Bahaha!! It'll be the perfect time to shout out "do a flip"! LOL @Redline_GTR

I imagine double demerits would still be on... I'm not sure about getting my car on this either, HOWEVER, if there are a few of us, I might come down for the chance to nap some photos at the very least! @OZ GTR35 How would you feel about me posting this on the SAUNSW website and social media? Might drag in a few more skylines/members that way? It'd definitely make @crashdown happy to get a track event on our calendar!

That would be my guess - maybe the injunction(?) might be on the old owners, so having new owners will allow for a clean slate?

***DATE CHANGED TO 3RD JUNE***

Photos are now live on both our Facebook and website! 😁

In case anyone has missed it, photos are now up on our Facebook and website! 😁 I hope everyone who came enjoyed the cruise! And for all those that missed out, I hope the photos teased you enough to join the next event 😜

***CRUISE CANCELLED - WE'RE HAVING A SOCIAL MEET INSTEAD*** Well gang... As you would have seen by now, we won't be going ahead with our planned cruise up Old Pac Hwy since Mother Nature isn't being fair to us with the weather... But we aren't going to let the weather damper our spirits (pun intended)! Instead of a cruise, the SAUNSW team are still committed to holding an event, so, instead we'll be heading to the Bankstown's Entertainment Park for a night of go-karting, a bite to eat, maybe a few photos and plenty of the usual laughs! So without any ado whatsoever, here are the details for you to save: Date: Saturday 29th April 2023 Meet Location: Entertainment Park - 361 Milperra Rd, Bankstown NSW 2200 Meet Time: Meet at 7:30pm Map: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Entertainment+Park/@-33.9289454,150.9874322,17z/data=!4m15!1m8!3m7!1s0x6b12be65935f0f19:0x3c6e9446b4aa3277!2s20%2F361+Milperra+Rd,+Bankstown+Aerodrome+NSW+2200!3b1!8m2!3d-33.9289499!4d150.9900071!16s%2Fg%2F11p0gkyw4h!3m5!1s0x6b12bf8cbbdaeefd:0xe0fe69afce2fbf12!8m2!3d-33.9288852!4d150.9895021!16s%2Fg%2F11h800pc1g Entertainment Park has a variety of activities for us to choose from at their venue! Just take your pick - they offer indoor go-karting, pool tables, 10-pin bowling and even a race simulator! All you have to do is head to their website and book in for a time that suits you! https://ecom.roller.app/entertainmentpark/booknow/en/products?date=2023-04-29 A simple plan, but what we'll do is meet at the same time we were planning on meeting for our cruise - at 7.30pm. From then, its a matter of picking a session for go-karting and having a race! Even if you don't want to race a go-kart, you can still come down to hang out, chat, and maybe get snapped in a photo or two (assuming the weather eases off long enough to snap some photos)... If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit.

Well, folks! Now, we've gone and done it! We're bringing out a cruise destination from the SAUNSW vault that hasn't been done in almost a decade! We're heading to Burragorang Lookout! In case you're wondering, Burragorang Lookout is located near Warragamba Dam, where you'll be able to see just how far Warragamba's catchment area is! This is a fairly simple cruise, with few turns, which is also local - consider it a hidden treasure in Sydney's backyard! So without any ado, here are the details: Date: Sunday 26th March Meet Location: Red Rooster, M4, Eastern Creek (West-bound) Meet Time: Meet at 9:00am for a 9:30am departure Destination: Burragorang Lookout, Burragorang Road, Nattai Map: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Red+Rooster+Eastern+Creek,+Western+Motorway,+Eastern+Creek+Blacktown,+NSW/burragorang+lookout/Camden+Valley+Inn,+Remembrance+Drive,+Cawdor+NSW/@-34.0904265,150.693856,19.03z/data=!4m25!4m24!1m10!1m1!1s0x6ad9ecaa54cfe7eb:0xf0d37f0e2e577385!2m2!1d150.8810631!2d-33.8024081!3m4!1m2!1d150.6682046!2d-33.7740864!3s0x6b1288c9655dd753:0x424c8e2ac4a4c262!1m5!1m1!1s0x6b1251a458212e69:0xe7328e069c80f1c3!2m2!1d150.4339643!2d-34.0689178!1m5!1m1!1s0x6b12fa0dbbf01671:0xa343f8beaaafcd44!2m2!1d150.6943219!2d-34.0916495!3e0 We'll be meeting at the Red Rooster carpark at the west-bound Twin Servo's on the M4 (heading west-bound). After our usual briefing, we'll be entering onto the M4, and will continue along until we reach the Mulgoa Road exit to Penrith. At this exit, we'll turn left onto Mulgoa Road, and follow it along. After turning left onto Mulgoa Road, we'll very quickly come up to a roundabout, where we'll turn right to continue along Mulgoa Road. We'll stay on Mulgoa Road until we arrive in Wallacia, where we'll turn right onto Silverdale Road. Silverdale Road is another long stretch of road we'll be running on, until we get to another roandabout in The Oaks, where we'll turn right again on Mary Street, which later becomes Burragorang Road. We then follow this all the way until we reach the lookout. After we walk around and stretch our legs for 30 min, we'll then head to Camden Valley Inn for a bite to eat and a drink, for all of you who would love to join us. Camden Valley Inn is only a stone's throw away from Burragorang Lookout - all we do is follow Burragorang Road all the way back the way we came until we reach the Old Hume Hwy at a T-intersection. From there, we turn right onto the Old Hume, and follow it for a few short minutes until we reach Camden Valley Inn, which will be located on the right on Wire Lane. As always, there will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. We will be passing through some residential areas along our drive, so your best behaviour is most appreciated. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit.

Welcome to the new year, gang! It's finally 2023, so to kick off the new year, we'd like to invite you all to join the SAUNSW team in starting the new year with a chilled out catch up! With all of the great feedback last year, we decided where else would be better to catch up than at Aqua Golf at Penrith Panthers! So without any ado, here are the details: Date: Saturday 21st January Location: Aqua Golf - Penrith Panthers Time: 4:00pm Map: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Aqua+Golf/@-33.7565255,150.6829137,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x97bb34f3a6f6199a!8m2!3d-33.7565255!4d150.6829137?fbclid=IwAR2U9eoMdP0zNJHLtbGMmPfSdfe7FG12879ICx1PNZ8_6o29TnwV6Otqp4E All you need to do is bring yourselves down to Penrith Panthers to come and say "HI", hang out, and maybe hit a few golf balls at the drive range. Who knows where the night may take us... What we do know is that there are plenty of food options available at the Penrith Panthers complex. For those of us keen to hit a few golf balls, prices start from $7.00 a bucket. Aqua Golf is open til late, so we have plenty of time to have a few hits and laughs with each other!
