View Full Version : [VIC] Christmas Phillip Island Cruise 16/12/06
MissyK 11-08-2006, 09:13 PM Hey Guys,
As we already had discussed, we're going to cruisy down to Phillip Island on Saturday 16th of December! On that day we get to meet Julia!!
This will be our last cruise for 2006 so lets make it an awesome one!! (we'll kick off 2007 with the GOR ;))
I've suggested we are there by lunchtime say about 12ish.
I havent been to Phillip Island for many years, so I'm not aware of where to go and what to do etc, so If anyone could make suggestions of where to go in Phillip Island and the route we'll take to get there (sth gippy hwy??)- I'd really appreciate it :angel:
Meetup point will be in South East, somewhere near FWY entrance, so let me look into that.
Am allocating about 1.5hour drive, so we probably leave say about 10am or so ??
Just for time being lets brainstorm a bit as to where to go in Phillip Island to meet up with Julia also.
We got about a month of planning :angel:

MissyK 11-09-2006, 09:21 PM HEY would u guys like to do Kris Kringles??????????
I could arrange the names and pull them out (trust me!) and i'll let everyone know who their KK is. We can have maximum $. and exchange presents for christmas :)
:lol2:
auzoom 11-09-2006, 09:53 PM LOL, yeah I like that...trust the Greek accountant ;)
Sounds like a good idea Kal'
MissyK 11-09-2006, 09:56 PM okay, i'll wait for few more of you's to agree to it then start a new thread. I will give timeframe of 2 weeks prior to the cruise and work out whoz whoz KK and that way people are more sure if they will be attending cruise and still have time to find the gift :)
BTW did u guys know my initials are KK heheheheh
Brewer 11-10-2006, 03:13 AM Kal, KK could be a bit of fun.
Rotor Convert 11-10-2006, 03:44 AM HEY would u guys like to do Kris Kringles??????????

:lol2:
We'll be into KK, sounds like a fantastic group! WD was shocked when I said how many people could be coming! Looking forward to meeting you all. Should you wish to stay overnight we are racing at Phillip Island on the sunday. We will be thrashing a new piston engine...being built as we speak! :naughty: In a few years time I may take the 8 when it's out of warranty!! ;)
Counting down the days to our PI mini break we seriously need another short bit of time out!
Look forward to meeting you all and seeing your lovely cars in da flesh! :grouphug:
MissyK 11-10-2006, 05:38 AM Awesome, im glad u are all keen on the KK idea. I think it will be great fun :)
auzoom 11-10-2006, 06:32 AM I know someone who is going to be racing on sunday as well. Whats the actual event Julia?
Rotor Convert 11-12-2006, 01:54 AM I know someone who is going to be racing on sunday as well. Whats the actual event Julia?
It's a circuit sprint run by the Alfa Romeo Club of Vic. All clubs are invited but the last year the lions share of entries were Alfas.
Should be a good day as long as it's not too hot!
auzoom 11-12-2006, 03:35 AM Hmmm, Well this guy (who has been know to visit here occasionally - DavidM) drives a 350z.
At this stage we are looking like staying the night so we will definately come to the track and cheer you on :)
Andrew
Revolver 11-12-2006, 04:15 PM Hmm, I wonder :icon_no2: .
If I took the Friday off to drive down, I could do the cruise with the Vics on Saturday and drive home Sunday.
Are non-Vics invited???
auzoom 11-12-2006, 04:39 PM The cruise is all about saying hello to a non-victorian ;) The more 8's the better.
MissyK 11-12-2006, 05:21 PM No worries Dave!
Well the date is set, and heaps of notice time for you. Finding accomodation wont be an issue. I think i'll start looking into where we'll meet up for the cruise and which route we take. Once thats sorted I can look into finding accomodation for you thats nearby there or at least near someones place who can help you get to meet up point in 1 piece.

