Buggered if I know Trev and don't really care to be honest. Have organised and attended enough cruises to know that Sydneysiders are a precious lot and will only turn up if it suits them to do so (me included ).

My attitude to cruises is to post what I'm planning to do and if people want to join in, great. If not, that's their loss.

Noted, thanks mx5geek.

Almost got carried away and polished the car after washing it today and then common sense took over.

Some showers forecast tomorrow but hopefully they miss us.

Remembered the prize too. We might do a key draw for it if we can find a decent barrel girl.

Thanks Len.

Checked just now and there's no warning on either the site or the phone line (recorded message of road closures), so I'm assuming it's now open.

However, would be grateful if one of the southerners could check between 9.30 and 10.00, whilst I'm in transit.

After spending 13 hours yesterday helping a friend move all his worldly possessions halfway across the sydney metro area, karma decided to f*ck me over for no reason. I've injured my neck and can't turn my head more than a few degrees either way without wanting to die.

Woke up about an hour ago, and currently sitting here with an icepack and pain killing cream wishing it will get better in the next 20 minutes so I can run to the car and drive to Sutherland, but its looking unlikely...
So instead it looks like I get to sit here all day bored out of my brains.

There's no apology here, cos the only person missing out is me
Hope you guys have fun today. Bring back lots of pics.

The BOM weather map looked pretty clear to me today...let hope you guys (and girls) had a good cruise....and you got some good pics....

Thanks for organising another great cruise Dave,it was well planned and well executed. Thanks as well to all who attended,was good to see and meet you all and to see all the cars together. The cars all looked great (loved the 200sx and the evo too). Keep the weight down and hope to see you all on another cruise soon (or better still,at the track)..

Anyone got photos?

Hope you're feeling better WR. We missed your white car yesterday - I was hoping to have a good look over it.

Revolver

Thanks to everyone who attended yesterday. We ended up with about 15 cars, incl some mongrels - a 'smooth' 200SX, Evo, Integra, Len's Pug and a Lotus Exige (which unfortunately ran out of brakes and couldn't continue). Waldo even made a return from the dead in a disgustingly dirty storm blue car, hahaha.

Weather was kind to us and there were no mishaps. Len and I even had a nice little moderate go through some of the Nasho Park twisties before hitting traffic again. A lovely drive through the park and down the coast road, highly recommended if you haven't done it. A weekday is best if you want to play.

Tried to get around and say hello to you all before having to leg it home to mow lawns, etc before a shindig at our place that night. Apologies to those I missed. Red wine on a sunday night isn't a good idea! Well, in quantity anyway! ;-)

Anyway, saw plenty of cameras, so please post up some pics.

Hey, what happened to Mogley and the only good looking auto trans owner?? ;-)

Thanks for the cruise Dave , it was good to meetup with u all and catch up with the old skoolers (otto/Dave/Tuan/Len)....even if I had to make it to wollongong first .... It was a nice fun drive thru the nat park, on the way home in pack of 4 too (1 stormy blue/2 BB's/1Winning Blue) ...

OOoh and u werent wrong Dave , having only had 2 hours sleep the nite b4, i think you can let me off for having my car, not at its normal standard ... ooh and hence my sore head too ... oooh and jus mentioning some of the mongrels, they were nice too, lotus and s14 rear dish were very cool aswell.

shaketim

put me down for a group of 4 drive thru the nat park at any time, that was awesome fun , for a few brief moments
matt, your such a trackster, i saw you crossing those double lines to dodge wet bits of road when we were barely doin 50 on the way back


(tim, the other winning blu with QLD plates)

ZOOMBY

yeah it was a fun drive back , and it helps when there is no slower traffic around , which we encountered a couple times....although for most of the way back, we pretty much had the road to ourselves.....and even the Harley with 2 people on it, was giving it a hit when he saw 4 rx8's in his mirrors ....

Revolver

I have to go down to Wollongong for work on Friday.

Guess which way I'll be going, mwahahaha...

ZOOMBY

nice one mate, has to be one of my most favourite roads, thats for sure .... and it gives a new meaning, to the scenic route

Miss.Trish

haha HI DAVE!

oh well, theres always next time..
organise another sunday one!
ps- HOT EVO!

I think it's a condition called "obsessive compulsive" Tim. It's no fun. I wash my car at least once a week and actually drive it about once a fortnight. You would think it was a Ferrari or something with the care it gets, I am sure I like my car far more than a Ferrari owner cares or likes their car. I clean inside the exhaust pipes,and get this, this is the freakiest bit: I get so worried about the rubbish drivers around bumping into me that I bought a Honda Jazz that I drive around to the shops and A-B trips (actually 90% of the time) just so I can relax knowing that my baby is in the garage clean and safe waiting for the next trackday, cruise or special event! So bring it on people, roast me if you will but my mazda is my Ferrari for now until I get the real thing..
By the way, I have had some ****** comments from some RX8 owners when I am in the Jazz and I give them the thumbs up or tell them that I like their car in a car park. One guy with his handbag girlfriend said to me after I said I liked his car "well work hard son and one day you might have a car like this too", I didn't have the heart to embarrass him so I just smiled and said I would see what I could do.

Revolver

Hey, if you're too lazy to change gears I can see how getting out of bed on a Sunday morning would be difficult.

See you next time...

shaketim

hey, matt, anything less than obsessive compulsive just aint tryin hard enough, i`m the same with mine,(well not quite to the extent you maintain) i`ve got a eunos 30x to herb to the shops and leave parked at shopping centres there`s no way i`m putting roof racks or a wet wet suit in the rx8

wOng_R

anyone got photos?

Revolver

Hahaha, I'm not that bad but I gave a colleague a ride today and she asked if my car was new!! I coughed and said it was getting on for 4 years old.

BTW, didn't have time for the coast road and Nasho Park on the way down this morning but did so on the way back and had most of it to myself. Only copped traffic just before Audley Weir. Smokin'
