Just got to swap a shift... so a definite maybe?

OZECHO is meeting @ the Hill Rd Homebush Ferry Wharf (CNR Burroway Rd & Hill Rd)

[MR22ZZ]

it's a good idea EGG but too many changes could get confusing, I think we'll just stick with the car park opposite P6, you can always bring the OZECHO boys round...

What time are you meeting?

But went on a Reccy tonight, and roads look very clear other then some roadworks around Shoalhaven Heads but I've modified the route to compensate... The only piece of road we are doing twice in the stretch between Kiama and Gerringong (about 10 Kms) so pretty good... and a nice blend of twisty mountain passes and some nice comfortable cruising sections (and great views), some hairpins I even had to get into 1st for they were so tight, should be a lot of fun if we get a free run!!! :D :D

2 days to go....... This cruise is THIS SUNDAY!!!!

if everyone shows this will be a great cruise...

The meeting place is still the car park opposite P6 at 9:30 (the REDLINE guys are setting up early so even though we are meeting before them there will be quite a crowd in P6 at the same time... could make for some good pics)

I'll try to be there early (9-9:15 depending on traffic) so look out for my Blue baby.

we will leave at 10 SHARP!!!

[BlackRolla]

There's still a scraping noise when decelerating. everything is good with gear changing. This scraping/grinding noise has been there almost from day 1. Couldn;t hear it properly before the gear selector cable was replaced. Now that they have fixed things 1 at a time it has come down to the last option and they now have to pull apart the gear box. This is at Western Toyota in Guildford. They are the best man. They are willing to listen to my issues and attempt to fix it. Not like the other Toyota departments palming u off and say it's coz of ur driving. They have fixed a lot of my issues that Warren Toyota couldn;t fix. I recommend giving these guys a try if there's problems that couldn;t be fixed.

[EGG80X]

sorry guys, the ozecho member were a bit shy, so we decided to stay local today

but it was nice to meet u guys

Cheers EGG80X was good to meet you and the other echos there, it was mad there though with the REDLINE cruise...

But we had a great day, 6 of us cruised down to Wollongong and met Zee and then 5 of us continued to drive on a few of the mountain passes, just finished a little while ago...

Here's some pics for you all...

[ZEEROLLA]

Had a great time and thanks to Dylan for organising all that! We went to places i have never been like the 7mile beach, its a beauty and love all the Togue driving! Great pics too, next up Wakefield Park! :D

Also nice to meet some of the guys for the first time, like Bill and "Influx" :) Too bad you guys couldn't join us for the rest of the cruise, but maybe at Wakefiled Park next time! Influx's and Dave's Stivos might look mean on the street but can they keep up with me on the track? :P

Edited March 14, 2005 by ZEEROLLA

[influx]

my cars is being done for the track not for the street so i should hope so my car gets around wakefield pretty fast as should dillons :P

[MR22ZZ]

I'll still wait for the baseline run before I make changes, but if we get out for a track day soon the mods will come to me quicker... ;)

Thanks Dave for leading me home, i was so nackered by the end of it i would have driven in the wrong direction. :D

nice roads and great weather, couldn't ask for much more. (except for less Honda CRVs)

Forgot to mention the Motorbike guys at the Robertson Pie Shop...

Had some nice corners (when the sunday drivers weren't around), really enjoyed the swamp road too :D

[Danthuyer]

Look like you guys had fun :)

nice pics too dylan ;)

Now we need to organise an interstate cruise...... :P

[qkslvr]

I was just speaking to WaiWong who said the redline cruise went well too. Although he did say the cops pulled over a guy for sticking his arm out the window. Besides that the day was a great success.
