That Time Of Year…

…and by that time of year I mean the period where I wish I went to SummerNats in Australia. If I could choose one event for a wealthy dowager to fly me to I am pretty sure it would be this one.

In addition to looking like a flat out awesome party the vehicles that show up are incredibly diverse and the burnout contest is, quite frankly, out of hand.

Here are a few photos I found kicking around this morning while looking for videos of the swapped e46 I posted on the Facebook fan page yesterday.

Still waiting on what will no doubt be a landslide of videos to follow.
