ToyotaFest 2006 - The Roadtrip

[Rallystanza]

Nice one!

Typical shenanigans that after last night I can't see ending.

[gianttomato]

Had a great night.

Great to meet you guys - some for the first time and some again! Much beer consumed, some wine, hopefully enough meat.

Screwdriver found tucked in behind Coffee's headlight!

Hey All!

Orlando here Well, he epic first leg of our journey is about to come to an end, currently shacked up in a mates house in Canberra. There has been much "good times" along the way. It's been awesome to catch up with everyone, thanks to everyone who came down to meet us.

Car is still using large quantities of fuel, but i'm managing a good 400km+ out of my tanks so ive not had to use the jerry can since before Melbourne. Car has successfully chewed two headlight relays. Not very cool, something I have to look into before I leave for home. Judging by the comments I'm getting about my headlights, the bulbs in there might just be some uber wattage

The Great Ocean Road absolutely kicked arse! Totally made the entire trip worth it. Aside from some annoying people holding us up, there was "exceptional times". Too bad the car was totally devoid of top end power, but coming onto boost out of the corners was well amusing. Glen still cant seem to get over the novelty factor that on the highway it's impossible for my car to go up an incline without pulling itself onto boost

Hmm, nothing else really to report. We're heading to Sydney today via Kangaroo Valley, so hopefully we're blessed with some good roads and some more good weather. It was amusing to note that as soon as we crossed the border from Wodonga to Albury, we had someone abusing us within about 50m, someone cut us off, and the road quality took a dive. Hehe, ahh well.

I shall make another report from Sydney. It's overall been a good trip, there have been some problems, and a little bit of stressing, but you have to expect that on a 4000km+ trip!

Adios.

Hehe, yeah the road does suck more between Albury and Gundagai, but it gets better after that. The little trip through Kangaroo Valley and Kiama (i assume) should be a good one.

Enjoy.
