| Hey guys read there are a couple of people interested in a meet. I'm thinking if it's easy for everyone to meet down at the docklands under the Bolte bridge @ 6:00pm 8th of April (Thursday night). We can either all bum out there grab a drink at one of the bars or go for a drive (sort it out on the night) Richard. |

| ill be in for a chat, not a fan of drinking and then driving with a bunch of modded cars. p.s. if anyone complains that "thier soarer isnt up to scratch" you have no excuse, im bringing my no-rings left soarer. could you post a google maps picture of the location as the docklands are notoriously bad for people getting lost. |

| I will probably be able to make it, but I'm not a fan of drinking though. Just coming for a meet. Not sure if I will be in soarer or supra. Anyway, I hope you guys don't mind me in either way. |

| I doubt you want to pick me up as I have a 6yo with me and the car wont be that clean after. As it's tomorrow night I doubt I can make it. I'm getting tires probably Friday so anytime after the weekend would be better for me. Anyway, have fun all. |

| well it was a rather poor turnout, but at least we got some good ideas down and hopefully will start some more regular cruises with the theory that if we have them people will come. in the end it was Richard and myself there, had a great chat for like 2 hours haha. love the airbags on it had a good night good to chat soarer and crap with someone, hopefully we can get some more people coming along. p.s. a dodgy phone pic of the cars, next time i will bring my dslr, as Iphone takes a REALLY bad night pic... especially bad as my dark car looks like its hiding haha! |

| usually on a weekend would be better too. A Thursday is kinda asking for not many people unless its a day before a public holiday. |

| Thanks Marc for making it down and sharing your wisdom, yours is one hell of a mean looking machine hope to see it when you get the new power plant implanted. Looking toward to the next meet and hopefully we get more of a crowd going. Rick- like Marc has mentioned generally Thursday are better for a bigger turn out, it's just that people would most likely head out for work drinks on Friday night, weekends generally people have places to go and poeple to see. I reckon we all try to aim for one meet a month, it will give us all a chance to pitch ideas, organise events |

| I'm keen for more regular meetups. Maybe once a month for dinner or something and a chat on an evening? |

| We should've set a time and place to meet up today, its a nice day and I feel like coming into the city today. Maybe the beach might be a better place to drive to? Anyway wherever I go it'll be fun. |