Hey, thanks Kall. :wavey:
I'll try to ease 'er indoors into the idea over the next week or so :suspect: - she mightn't be too impressed with two 3 day weekends away from her and the mini-terrorists in two months :uhh: .
If I can swing it, I'll probably doss with a mate who lives in Melbourne but all directions to meet up points, etc will be gratefully accepted.
MissyK 11-12-2006, 07:04 PM Which suburb is ur friend in ?
Just promise a big family christmas thingo............. lol and the Mrs should be ok
Or umm, how about saying u got seminar in Melb ? lol

Can't remember atm. I'll find out if I can come and let you know.
I'm taking a few weeks off over Christmas/New Year, so she's happy about that.
Otherwise, I got some good advice as a youngster - never lie to a woman :nono: . It's stood me in good stead ever since. The truth can be painful at times (and occasionally it pays to just keep your mouth shut) but it's always a million times better than getting caught out fibbing :spank: .
No, I'll just need to finesse my way into this one :angel: :kiss: :angel: :kiss: .
takahashi 11-12-2006, 08:13 PM I am actually like the idea of car museum.
Any food is good for me.
Revolver is more than welcome - let your ass down here mate. :rock:
I cannot wait....
greece is off for me... yay... and looks like i will still have the 8 by then
so hi hi to the penguins ;-P
MissyK 11-12-2006, 08:55 PM Awesome guys
I'm very flexible with where to go, what to do there. We'll start putting together an itinery very soon :)
lolol Eric...... damn u, sell the 8, i mite need u to drive mine hahahahahahahahha shh LoL

Mate you are more than welcome to stay at my place if you can make it down. We have plenty of room and would be more than happy to provide shelter for you and the wife.
We also live close to where the Hume meets the Western Ring road so very easy to get to once in Melbourne!

It just so happens that the Sydney 'branch' of Tiffany's is located about 50 metres from my building, but NO! I'm hoping to use some of the equity/credit gained from the house and car without having to get into bling too. :Freak_ani
I'll test the waters later this week and see if the sharks are biting... :mdrmed:
Revolver 11-15-2006, 11:28 PM Good news Mexicans. :)
Dipped my toe in the water today...okay, I kinda dived in...and found only dolphins. :angel:
Request for leave pass is receiving favourable consideration. Not fully franked and stamped yet but the marital bureaucracy is in motion and no bribes have been solicited...yet. :uhh: :mdrmed:
yellowrx8inoz 11-16-2006, 01:35 AM Cool! Will be great to see you, mate!

You too Will - can't get enough of the yellow hotness.
Hey, good idea for the avatar but it might be better in a signature so people can read the mug. Eric? Whaddya reckon? Custom sig for Will on the cards?
MissyK 11-16-2006, 02:44 AM Sounds good Dave!!
jormatom 11-16-2006, 08:09 AM Hey Guys
Very good chance I will be able to come along with the boys. :ylsuper:
My wife needs time on the weekend to finalise pre-sentence reports for court on Monday the 18th, which is my son Matthew's 9th birthday. :)
I have convinced her to have his birthday party on the 17th instead of the 16th and I will take the boys out for the day on the 16th so she can have the day at home by herself to work. (What a shifty bastard I am) :Freak_ani
So it looks like I will hooking up the PS2 in the back seat to keep the boys occupied on the drive to Phillip Island. Is anyone else bringing their kids along?
Kal, put us down for KK as well.
Cheers
Greg
auzoom 11-16-2006, 04:02 PM Greg,
I will be bringing my 2 offspring and we will most likely be staying the night.
Cheers
Andrew
jormatom 11-16-2006, 04:44 PM I didn't think about staying the night.
It might me best to do that then drive home Sunday morning for Matty's birthday party.
How many are staying and how many are coming back the same day?
Revolver 11-16-2006, 04:44 PM Woohoo! I'm in! :rock:
Some further wheedling last night did the trick. :mdrmed:
Put me down for KK Kall.
I'll have a think about accommodation. Once I know where I'm staying I'll be in touch to get directions to the meet up point, etc.
Operation Mexico is go. :)
MissyK 11-16-2006, 05:07 PM Awesome guys :)
jormatom 11-16-2006, 06:54 PM Hey Julia
You should come to Melbourne more often. Look at the turnout! :ylsuper:
Let's see if we can get to 20. :Eyecrazy:
Greg
MissyK 11-16-2006, 07:00 PM we always have good turn outs..... williamstown cruise had 15.... photoshoot at docklands had 18, (2 didnt show up, so would have been 20, and if few others had able to come would have been 21-22 easy)
auzoom 11-16-2006, 07:33 PM And just think, next year is only going to be better ;)

Yes Kal, you deserve credit for this as well. I was just being sarcastic. :bootyshak
If I get you for KK I'm getting you a "Social Function Organiser Of The Year" trophy. :kiss:
MissyK 11-16-2006, 07:40 PM I wasnt asking for credit lol I was just stating that we always have great number and great bunch of people attending.
Why does everyone want me as KK? lol

