scheduled event got of to a false start last week after securing Oct 13th as the new date. The venue was available but it was confirmed Tuesday that Willowbank was unable to supply the qualified staff to run the event with 300 competitors. It turns out that October 13th was the same date as the Warwick Drag Fest which is Warwick's biggest event. I for one didn't think it would be an issue if the 2 events ran on the same weekend but, a large number of the Willowbank staff, also work at the Warwick track for these big events. So we had a date but without the staff to run it a date had to be sort. Both the Sport Compact Group and the management of Willowbank Raceway sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this has caused on top of the rainout of Aug 25/26.

Tracey

Mini jam Why wait a year.


Hope it doesnt rain and all is sweet for this date aswell as most of the interstate teams can make it back.



More to the point I hope that BDWO6 slips in one of those damm lawnmowers that can run in the rain

haha pauls bringing his mower, his really loud 13bt mower it works in the rain, and in the mud and on trailers lol

arhhg..... crap....!

Bring it on, im there going for 9.50's

i think they should give poeple with tickets from the rained out event a discount since we didnt get to see anything

NOVEMBER 2007

EVENT


3 Sat Street Series Round 2

THIS EVENT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE SAME DAY!!??
GO FIGURE!!

what event?

what event?

Should be good, Jamboree how its supposed to be. Racing only, no other shit.

i still got my tix from the rained out one can i stil l get into this 1 with the same tix? pm me if u know the ans?

I've never seen so many topics for one event ... hopefully it stays put this time

Cant wait...

Just waiting to hear back from Ray directly with everyone's questions... I will update once i know...

ooo, day after my 25th birthday, ill be there, with a hangover for sure, lol

First post has been updated with new information!!!

Sat 3rd NOVEMBER 2007 (Street Series Round 2)

is the event that is supposed to be on on the 3rd of nov
its even on the willowbank website!!

The date for the Jamboree Rerun was only confirmed in the last couple of days... so im sure they have just rescheduled it and just havent got round to updating the website yet...

omg saturday it was rain all day and we have to pay half price thats shit!! sunday atleast they got to see a few cars run and didint ahve to stand the rain im a complain my ass of

Well thats what they have decided!!! quite frankly im surprised they are letting anyone back in for free at all... think about the amount of money they are loosing, organising 2 of these events in not cheap, especially one on short notice!!! and if you read your ticket... it also says no refunds so i am happy to pay half price or nothing to get in again vs paying full price!!!

But no point in complaining as they are not going to change their minds!!!

Anyways... im excited that they are running the whole thing again...

If anyone has any questions or suggestions, please dont hesitate to PM me...

can u enter to race at this date pm me

wtf, november?

can u imagine how how it is going to be out there. wont be favourable conditions

think, ill just wait for mini jam and call powercruise my premier motoring event this year

FUCK YOU MOTHER NATURE!

*pours fuel on trees outside*

1jz jzx90 i have PM'd you...

Unfortunately thats the best date they could get someblackguy...

Drag Racing: Being the November 3rd event is a continuation of the re-scheduled August 25/26 event, no entries will be accepted for Sports Bike, Street FWD, Street RWD & Street AWD. These classes are seeded and ready to race. Street FWD, Street RWD & Street AWD vehicles may enter the ET Class.

Have updated this in the first post...

mmm yea when we paid for the tix they said these might be re useable so i guess its fair

complain ya ass off? for fuck sake did u stop and think about how much the organisers lost, or the racers that came up from sydney, melbourne, perth or even new zeland? fuk i drove up from gold coast to race and still spent hundreds only to get 1 run. what a winger

pm me ya bank acc details ill give u the money just dont complain about having to pay 15bucks to get in please

Now now play nice ... some people were very hot headed from word go themselves remember

whinge whinge fucking whinge

sounds alright

pales in comparison to "race wars" in fast and the furious though

can you make it cash??I dont want the tax man to find out
I had mates fly up from sydney to watch the racing, they are flying up again now

lol yes i did and did u think they should have cancelled it knowing the up comming weather? do you think they considered that lol only reason i paid my 30 to get in to watch my missis do her thang on the walk......... other than that it really wasnt worth it neways im sure ill be able to whinge my way in for free

Surely you aren't serious...



Well piss off then

Some people go to these events to actually race not just perve on bitches. Have a cry over your $15. Cost me about $1000 for 1 run so far. My mate from NSW spent about $3500.

Everyone has spent money, some more then others but so has everyone involved in the actual event!!!!

So stop whinging because its not going to get you anywhere!!! If you dont like it, then simple, just dont go!!!! but dont waist everyone's time whinging here because your preaching to the wrong crowd!!!

On the positive side of things now, I for one could not make it out to the rained out event. This is the first Jamboree I have missed in several years. Now that they have re-scheduled, there is a good chance that I will be able to make it out. Yay.

it will be too hot LOL

Since budget is an issue why worry about of off track entertainment. While no doubt it compliments the track action when their are oil downs etc etc, Jambo has always been about the racing since the VW days and hopefully always be.

Im sure the fact then when both days where called off their was a mass exodus can back this up.

People want to see racing first and foremost the rest at most is a bonus to some. The racers just want to race.


Also I think its a good move keeping the spectators happy, while they might not of payed as much as an individual racer, they keep the $$$ flowing into the kitty to make the next event bigger and better. Alienating them does not do anyone any favours. Anyone doing some quick sums on a few 1000 people paying $30 a day can get what im saying.


Bring on Jambo VER2.0

Im going to attend the re-scheduled event, stop complaing people, at least it is still on and not cancelled completely

Due to the fact that we didn't finish qualifying on Aug 25th we have been able to re-open entries in most classes. Being that qualifying was completed in the Street FWD, Street RWD, Street AWD & Sports Bike classes we can't accept entries for these classes. Cars that would normally fit into the above classes will be eligible for the ET class though. So, entries will be accepted for ET, all Motor, Front Mod, Street 289, Super Mod, Extreme, Outlaw Sports Bike, Pro Compact & Pro Turbo. I know there were plenty of racers that weren't ready for Aug 25/26 so here is your chance.

Nov 3 will see the Show-N-Shine and Club Displays back for display purposes only. Judging for the Show-N-Shine and Club Displays were completed and trophies awarded on Aug 25/26. We are inviting all Show-N-Shine Entrants back, to display their vehicles on Nov 3 at no cost along with the Club Displays too. We've also re-opened the Show-N-Shines entries but no judging will be performed.

ALL ENTRIES CLOSED 8PM 26 OCT!!!!!

First post has been updated...

i will be there to have a look for sure i cant wait ay

Yeah its going to be a pretty full on weekend...

good to hear its back on sooner than i thought, but one question, WHY DID THEY HAVE THE 07 JAMBOREE EARLIER THIS YEAR??, they had it in August when normally its in September

it would have been all fine if they had sticked to when they normally have it...anyway will be there on saturday to spectate!

Have no idea... you would have to take that up with Sport Compact... could be any of a number of things like availability etc. Im sure there was a good reason for it...

But no point in being stuck in the past... whats done is done...

Just enjoy the j17 round 2 event!!!

Tracey

Yea the jamboree in august was a bit of a screw up with the weather
I will be there November 3 with my Sti i put in the Show n shine but wont be entering it this time
