Anyone bringing a ford along, and a HSV along, then we could have Madza RX-8's, HSV R8's and Ford XR-8's :D Sorry to say the F word - LYTNING might withdraw. hehehe.

 

HYMEE

since you are heading to MT tambourine , i will meet up with you guys at the crossroads .

I WILL PHONE YOU LATER OR E-MAIL ME , were you want to meet.

CHEERS
MICHAEL

 

Hymee, you can pencil in Tony (friend and fellow Rx8 owner ). I have mentioned the cruise to him and he is keen to come along.

I will update him of the meeting place.

 

Michael, I suppose you can meet us wherever. Sort of an unusual request though, since the cruise details were open for discussion for some time. I'm not sure where "the crossroads" is, or if we go past it, or when exactly.

The BP would be an ideal place to meet. A good bit of the cruise is before Tamborine anyways. We are not simply heading down the M1 from Stapylton.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

T & I will be there.

Should I take the Astina seeing it is a Mazda Cruise?

GP.

 

I have a friend with a supercharged s2000 that is interested in the drive.

He will confirm with me on Saturday.

I hope you are ok with another make turning up

 

No problems at all from my perspective. I take my RX-8 on a LS1 cruise's. They are welcome to come as well.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Yes Jizz, you should.

I'll see you at Harry's but can't make the cruise.

 

The better half and I will be trying to make this one. Might even make a run for a radio

Won't bother cleaning it 'til we get back then...!

 

Nice to hear that, Haddock. I was wondering where you had been. Nice to get together with true enthusiasts like you and your better half.

Should be a great day.

 

First page updated with Maps and UDB references.

Might have my cat-back back on, and a brand new stainless one in a box to show off :D

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Hymee,

Quick note on some of my invites.
Tony (red rx8)
David (yellow S2K)

skc

 

skc,

Great, thanks for that.

This is going to be a great cruise if everyone turns up in these numbers.

8 RX-8 all together is going to be a great site!

3 x Red
3 x Black
2 x Yellow

Now there is a picture waiting to happen to rival those Melbourne boys Although the great "map of colours" makes the Qld boys look a little bland compared to the great Sydney Matrix.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

I have a mate with a 200sx that would like to tag along, is that ok Hymee?

 

et,

No worries. He can join in. Hey - I don't own the cruise It is for you guys.

Cheers,
Hymee.

PS - As long as he keeps his BOV quiet [img]www.hymee.com/smilies/sm_poke.gif[/img]

 

As I have said previously I cannot come as "Mrs Smooth" is doing a triathlon but I may well call in at the BP on my down the coast to see "Mrs Smooth"

Hope to see you there

[edit id=Hymee]Removed erroneous post[/edit]

 

Hey guys,

It would be great if someone could bring along a digital video camera if they had one. We could post the first Australian Cruise Video!

If you do have one and want to bring it along, I'll have my laptop to download to. But I don't have any firewire on my laptop, only good old USB if that helps.

I have some hosting space, so I can host if needed.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

HYMEE

I am bringing my canon MV 750i video / digital camera , just purchased ,its the latest video camera from canon however i am no expert on how to use it .

Still tryng to come to terms with the manual .

Don't forget to fill up before you leave. I'll be filling at southside meeting place.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Sorry, I am a bit cheeky today. And I haven't taken my happy pills yet.

 

And any more cheek from L&L and I'll remove the smilie reference to you.

 

L&L, you big spender - you missed one:

10. A full tank of BP Ultimate which will probably be over $1 per litre by the time we get there!
