We all have the primal freedoms of the ‘80s stoking our fires somewhere / somehow…even deep down in places we’ve forgotten or are not allowed to talk about in wokie jokey today…well we thought we’d do something about it and allow you to express yourself once again at the ‘Wacky Races Downhill’ (actually the ‘No Rules Never Ever Chinese Downhill’, but whatever). Cult movies like ‘The Blizzard of Ahhhs’, ‘Dukes of Hazzard’, ‘Hotdog’, ‘Jetsons’ and ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ have inspired the kooky in all of us…we tore about in fluoro one-piece ski suits, silly hats, leg warmers and Robert E Lee style confederate wagons…we danced to MC Hammer, Tone Loc and the Funky Cold Medina…well some of us anyways…i got somewhat misdirected by the Go-Go girls in suede thigh-highs on pedestals, primed by a thousand supercans, depth chargers and wacky weeds (and apparently have needed careful counselling ever since). The gorgeous Delta Goodrem and Daisy Duke are kindly lending their bodacious talents to the event…so come ’n let loose your trapped inner ‘80s at our No Rules Chinese…sorry wokies, Wacky Races Downhill…
