Re: Crackerjack Carnival
hey people,
didn't go to cracker jack carnival last year but went the year before i hope its a good line up for the carnival as its usually better than the strawberry festival (Cleveland show)which is held in September.

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Nice to see you back, do you know what the Lineup for Crackerjack is Turbo_X? I'm just trying to decide if it's worth going... I suppose it might be as long as it's not flooded like last time!

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
hey people,
i cant promise the weather is going to be Kind but we can all hope as we have had such bad weather in the last week or so.
the weather forecast is looking rather un kind but in the last week or so they have gotten it wrong so we can hope its the same for the weekend. when we get out there on wednesday ill be able to give a better idea of whats going to be up there.

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Better lineup than last year. Thanks for the info Hurri, looks like a good lineup. Is that Coney Fair's Rok N Rol or Young's? I didn't think Young's took their unit anywhere out of NSW

TopGunner, the rock n roll at Crackerjack is Coney Fair's unit. And Josh, Crackerjack is at Carina (eastern suburbs of Brisbane)

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Alright thanks Hurri, I'm guessing Flashdance will make it to Rocky, will probably pack up Sunday night and make the trip up on Monday and setup between then. Umm not sure about the Power Surge going to Rocky, I heard its doing the Lower run so it may be going to Toogoolowah or Caboolture instead but you never know, Joylands may take it up. Hope this years Crackerjack goes well. Will we see any photos or a review?
Re: Crackerjack Carnival
If I get time off work, I will try and put together a review. I will see how things go.

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Well guy's, today was a bit busier than last night... however right in the middle of my rush on the joint... the power decided to start tripping every 30 seconds! it ended up taking 30 minutes to successfully finish one race, with the game stopping and starting as I lost power. All the customers thought it was great fun watching me entertain everyone. For the poor bugger's that paid, I ended up giving a 2nd race. At least the fact that I had to make an idiot of myself drew a massive crowd and was flat strap. As far as weather goes it was a brilliant day, looking a bit overcast but the rain held off. Got a ride on Cyber Party, Dale's Cha Cha as well as Power Surge today. I am off to bed now as I have a early start, will let you know how it goes.

Re: Crackerjack Carnival
At least its going all right up there, poor you with the power tripping out, not the best in the middle of a busy period. Hopefully the rest of the event goes well
Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Hurri, you are what every joint owner needs.
Re: Crackerjack Carnival
Some good news... the power did NOT trip today at all, and for the 2nd day in a row... my Joint made more than the Cyber Party The weather was great for once, unlike the usual "Crackerjack Weather" as it is known by the Showies. Also parts of Cyber Party have started to be re-painted, the main deck, fences and all the trims have been painted red. Not sure if it could lead to a possible re-theme in the future, but I guess we will see.
