upper greenhill FTW!

i came round one of the bends with that flimsy aliminum 'oh fuk if you hit me im goanna snap and ur goanna roll off the cliff' guardrails on the edge of the cliffs there quite quick once and ran smack into a roadblock

some tool had rolled a mazda 121 off the cliff above whilst going up someones driveway, 15m down the cliff and landed upside down on upper greenhill road.

ouch!

ive always thought twice about that road now.. hehe

greenhill road FTW!

i was cruising it at night once coming down from summertown and there is this one beautiful long straight bit. I was gunning it down the straight - with my high beams on obviously. then just as i get closer to the next corner another car comes around it, so i flick my high beams off. As i do this i realise i cant see shit infront of me! i knew i was fast approaching the corner which has a nice big freakin rock there! jump on brakes and get high beams on just in time to get around the corner. scared the sh!t outa me though. but i still love the road. someone post up here when u are cruising up there and i will join ya all for sure.

What date are you guys passing through/leaving SA?

**TTMX83** · 20-09-2006, 10:13 PM

I was told about this trip and seeing as you guys are stopping in Warrnambool, where I live, it would be good to catch up if you like.

Cheers Brad.

Thats me, I'm in Warrnambool, don't have any bloody room at home though

Unless you want to camp in the back yard....

Matt, these Perthers are arriving in SA on the 25th & we're leaving the 26th, headed for Warrnambool.

TTMX83, I have no idea where we're staying in Warrnambool, last I heard JCMF was sorting out a motel for us all there. Dunno where it'll be, & I don't know what time we're arriving, I'm sure we'd be up for dinner somewhere + an ale or two.

**BlackSupra** · 20-09-2006, 11:57 PM

Im pumped.

But i have sooooooooo much work to get done so i can palm off all my crap for 2 weeks onto some poor guy at work.

**BigWorm** · 21-09-2006, 12:08 AM

Goddammit, I'm gonna have to tidy up my house because of you bastards, NOT HAPPY!!! You think you have so much work to get done? This place is still recovering from one wrecked MX73, a 1J into MX73 conversion, a 2J into MX83 conversion, plus the constant/on hold Celica project.
It's also prolly about time we finished unpacking the boxes in the spare room from when we moved in here.....
