Melbourne Cruise 19/6/05 SUNDAY
 

Well looks like Sydney and Brisbane are cruising on the 19th so here is a link to an Ausrotary Multi Club cruise to Geelong Anglesea and then back through Bacchus Marsh/Melton
Let's let the 8's make there presence known ;)

Wow 25 cars with a possible extra 15 in one city :eek: I don't even think that there is 25 RX-8s on this whole forum.... I hardly ever see RX-7s anymore - do they all live in Melbourne?

No they are not all FD RX-7s and I don't think there is any RX-8 there. Most of them are RX-3 and the FCs. I doubt I will like to join the hoons. PLus I am actually in Sydney that morning.

Cmon Taka let's remember it is the properties of the rotary engine that we love as do all the "hoons" at ausrotary and without all the previous rotaries we wouldn't have our beloved 8's :)
The sounds of all the brap brap brap rotaries cruising down the highway together is an experience not to be missed :D

Cant make it anyway... it is my dad's birthday.

Nor can I, going for Blue Belt on 19th :rolleyes:

Sowwy xatnep

No Probs Taka I saw you were in Sydney anyway :)
There is no way I am going to get in the way of an almost blue belt ( I am not that brave) Goodluck MissRX8 and naturally Lock and Load will be expecting photos of you with your new belt :D

I will be going along on the cruise and just posted the info in case someone feels like blowing the cobwebs out. It is being organised by the ausrotary crew not me . I am still deciding which rotary to bring :p

Working that day. Convenient as well, seeing as I live in Melton.

I cant make it as my son has a tennis tournament (and I am meeting Taka).

Xatnep, whats the other rotary? I just happened to have picked up another R100 shell and its sitting around Draco's way in Sth Melton.

Andrew

You are meeting me this Sunday 12th right?

That weekend is the one after this.... :confused:

taka

I sometimes wonder why I put my comments in print for the whole world to see...Yes you are right Taka. We are meeting this sunday..So I am free for NEXT Sunday...Might head over.

Andrew

Rotary mad one has RX8, RX7 S4 NA Coupe, RX7 S4 Convertible Turbo :D
Weather forecast dictates choice of rotary for the day or company going along ;)

mmmmmmmm S4 convertible!!!

Mmmmmm S4 Convertible MANUAL TURBO Mmmmmmmmm
Originally it was an auto turbo YUCK but I Lurv having the manual. For a small time I put the RX8 gearknob on just so I could have 6 gears instead of 5 but have now reverted to a S5 5 speed knob ;)
By the way money for stickers transferred Friday so should be in your account Tuesday, sorry I ended up working all week instead of relaxing in front of the computer :D

So far the cruise looks like having 40-60 cars should be a real BUZZ to hear them all fired up.

Gary come to our track day with either your 8 or S4 Turbo....

How are you able to get out on the race track on a Tuesday.

Stuart and myself will go... it is on the 19th July

Andrew will give you an SMS tonight regarding meeting place tomorrow. I reckon Kew junction or High street will have good cafe or a buncheon.

Yes... Yes do come and join us Gary!

Track day ???
I went to events O'Neill and left my details but no emails or contact other than the auto response thank you email. When Where How much Tuesdays are no problems
More info please :D

The cost of the day is $285.00. Fot all the other info and help with contacting Luke I am very sure when Taka see's this he will give you a helping hand.

Really worth it though, and the more rx8's we have from here the more fun the day will be!

I will post a link and sign up detail the moment I received the paperwork from O'Neill.

Luke usually sends the invite 3 weeks from track day so I think I will get it next week. I have hold up some places already so everyone can guarantee an entry :p

Gary. Any question. Ask me.

I know better than Luke how to run his day :p You will notice on the day... j/k ;)

$285 is with instructors, helping hands, Michellin boys checking your tyres, bonus sit in rides (I have been on an Exige, Noble twin turbo, and the Chelham ?? spelling), BBQ lunch (very nice), water and ice-cream (I did asked for that last time) provided.

The day runs in open sessions ...

So did you guys perform your tri-state area cruise day obligations?? :D

Heard there was sooooooooooooooo many cars. Did u go Gary??

It was a really good turnout. Rick and I turned up to fly the RX8 flag . There were about 40 cars turned up with the weather looking a bit overcast however NO RAIN all day and some hints of sunshine later in the afternoon. Please note weather Qld people, but I did like the wet weather RX8 photos from Qld.
All eras of rotaries were there with a lovely little r100 some rx2's 3's 7's etc.
Biggest news of the day was the 3 car collision 2 minutes into the cruise. Oops :D
Use the previous link, then go to the past events section to see some nice pictures
I couldn't do the whole cruise but it was great to listen to the brap brap brap of the early rotars and witness the amazing performance of our rotary brethren :)

Cool, thanks xatnep. :)

2 red rx8s made their appearance there hey gary?? :D
