I know the Bathurst is run over a couple of days but to be "limited" to 24 tinnies or 4 litres of wine

I'm a Scot and I can drink but either the stuff they're selling ya is guff or I really need to get back in practice if I'm ever comin across to visit

Bill

the beer here is sh*t because its so hot its easy to keep drinking to cool down

Yeah, they did it the last few years. The smart guys are currently up ontop of Mount Panorama burying kegs & cases as we speak... I sh*t you not, they'll be up there.
Its the boosiest event on the calendar, 4 full days of V8 racing with everything from Vintage mini's, Lotus Cortinas & Camaro's to Ferraris & Lambos.
Its every Brikie, Chippie & Sparkies's annual holiday, I met a bloke last year who had a full sized fridge in his tent. I asked him where he got power from & he
told me that over the 20 years they'd been coming, they dug & concreted a tunnel a little bit each year up some 2 kms from his mates farm nearby. They then
concreted a small slab in ground with a hydrant style metal lid in it. Each year they pitched their tent over the top of the slab & pulled out the power cable & rang
their mate to turn the other end on at the farm They even had glass framed photo's of Brokie on the tent walls

^^^^^^^ now thats f**ken dedication....I LOVE IT

Holy sh*t

That is genius, they may be pissheads but they have definitely have a bit of ingenuity in them before they hit the booze First time hearing this though...hmm

That is INSANE...a 2km hole...LOL alco's

Forward planning, just for a decent piss up, whereas over here we cant even organise a decent piss up in a local brewery

These guys could make a fortune over here in local politics, they'd either fit right in as lunatics or be hailed as genuises for actually getting things done
