Sau Vic - Drift For Dummies Convoy

[paulr33]

Hi All,

It's time for SAU VIC's first Drift for Dummies Day.

This will be held at the lovely DECA facility in Shepparton VIC.

There will be our usual convoy cruises for both the Friday night crew and early Saturday morning. Of course you can travel in your own time accordingly but it is much easier in a group, and more fun. Previously we were meeting at McMobil on the Hume Hwy but now that the bypass is open it may be more convinient for others so we are all meeting there.

as per the details, its the shell servo, in donnybrook not mcmobil in campbellfield. its easier as the shell is reachable for people that jump off the ring rd relay road. otherwise to get to the mcmobile they have to go backwards

The meet point is a SHELL service station, just after Craigieburn. This is pretty much the perminant meeting point on the HUME as you can use the new Hwy extension to bypass Campbellfield/Craigiburn and skip all the lights. This is the first servo after the merge of the old Hwy and the new Hwy.

[**JaR**]

since u pplz are gonna be going straight past the mobils here on the highway, if i come which at this stage its a 90% chance i will be to watch, i will meet you's at the nth bound mobil on the highway?

its like on the way anyway and right on the hume, i would drive up myself but i forget the way to deca and would rather cruise up with the convoy

[R31Nismoid]

settle lulithi

i seem to be making sure ... u know

as people do make mistakes, but ya .. i guess paul is the only perfect person eva :

Did you read the thread? The rhetorical question there would end in the answer of most certainly not.

He stated the mobil was Previously we were meeting at McMobil on the Hume Hw

Pretty self explanitory if you ask me.

JAR is talking about the Mobil about 40-50km's into the trip up past the Shell/First meet point.

[R31Nismoid]

Chat removed as its pointless and confusing

[**JaR**]

yah ash im talkin about the mobils that are where i am, which would be 5kms out of seymour, on the highway. just to clarify for the people that dunno where i live.

[dezz]

If you have a CB jar, that'd probably make it a lot easier...ie the convoy wouldnt have to stop to pick u up, but could get on the CB as we're approaching, and you'd be ready to just join on...

alternatively, i'll sms ya

so yeah, i'll be in for the saturday morning cruise up

[abcent]

See you all Friday night at the SHELL SERVO.

[**JaR**]

yeah dezz jst sms when u see a sign that says " service centre 5kms " before 2 bridges. that way i will know when to look out for skyrines approaching

We have a change of tour leader for the Friday night convoy.

Scotland and I will be going up the 'back' way from the east, so Jamezilla will be leading the convoy.

[Jamezilla]

I heard Scotlast liked 'the back way'...

Anyhoo - see you all at Shell on Friday. I'll be the guy in the red jacket
