as excited about PVS as I am? 
I can't wait, its been all I've been thinking about lately. Last years was good, but this year I'm going up on the saturday and camping over so it should be even more fun. I'll be taking my car up the strip even though its only a 1.2 16v (more for the experience and laugh). I've got a tent but I can't be bothered to use it - so I'll sleep in my car - It should be good watching the cars go up the strip and seeing all the show cars, I also want to have a word with the regal boys about something...
I'm so excited  Is anyone else? 
Now I know there are a few convoy's going up (i.e. SE / SW)... But I think I'm in the middle of these... Can someone from either say what route your going as it'd be cool to join the convoy some where on the way up on the saturday!
I must admit I'm gonna miss that feeling you get when you wake up at 5am (cold outside - still a bit dark), get in your car and head off to a show. Roads are empty, and as you get closer you start seeing more and more modded cars... It gets lighter and warmer and you finally arrive - usually joining a queue of modded cars Great feeling.
But I also feel this will be good - I'm hoping more people take their car up the drag strip as last year only a few of us did - partly due to the way the stand was laid out (was impossible to get your car out) hopefully this year will be designed better will be good to meet up with people from all over the country that I haven't seen for ages, and meet many new people. 
All in all its gonna be a top weekend.
(Sorry for the essay) - but It wouldn't be a true Paul_J post if it wasn't one

I'm looking forward to it as well, I'm doing the 5am drive up on Sunday. I hope to god my car isnt blocked in on the cs stand as I have to leave at 2pm as I'm going on holiday Sunday night. It will be nice to finally meet all you guys and put names to faces.
