Hi guys this is the latest up date from Beachhop NZ.
Entry Update
As of today 2/3 of Standard Passes for Beach Hop 2009 are sold! We have the same number of cars entered at this point as what we did on Jan 30 2008 for BH08 – that is how far ahead we are…. If you are planning to participate in the full festival, then you’ll need to be very quick as we are going to cap the number of entries shortly. We also have even more incentives to enter the Festival, but more on that in our next newsletter... In the meantime you can enter online or download an entry form from our website www.beachhop.co.nz

Email Problem
We apologise for the delay some people recently experienced in receiving their entry confirmation email. We were processing these from the USA and had some real issues with email at times. But we are back in New Zealand now and the system is working well. If you have entered the Festival, but not heard back from us, then please email us info@beachhop.co.nz and we’ll check our records and confirm with you ASAP.

Project Cars Update
Last week we delivered the 3rd and final Mustang to Famous Pacific Shipping’s agent in Los Angeles, so the cars are in good hands now. This was the first time all 3 cars were parked together, and we managed to snap a couple of photos which are on our website – http://www.beachhop.co.nz/2009_car.htm so make sure you take a peek at the making of the biggest classic car give away in New Zealand’s history. It will be great to compare the cars once we’ve given them a makeover using our sponsor’s excellent products! The next time we’ll see them is in a few weeks at Famous Pacific Shipping’s top class facility near Auckland International Airport.

Have fun!
See Ya Garry ;11

Crikes! Can I stay here with you lot? That is a PRIMO spot... Oh boy, you guys are gonna have fun!

If any of you are interested, the Nostalgia Drag Nationals are on the weekend after BH09 - it is a 2 hour drive from Whangamata and only 40 min from Auckland. I'm sure you can fill in the days inbetween with Shop visits, mud pools and fishing...
