I have been invited on the Porshe drive day next week.The idea

of the day is to introduce people to the different models available

& also to meet other people interested in them.They have a selection of Boxters, Boxter S, & 911 coupe & cabrios.(No turbos though - spewin - I've driven one & they are awesome). Will spend the whole day in the hills with a spotter out front on the lookout & get to drive all the different models - should be fun.

This got me to thinking though.When we go on cruises, we drive our own cars & usually take our own passengers for the whole cruise.I am not suggesting that we swap cars but I thought it might be fun to swap the passengers around at intervals so they get a chance to experience the different cars & also get to know the drivers a bit better.Some of the drivers might even like to let their close friends drive their cars a bit & then they can go for rides in someone elses car. Of course social events where we are not cruising would be cool - but this way we can really check out each other cars a bit better.I know there are a couple of Skylines which are often sideways that I would like to go for a ride in!

this idea would have to be properly organised on a decent day cruise so intervals could be fair & everyone gets at least a couple of rides in a different car & may not work if everyone wants to go in the same car, but I thought I would put the idea out there & see what happens.

BTW - the LS1 cruise to Ayers rock is on over Easter.

Whats the plan for the 28th March cruise?

Good idea John, I reckon im gonna get some "P" plater in my car up the hills to see how long before he slams the wall :]

Nar thats the sorta thing that might keep ppl interested more. So when u handing me the keys ? EH HE

Sounds good as long as ppl treat the cars with respect like they should.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.

      I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
