'Downshift Aus' April 2012 Meet-up (29th)

[BWoody]

Hi Guys,
I've got word that there is going to be a meet organised by a group called 'Downshift' at the Rocklea show grounds on the 29th of April, from 3pm onwards.
It's a car enthusiast meet-up, Might be worth making the Euro Presence felt (asking around BMW groups as well)
Possibly meet up before hand, and arrive as a group?

What do you guys think?

[team_v]

They have them every month.
Usually a good turn out.

We have the happy laps on that morning at Lakeside so i don't know how many people will be going from here.
I won't be able to make it as i have a chockers weekend.