It's amazing!! You guys are awesome. My 8 family...the WD is amazed at how many people are coming! Next time we will bring the 8! Maybe it could be the Annual end of year event??
Anyhow we are staying at the Coes Caravan Park...$80 per night for a cabin with ensuite! That'll do us!
Getting really excited now!
:ylsuper: :ylsuper: :ylsuper: :ylsuper: :ylsuper: :ylsuper:
Rotor Convert 11-16-2006, 07:58 PM For those that stay for the Sunday I make a solemn promise to drive the car like it's stolen and give the spectators some value!
Car is getting a facelift of the engine kind and so am looking forward to getting it out on the track...
Looking forward to razzing some of the Victorians up. Last year they were too scared to get out on the track with me!!! I not so scary really....just fast and take no prisoners...
BTW the museum is really good...we did it last year and I really enjoyed it...there's also boat cruisey stuff.
There are some great places to eat...and also there is the historic PI circuit that's now roads....we drove it last year and still found some faint markers of the track etc. Lots of history over there.
I am bringing my camera to take photos, can't promise they will be any good though.
Cheers
Julia...
YOU GUYS ROCK.....Kal thanks for getting this sorted you are a gem!
takahashi 11-16-2006, 09:20 PM Julia, I will try my best to convince my wife that i could stay at PI. But with a newborn it is always hard.
I am travelling solo that day I am afraid :sad:

MissyK 11-19-2006, 09:24 PM Bumpity Bump
I'm searching for a decent meeting spot to fit the amount of cars we have. So anyone else want to come??
Revolver 11-20-2006, 06:18 PM Spoke to MACCAA yesterday and he's definitely coming too, so I'll have a co-driver to ease the long haul down and back.
Our plan is to leave early Friday morning and get to Melbourne hopefully by mid-late afternoon. We'll overnight in Melbourne and meet up with you guys in the morning for the cruise (although I may be open to Friday night shenanigans after I've had a rest :cwm27: ).
We'll come back to Melbourne on Saturday after the cruise to knock some of the travel time off the return journey to Sydney. I'm thinking of an alpine route for the return to escape the boredom of the Hume but I'll need to discuss that with my erstwhile co-pilot.
I'll let you know where we're staying as soon as I've worked that out as we'll probably need some guidance to the meet-up point (don't think my pocket Gregory's covers Melbourne! :hahano: ).
Subject to the Vics extending their kind invitation, we're happy to have some company from other NSW people who are dumb enough to think this is a good idea. :mdrmed:
auzoom 11-20-2006, 06:44 PM Dave, i would have thought going back via the coast would have been quicker?
When you know where you are staying the night before let us know and we will organise for someone to do a drive past and get you on the way to the meet.
Cheers

You might be right. Nothing settled yet anyways. We'll have a look at it and work something out.
Thanks for the offer of a driveby ( :eek: :rofl: ). Will let you know in due course.
MissyK 11-20-2006, 07:52 PM Once I work out where we meeting................ On weekend ERIC will come over and we'll go find somewhere, after he washes me car... and cleans the interior of my car hahahahahahha righhhhhhhhttttttttttttttttttttttt
jormatom 11-20-2006, 08:11 PM I owe Dave a "drive by" from my visit to Sydney, so I'm more than happy to do it.
Subject to how tired they guys are, we should get together on Friday night and show them some good ol' fashioned southern hospitality.
I'm not sure if I am free, but will check with the boss at home.

Don't go to too much trouble. After the drive down, I can't see us being out till all hours, especially given the day planned for Saturday. After all, I'm not in my early 20's anymore and I'm bloody sure Len isn't! :p: ;)

Looking forward to putting faces to the names.

Now that's gotta be a quote from a war weary soul.
I have to agree with you though...me not happy at having to drive smelly race car over to Melbourne with CIG locker and no cruise......although I was told if I book my own flight I will be collected from the airport..... :Freak_ani Nice but no.
Then tried the train but apparently no cars on trains to Melbourne at the moment..something about upgrades???
Oh well might have to tuff it out....but might book a nice swanky hotel..... :mdrmed: Get WD to pay :ylsuper: then me might be happy!
You guys are awesome by the way...really looking forward to meeting you all!
jormatom 11-27-2006, 03:08 PM Hey Julia
You can always get your revenge by driving into Melbourne, the fashion capital of Australia, and getting yourself some heavy duty retail therapy at WD's expense! :ylsuper:
We love watching our "brothers" suffer.

