SA CRUISE 25th FEBUARY

[ashbox]

Not necesserily speeding but if a cop see a few cars together and thinks that they are taking corners faster than what they shouldd be then, who knows wat he/she will do?

[Gavatron]

What can he/she do?

It's not going to be an overly fast paced cruise. Lots of people that may come might drive cars that are not suited to squirting through the hills. EG the assortment of Cressidas, Aristos, Crowns and other barges (Perm, Jessie, Chris, Matt, myself), old stock Celicas (Gez, Chris) and god knows what else.

In regards to when it should be, I reckon we should wait till after Toyoshow. I'm going to it. Don't know about the rest of you guys. Maybe a weekend or 2 after that?

i'll be at toyoshow. after that i think the cars going to be rested while i fix a few things on it.

Oi! your forgeting old stock corollas!

and hills is definatly they way to go, as long as they're not very steep!! ...
that map looks good hopefully the license will hold out long enough! so sundays are good for everyone? coz i work all day saturdays. YAY, finaly organisation!

OK, went for a test run of the route above this morning in the Twinky. From the starting point at Newton Shopping Centre to Gumeracha was ~30km. The BBQ's there look good, in a park with plenty of parking, although it's dirt parking.

From there to Lobethal was between 10km and 15km, though it is quick cos it's a pretty much straight 100 zone.

From Lobethal to the finish point, which I decided should be the Foodland at the top of Magill Rd, taking the Norton Summit route from Lobethal and down Norton Summit Road (cyclists should die) was another 25km.

All up it was ~75km and took me 1hr15, though I was close to the speed limit the whole time and the Twinky handles A LOT better than the Crown. So on the actual day it will take longer.

If all this sounds OK to everyone we should start working out a date. Maybe Sunday the 10th or Sunday the 17th of February?

the 10th or the 17th is good for me. cant do saturdays though, got work all day.

[Gavatron]

Saturdays are normally no good for me. Sunday would be better.

[MWP]

Any day is good for me
Itll be good to take the Corona for a good run in the hills.
... if youve got a CB radio, dont forget to bring it.

Hills cruises are THE only good cruises. And how is a cruise illegal? As long as no one speeds we will be fine.
..........

looks like a good cruise. ill be up for that with or without rejetted carbs

[Gavatron]

Been thinking about what time we should have it. Maybe a 9:30/10am start. That means definitely at the BBQ spot by 10:30/11. Could then have a late breakfast/brunch as Jessie suggested in the first post. Bacon and eggs on the barbie with rolls or something.

[PlacentaJuan]

i like the bacon and eggs idea, barbies allways take too long and people allways eat quicker when its breakfast.

any day would be cool unless i am working we are changine shifts on the 7th of feb so im not sure what i am doing after that.....

[Starfire]

Sounds good guys.

Post up on Toyotacarclub.net when you have the details - may as well get some more people in on this one.

Cheers,
Terry
