Canberra: Sunday drive? 29 May -- photos
 
I am suggesting this as a possible activity, based on one or two RX-8 visitors from Sydney (Revolver!!)

I suggest we meet at the Tradies car park in Dickson at 2pm, then drive out to Gundaroo for a coffee, followed by a drive out to Gunning then back into Canberra.
Who's interested??

To save me PM'ing everyone, can you pass this on to other 8 owners, and let me know

Tim

Bugger, Timbo. I'd like to meet the Sydney blokes, and see Tim Tam's new blue, but on Sunday I'll be halfway between Adelaide and Coober Pedy.

Have a great day!!

Ron

pepe 05-24-2005 12:03 AM

see what I can do...

Tim Tam 05-24-2005 12:22 AM

I'm in, I'll dawdle along behind at 4000rpm. Perhaps I could borrow Ron's car for the arvo? Shame there are no twistie roads out that way, but such is life.

Timbo, is Ben with the Black RX-8 on this list?

Tim Tam 05-24-2005 12:23 AM

And what happened to Steve with his Tit Grey?

Revolver 05-24-2005 12:41 AM

Timbo

Much obliged for setting this up.

I'll be solo but of course if any other Sydney guys fancy a drive to Canberra and back on Sunday that would be great.

Not being overly familiar with Dickson, what is the street address of the Tradies??

Look forward to meeting whoever makes it.

And Tim, of course we'll wait for you!! :p

Cool thanks.

See you Sunday arvo.

I wonder what the Hyatt will sting me for a wash and vacuum - can't have you Canberra guys think we're slobs in Sydney!! :D

Yes I'll be there in my Tit Grey :p
I s'pose we do need to differentiate with the new Galaxy Gray coming next.

Steve

For that one we'll abbreviate by chopping out the middle bit and calling it Gay Gray.

Revolver 05-25-2005 12:11 AM

I think I'm just gonna refer to my colour as gunmetal from now on!! :D :D

Ah, bad luck -- my son used to work in the Concierge dept there -- valet parking, but alas, no longer. What's more, he would have really appreciated the opportunity to drive an 8, as there's no frikin' way he's driving his Dad's car! :D:D

Shame. That reminds me - better check the mileage in case somebody there decides to do a Ferris Bueller on me!! :D :D

So...looks like we've got:
Revolver
Tim Tam
Sqz
timbo
pepe (maybe)
.....
.....

There's some people that inhabit the RX8club.com.au forum who I have PM'd (jk, ralph, Thai and X L ER 8) who I have PM'd but that forum was down for a while

Nothing from Jellybean or lucifuge.

Ron (Jellybean is in Adelaide, and Brett (Lucifuge) is off dreaming about the Hymee exhaust we're fitting tomorrow!!

timbo 05-26-2005 01:00 AM

I recall Jellybean say he was off soon.

So, twist lucifuge's arm....

We're going to meet up with X L ER 8 in Gundaroo

timbo 05-26-2005 02:42 AM

Careful Kalli -- we're all hot air up here (and cold feet, judging by this morning's -3C effort) ;)

Tim Tam now has his car, so rest assured he won't even notice you

But, if you're heading this way, you are most welcome :cool:

Seriously, come on up. I'm coming from Sydney to be there!!!

Tim Tam 05-26-2005 05:55 PM

Sunday : Early frost then fine and mostly sunny. Min: -1 Max: 15


Not bad by Canberra standards. At least it shouldn't be snowing.

Tim Tam 05-26-2005 07:02 PM

Yes, I'm the sort that's GOOD FOR YOU! :p

Tim Tam 05-26-2005 08:36 PM

Don't worry, pineapple juice can fix that. ;)

timbo 05-26-2005 09:17 PM

Settle down! ;)

Revolver 05-26-2005 09:40 PM

I think MissRX8 prefers the full fat version Tim!! :D :D

Lite versions with no flavour need not apply. ;)