timbervolt 12-05-2006, 06:57 PM Hey everyone
New guy here. I'd love to come on the PI cruise now. I've been waiting on the go ahead from my friends. I have some friends coming from the UK so it will be a good way of going to see the penguins. They don't yet know it's an RX-8 cruise, just that it is a car club cruise. They'll be surprised.
If it's not too late, I'd love to be in the Kris Kringle pool too.
I haven't seen the details of this trip on this or the KK thread. Is this PM'ed?
auzoom 12-05-2006, 07:15 PM timbervolt, myself or MissyK will PM you tonight.
Rotor Convert 12-05-2006, 07:37 PM Yay this is going to be awesome! I would love to have a ride in some of the modded 8's to see what the changes make the car handle like!! For me it's going to be like a kid in a lollie shop!! Counting down the days!!!

Rotor Convert 12-11-2006, 03:31 AM Hey there,
for once in my life I am packing early so we can get an early start Thursday morning.
Had a lovely day at work today...went out for lunch ...then got the car dynoed and then took the boss to the airport. He's always a bit nervous driving with me now as I took him round a corner a might bit fast making him grab for the F8%k handles and go very pale....we made it to the airport with him commenting on how relatively slow I went round corners!!! :rofl:
Looking so forward to meeting you all, and seeing some modded 8's and many 8's in one place for that matter...this will be my first big group of 8's! You guys are awesome! Did think of driving mine over as well....but decided to leave him at home....will do so when the train is back up and taking cars though! Then we could come on a cruise with you guys and I'll only put Melbourne k's on it.
I have packed my camera so hopefully Ezzy might take pity on me and show me how it works, apparently it's quite a good one but all I know how to do is point and shoot and hope I got a good shot!
Anyway better get off and do some tea or the WD will be in a mood.....
Ciao' guys seeya soon!!
MissyK 12-11-2006, 09:29 PM Hey Everyone
We are booked for 30 people. I kinda estimated. Im assuming 30 people give or take a few anyway. So everything is set!!
please please please if on saturday u cannot come or running late, give us a call!! Nothing more frustrating then not knowing whats happening and waiting around for people who dont show up. or we leave and people show up and we're not there.
anyway, c u's all there.

loveyoualllongtime
Cromax 12-11-2006, 10:37 PM I'll give you a call when I get out of the fishbowl on Saturday...
... I'm guessing I'll get out of there at 2 earliest ... so it should be easy for me to get down there by 3. If y'all are still down there of course.
MissyK 12-11-2006, 10:50 PM probably Nate.
I know a few people are staying in Phillip Island over nite. So few people mite be hanging around till late.

Rotor Convert 12-12-2006, 07:14 PM Well the Alfa has been tuned within an inch of it's life.....we are starting to pack and I can't wait to leave work today!
We are going the back way as there are apparently a lot of police around Stahl and Arrarat.... :Freak_ani we will be fair game for sure. So going the back way through the southern grampians and up to Dunkeld etc. Staying in Melbourne Thursday night and then off to PI on the Friday arvo.
People please pray that your smokies don't notice us......roll cage....race tyres and noise all to me = defect and I will cry big time if that happens! Running the gauntlet is Bruce's specialty...he reckons if we get caught we will just fly back and get the 8! :ylsuper:
It's going to be a bit like the cannonball run I think!!!
Can't wait to catch up and meet you all. We are so thrilled that so many of you can come and look forward to seeing your lovely cars. For those of you staying overnight if you come to the track you will see the full use of a piston engine!!!! :rock: :rock: Me likes to drive fast on this track hope to hit over 200kph!!!

its awesome you're coming all the way from Geelong!! what a champ!!!!!!
Why thank you Kall. We're looking forward to meeting you all.
Anyone know how long it takes to get to Sorrento from PI? The last ferry to Queenscliff is at 6PM. It'd save the long haul back around the bay - no biggy if we have to drive back tho.
BTW after all the elbow grease yesterday, I got home from work this arvo and did the usual quick lap of the car to check for seagull bombs (this carpark is notorious). Bugger me!!! Looked like a bunch of the b#stards had lined up along the left hand side to admire their bums in the nice shiny black paint - AND THEN MACHINEGUNNED IT. Geez the neighbours got an earful of "colourful Aussie lingo" and my 2 laboradors even skulked back from their welcoming position at the gate!!!
Anyway it's clean again now, but I'm working at this site again tomorrow. Anyone got a gun I can borrow?? Payback's a bitch..............
PS. Thought for the day. Imagine if cows could fly............................................... ....
Cyall Satdy,

