hey james, just to confirm, it is the BP that's on Coach Rd E? Whereis says this one:
Telstra - WIFI Mcdonalds Bp Caboolture Southbound E Burpengary, QLD - about 15-20mins up from the gateway bridge?
My mobo is 0419265868. ive got your number down as well so ill give ya a call when we rock up @ BP.
Ive also got some mates who are meeting up at my place and then we're all cruising down to Burpengary, so if any other local guys in southeast brissy around Rochedale/Mt Gravatt/Chandler who wanna meet up in the morning at the caltex or something along Mt gravatt-capalaba road just before the turnoff to the gateway that'd be cool as well. Its a 45 minute drive out to Burpengary so we'd probably want to meet up around 7:50 and then hit the road by 8. Keep us posted.

Hi Ramyn,
Umm im not really if its THAT one exactly but there are TWO of them... very big "Service Centers" they are on both sides of the freeway pretty much facing each other. You cant miss them hey.

yeh its the 4th one down.
If you look at the map then press SATELLITE mode and scroll UP (north) a little mate and you will see both of them there on the freeway. HUUUUUUGE ones.

Hey Ramyn, I'm in Camp Hill, so i'm keen to meet at Caltex @ 0750. i'll give you a call on saturday and sort out the details. my number is 0423 344 064 if you need to call me.

no worries mate. the caltex isnt that big so you should spot us pretty easily. It also looks like bom have given us a good weather forecast for sunday as well with showers easing away saturday and a fine day on sunday!
Also, if anyone has got a UHF or walkie talkie, bring that along with you as well. Get onto a truckers channel and find out if we are gonna get a clear run up to Noosa not that we're going to be misbehaving or anything..

I have a 10 channel scanner.. however, i don't have the brisbane frequencies. Also, they tend to change frequencies from area to area.. Most of the major channels are the same though. If i remember to pack it, it'll come along..
Also, roughly how long will it take to get from the mall in brisy to burpengary?? Staying at chifley on lennons and don't really have that much of an idea about travel times around brisy..

from brissy cbd you'd be heading over kingsford smith drive? If so it'd take ya around 15-20mins i think to get onto M1 and then probably another 10 minutes or so to get to BP @ burpengary.

I was still hoping to possibly make it... but more noises started coming from the rear end tonight which has been the final straw... its now making knocking noises under acceleration
I fcuking hate my soarer
The only thing stopping me from selling it is the fact I'd get fcuk all for it

I might just drag it to the Morayfield BP meet... will suck seeing everyone else go from there... but at least if it dies, a tow-truck from there is affordable (as opposed to if it dies in noosa)
Tim why not leave your car at Morayfeild,hitch a ride with someone,that way you don't miss out on all the fun,you can pick it up on the way back to Brissy. Good to have you along Adam.

Hey tim, You can hitch a ride with me if you want to! I'm going by myself so would be nice to have someone with me to share the ride! Let me know tomorrow anyway!
Looking forward to seeing everyone there too! Had to wash the car... 6 hours driving in teeming rain didn't do the clean soarer and justice.. Looking forward to a nice entertaining drive through the mountains too.. I'm beginning to hate speedlimits..

Ramyn, next weekend if you are free, I'll take you up on the offer to check out the noise in mine, and I will bring the soldering iron and some resistors to adjust your blinker rate in yours in return if you like?

Well I hope the new owner and his boyfriend enjoy the car to its fullest and try not to get the interior too dirty after the photo sessions. Will miss your nice cruises James, sorry I couldn't be on this one.
