One thing is certain - if you're in New South Wales this weekend, you wont have far to go to a truck show. That's where most of the action is happening and there are a few lively ones included. Truck Drags Australia returns with their second event at Eastern Creek for the year and Brighton, Tasmania also has their truck show on, including a visit from Yogi of Outback Truckers.
Definitely lots to do, more information and brochures below. Follow our Facebook page for weekly updates and let us know if you have an event coming up so we can help get it out there.