Revolver 12-13-2006, 03:38 PM Well wont be washing your car in my little red speedo's if you ain't watching mate! I bought them especially for this too :uh:
:uhh: :sweatdrop :scared: I'm starting to understand why Deliverance was set in the deep south...
If I see a banjo, I'm bolting back up the Hume! :mdrmed:
ILIV48 12-13-2006, 04:22 PM If I see a banjo, I'm bolting back up the Hume! :mdrmed:

It's these sort of comments that incite crowd violence at football matches.
Have we arranged security for the cruise? :wink2: Dave might need it.
MissyK 12-13-2006, 05:40 PM MACCAA is coming to hold Daves hand!!
ILIV48 12-13-2006, 06:33 PM MACCAA is coming to hold Daves hand!!
I thought that was to keep him warm those 2 nights. After all they don't call it a queen bed for nothing :inlove: :o:
Of course I only jest... MACCAA begged for a seperate room at the other end of the house with a door lock! :scratchhe
OK I think that is enough from me. I have to go prepare a car wash kit. With a little bit of luck we might be able to wash some of that grey off. Never know there might be one of the nice colours under there somewhere :rofl: :biggthump
MACCAA 12-13-2006, 09:43 PM Our security is the least of your problems....
ILIV48 12-13-2006, 10:08 PM Our security is the least of your problems....
That's for sure. All you need do is ask Danielle... She has them listed :sad:
ILIV48 12-13-2006, 11:18 PM I will be away from my computer until tomorrow now so all joking around aside both you guys have a safe drive down and we shall see you late tomorrow.
MissyK 12-13-2006, 11:39 PM see u saturday stu xoxo

Brewer 12-16-2006, 07:59 AM Awesome Day!! Thanks to the organisers and everyone who showed up. Cheers
good work missy.... havent laughed this loud at this hour of the night in ages....
Vangelis 12-16-2006, 05:29 PM Sorry mate - greg's got first refusal already! :ylsuper:
Just add me to the list...
yellowrx8inoz 12-16-2006, 05:43 PM Hmmmm first outing report that's got more pics of the people than the cars - I like it!! (even though I seem to be the 'butt' of most of the jokes LOL)
Not quite sure what eric's doing here but he seems to be enjoying it...

ILIV48 12-16-2006, 07:35 PM Hmmm... I can see now they call me tubby for other reasons than the car :sad:
ILIV48 12-16-2006, 07:41 PM The reindeer has a better right foot!
Oh dear... Now that is just nasty :tear: :tear:
I cannot believe you forgot to mention the drivers weight saving there too :pat: :o: :bigok:
takahashi 12-16-2006, 07:47 PM No you a booby and the car is tubby.... so booby in tubby :hahano:
ILIV48 12-16-2006, 08:02 PM Stu & Danielle! What can I say.. we love you guys - NEVER LEAVE US!!
Thanks for that. We both appreciate it.
Honestly it is spending time with you guys that has me seriously thinking about spending the money and buying another 8 again. It makes no financial sense at all and to trade Tubby would be a hard thing to do but it has an appeal that's hard to resist.
Everytime you guys make us feel so very welcome and more than just part of the group... Especially for the provisions to include us in OZ Renesis. I just hope such provisions do not cause you future problems with all you want the club to be!
A better group of people to call my friends I doubt I could meet!
Maybe a tag line for OZ Renesis logo could be something along the lines:
'It's not just the car, it's the people'
Cheers guys
auzoom 12-16-2006, 10:45 PM Hopefully Stu, if you go back to an 8 it will be hot chicks winking at you instead of 400lb truckies.
Ohh and I CANNOT believe I forgot to say thanks to Mr and Mrs Convert for coming all the way from Adelaide. I might just get away with ir seeing as she will be so overcome with fumes :)
Eirc, Will, great photos and Kall, great story.
MissyK 12-17-2006, 12:31 AM Hmmm... I can see now they call me tubby for other reasons than the car :sad:
Oh pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
Ask Danielle...... we dont like skinny skinny boyz!! Just like u men like a lil meat on the women, we like a bit of meat on the man! Plus it makes us feel better to know u guys are bigger xoxo loveulongtime yo
MissyK 12-17-2006, 12:33 AM Thanks for that. We both appreciate it.
