Thats pretty good guys 22+ so far.

We need everyone who has not confirmed or decided to let us know and everyone needs to remind computerless friends and forgetful people that it is on.

Also if anyone in the list above has changed their mind, let us know, so we can publicly stone you

[schoona]

No mk4's ??

[rayray086]

Louis should be coming along, though riding shotgun!

[GTom]

Put me down on the probably list (85%) ...... someones gotta represent the GT TSIs

[Russ59]

Ok, the day is getting pretty close now, only 10 more sleeps I know the area very well but I'm just trying to work out from the map and directions exactly where to meet up. Can someone confirm if you are coming via Mt Ousley Road down past Wollongong Uni and veering onto the Northern Distributor which obviously as the name says heads North until Bellambi Lane where you turn left and head up approximately 1 km and then take a right onto the Princes Hwy and keep following until the bottom of Bulli Pass, where you then turn right again onto Lawrence Hargrave Drive and then just keep going till Stanwell Park. Confused yet ? I'm not I know exactly where I am

Can we have that as a map perhaps? Not everyone has a decent interstate directory or a proper sense of direction.

Don't follow my directions at this stage mate it will probably end up getting you lost. However there is an easier way than the Princes Hwy which will save on a lot of stop starting and traffic congestion. I can explain the way when everyone gets here if wanted !!

I've worked it out, I just used Google maps and the part I was getting confused with is when you come off the Mt Keira Road onto The Link Rd then take the ramp to the Southern Freeway and then the left turn, because according to the map you are actually turning onto Mount Ousley Rd at that time which after you have travelled along it for a little while then becomes the Southern Freeway.

So I would say after you have travelled along Mount Ousley Rd / The Southern Freeway for the 8 k's or so (and for those of you who are unfamiliar with the road it's usually crawling with cops, so watch your speed !) you would be taking the exit off to the left which will take you along past Wollongong High School on the left and about a half a km along on the right hand side of the Princes Hwy you have a Macca's, a Hungry Jacks and a Red Rooster and directly opposite is a new Holden Dealership. I might try to meet everyone somewhere in this area. Could someone confirm an ETA for me please. Sorry for any confusion caused !!
