2011 All Chrysler Day - Albury NSW
The Albury-Wodonga Chrysler Club put on a stunning weekend (March 19-20, 2011) to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the famous Valiant Charger. More than 190 Chargers attended, with owners coming from all over Australia and New Zealand to celebrate. Every Valiant produced was represented as well as a huge turn out of US Mopar muscle.
AMCS always loves a roadtrip!
And the Hume Highway is a terrific drive between Sydney and Albury.
Having never driven a R/T Charger on a long distance trip AMCS now must humbly line up behind all the other Charger converts from Peter Brock and Allan Moffat to the thousands of Chrysler enthusiasts out there who are literally blown away with the performance and torque of the mighty Hemi 6 Pac. They just go like nothing else from the 70s AMCS has ever driven.
Once in Albury, the town was alive with Chrysler product. Hotel car parks looked like a throw back to the 70s and the streets, lined with Valiants and Mopar muscle took you back 40 years. From one owners to new owners, and multi car owners, everyone was there to celebrate their passion.
A huge treat for all attendees was the Fuchs Oil Charger seminar MCed by Ray Iken which featured racing drivers, designers, engineers and managers of the Charger program. Drivers Leo Geoghegan, Leo Leonard from New Zealand, Phil Brock, Peter Brown, Ray Kaleda, Jim McKeown, Clem Smith and Graham Ryan joined engineering and design executives John Ellis, John Grant and Rob Burke to entertain the crowd with fascinating stories of the development, design and racing of the R/T Chargers.
The Dodge City dyno was also in high demand with some amazing outputs running to over 800 RW Hp for a C300 supercharger Chrysler.
And the group photo shoot at the Ettamogah Pub showed dramatically how many Chargers are still hammering down the expressway doing what they were designed to do.
Now AMCS is looking forward to the 20th Chryslers on the Murray in 2012!
