For sure if you can lend a hand with the sway bars! No they still aren't in yet... Or the injectors... or anything. It's been too damn hot to do much of nothing on my car.

well in 6 months when i get my license back i WILL NOT be doing any burnouts. ill just be the idiot in the back seat of everyone elses car egging them on to bag it up.

what gets me worst is there was noone behind me when i started the burnout but by the time i pulled out of the cloud, there was a cop on my tail.

OK OK, seeing as I suggested this thing I should really pull my finger out and organise something. However, I cannot do this Sunday as both my mother-in-law to be and brother-in-law to be are celebrating their birthdays that day. Missing the first of these for a car club cruise, whilst setting a firm precedent, would not be tactically wise. Married members will know what I'm talking about there!

So, may I suggest we choose a weekend that suits as many as possible in Feb and aim for that? In the meantime I will look into routes and venues if we want to stop somewhere for lunch etc.

Think you'll find everyone's been popping in, but I know I've kept my mouth shut when it comes to organising anything.

Thanks for doing this Brenton....Greatly appreciated.

I was going to enlist your help Tam, I remember at some point you mentioning that you had some route maps for various cruises? Or is my memory failing me in my old age??

Why don't we just make it a club meet for lunch some place?

I know it's going to be hard to find something central for everyone but I'm sure it's not only me that doesn't mind driving to catch up with everyone.

That way you don't have to skrew around with maps and me taking wrong turns! LOL

Nope not failing you. Will send you an email tomorrow with a heap of different ones. If you don't want to use them that's cool, should at least give you some ideas if you chose to cruise..

This is a good idea as well. We could all just follow a lead car to a particular place. Keep it all hush hush so no one's able to speed off and race ahead. This will keep everyone together.


Either way, you all know I'm in. Will try and raise a few members from the dead, and hopefully drag along a newbie or two.

As long as it's not near the 9th Feb (Steve's B'day is the 7th) should be OK any other day.

It takes you more than 2 days to get over a party?

You must party pretty hard then!

OK, many thanks to Tam for sending me 4 different cruise maps, one with passenger entertainment extras!

I'm thinking we do a cruise/lunch. I have just been on google maps looking at routes through the hills to get to a really nice place that I know of that would be a good spot for lunch. I'll check prices and let people know. The trip up would involve going through Stirling & Aldgate which would be quite cool if we did it en masse, Soarer after Soarer after Soarer cruising through would look awesome. Coming back we can do the same through Mt Barker and Hahndorf. Of course Celsiors are welcome too, they just have to be in their usual spot at the back LOL.

Good luck with keeping Ken at the back of the pack...

Would have sent you more emails but apparently 5 pm's is the limit. After that I'm not allowed to pm you unless you pm me. So pm me and I can send you more pm's, and I can only send 5 pm's an hour. So now the hours passed so pm me and I'll pm you. :-)

Hi All!! Ash welcome and Tamantha thank you for your vote of confidence.....I don't think I would stay at the back of the pack either!!!
Hi also to you Traff, - I'm happy to catch up at the Parade of Perv sometime soon to jointly nut out a new run if you like, it seems high time to me and it's a few months now since the last big one up the river.
Also Pen if you read this could you send me a quick price list please as I have to renew my work internet thingy very soon and want to see about changing.
Cheers All

G'day All. Ok, time is becoming rather critical for me at present, trying to sell two properties and having to move into another property on the 15th/16th/17th of Feb. The weekend after that is Clipsal, which may rule out a few people for the cruise so I'm now thinking early March could be the go.

Ken, would be happy to catch up at Cafe Pervo for a coffee and some eye candy whilst we put a new route together, I've some ideas already. I'll bring the laptop so we can get on google maps etc. Let's set something up soon to do that.
