[Eddy]

I'm lost after 6 pages

Hoyhoy.
Looks like we've some driving to do in the coming weeks Guy.
You've got to come along.

[KI11Z]

and yes, another in agreeance! d fush un chops sounds like a damb good thing!

How are we going for numberzz?? do we have an estimate?

[shaneth]

KI11Z i think the first post which has a list of cars says 22. which would be a stellar turn out. but we know there is more seq people on here so we could hit the 25 mark.

[revnit]

the golf will be running like a dream for the cruise guys shes all sorted now cant wait.

[Golfer]

Just an update guys...

Shaneth and I did the test run yesterday and... OOH YEAH!!!

Awesome roads, views to die for, just a great drive. We have sussed out the route, and I reckon it's as good as it gets...

There are gonna be a few warnings we will make a note of on maps, as there are some one way bridges and some extremely steep descents (my brakes were almost on fire at the bottom of one of them) that need to be heeded and care taken...

We've also found potentially one of the best photo opportunities for a bunch of cars in Australia.

Get excited now guys. The dress rehearsal was a complete success (except we left so late it was dark coming into the last stretch) so with 22 cars instead of 2, it gonna be huge, so may I be the first to say less than a month to go now!!!

Cheers!!!

we had 25 in sydney in feb and that was minus 4 cars but it gets too unmanageable so many cars but all met at the gong so 25 is the number to beat

[shaneth]

Trip computer results.

Well it was a great drive yesterday. Unbelievable views, great roads all in all a lot of fun. Now for the big numbers, from milton to Tweed was 212kms, It took us 3 hrs with a couple of stops and a wrong turn (we promise it wont happen at the cruise) and worst fo all bad traffic heading home on friday arvo. Fuel consumption for the trip was a stagering 7.7l/100km. The trip from there to my brisbane was another hour and another 100kms.

It will be a great drive for everybody. With a few stops and the like. I will have bookletts made up like last time. Did everyone like it or am i wasting my time?

Shaneth the pamphlets where great just helps if i read it more carefully this time so i dont miss a turn As for the drive just checked my referdex to look at the roads and im drooling lmao.

Just wishing tax year was a month earlier

[Dr Spine]

Will anybody else be bringing along a UHF CB? I've recently bought a proper one to have in the car (talk to the trucks.....get "road reports" from them).

[shaneth]

Yeah mate i have a hand held one. Golfer does as well. Golfers going to lead and im bringin in the rear.

[Dr Spine]

Well I'll just have to sit somewhere in the middle then won't I. Truckies will often be a source of helpful information.

[DOHCDAVE]

OK! just found out that i'm not leaving to melb till the 6 so i'm in for the 3/6.
Should be a good day.
Look forward to seeing all of you there.

Cheers Dave
