sounds like someone is getting too old....

[CrUZida]

Very much so.
I've got better things to do than sit in a car for 3 days looking at squat.

[JustCallMeOrlando]

The man does have a point. While undoubtedly something I'll do later on again, I too can think of better things to do than drive the 3 days to Radelaide.

[[MISFIT]]

I agree. Have driven the nulla(bore) too many times. The novelty wears thin real quick. If ur takin a car i vote ship to Radelaide.

[Pimpin_1JZ]

I'd be doing the drive but not until next year.

u guys drive to slow if it takes u 3 days to get there!!

[CrUZida]

Refer to the fact I like my license.

It's nearly 2800km dude. Sure you can do it in less if you want to drive through the night (and risk roos). If you don't want to do that, you're driving 1400km a day, which even at 140kph is going to take you 10 hours.

I'm with Peewee, I'd like to a) get there, and b) get there with my license.

Hi,

Pity a friend of the family has left the Air Force. He could of sent a Herk over to you guys, load ya cars and shit and bring you to Sydney.

I'm pondering doing the flying thing.

Is there more info on toyotafest anywhere??

Toyota Fest Website

We usually make it into Sydney on the Friday prior to the Show day, crash someone's BBQ or make our own plans, Saturday is spent getting cars ready and crashing someone's BBQ again, Sunday is the car show and Lowenbrau dinner in The Rocks, Monday is a recovery day, Tuesday is open, Wednesday is drag night at WSID, and Thursday we think about heading home. Sightseeing, travel, freinds, family, parts chasing, ..., all get a run too within the week or so we're in Sydney usually.


For those of you considering it, I'm going to start looking into accom, airfares and freight again shortly - reply here if you're interested, so I can guage initial interest?!

[[MISFIT]]

Fuggin LOL assassin. But if we stay at 17 mite have to practise my chk chk boom.

[RA35GT]

Oops. I suck at the googling.

Sounds good. Now I am pondering freighting car to Adelaide as well.

How many days to drive from Adelaide to Sydney?

And after toyfest do you just freight car from sydney to perth? and fly back?

How many days all up is that?

[CrUZida]

2 days ADL to SYD (2 x 10hrs days)
4 to do it with some sight seeing.

[Gavatron]

If any of you guys get freighted to Adelaide, I'm keen to go over this year. Can arrange pick up at airport, then join the convoy.
