Unofficial Great Ocean Road Cruise

[TTerminator]

Hi guys as a new member (300ZX TT) I did a breakfast run down to Lorne last Sun. THe main group left Geelong at 7.30am and we arrived at Lorne around 8.30am. 944 Porsche, 92 RX7, Lotus Espirit Turbo, Boxster and a collection of late model aircooled and watercooled 911s. With my twin turbo Zed as the other Jap representative. Sadly no Skylines but interesting to pace oneself behind the car in front (a late model Carrerea which was quite easy to keep up with).

FWIW been down this way a few times since Xmas and with all the cameras and police it's cruise control for me as this whole area is very well policed. Its more relaxing to sit back, relax just under 100.

Just before Lorne we had fun on the twisties and after breafast I came home solo via Deans Marsh, Colac, Cressy back to Geelong and back to Melbourne. About 430km for the day

Having never driven a R32/33/34 GTR I guess I'm in the right place to mix with you guys.

Currently enjoyng my auto TT 2+2 300ZX but admit to looking at GTRs. Whether or not they would be as relaxing and comfortable as the Zed not sure. But perhaps if I can join you guys on a cruise one day I'll get more of a feel for any differences.

One things for sure Nissan build a very interesting range of cars.

Shell servo on the Point Cook Rd Exit.

This would be the best place to meet, as it is central to everyone and on the way to Geelong.

Zoomed in:

it is the easter long weekend and hopefully good weather and maybe even good fishing/camping that nyt.

o0o0o0o0o camping and fishing :sorcerer: Too bad I don't have any of my camping stuff anymore

[Turko]

Would a Humble Nissan Silvia & 180SX be allowed to join in on the fun?

[R TUNE]

TTerminator your welcome to come hope a few guys bring thier GTR's so you can have a look.

al the Shell servo on the Point Cook Rd Exit.

al i know the servo that your talking of but it wont be any good (event tho it has 100 cotane fuel) as it will just be to cramped for 15-25 cars. im going to go with the averlon servo were we started for the members cruiz as i know it is big and will suite our needs

Please note this cruise is NOT a "Club Event" and is subsequently not covered by SAU Vic's CAMS public liability insurance.

It doesnt take much to confuse some people Brentt, you gotta be careful with statements like the above

[cheez]

sorry that came acrross wrong. i was just stateing that SAU either a member event or not does not descrimernate (i.e allow only skylines) in to the club and any body is welcome. am i right bec.

and yes this event is NOT covered by cams. so be cearfule

and turbo x i take it you will be comeing

guy the mini cruise thread is up so post up there if u'r going on it

chears brentt

[Al]

Brentt, your cruise so you decide.

BUT.......... B4 SAU Vic was an offical club we used that servo as a meet point for the GOR cruise and we had 40-50 cars parked there, so 15-20 cars is no problem.

I know if i was coming (engine now deceased ), i would not drive to Bell Str. Macca's to only drive back. Hell, i wouldn't take my car to that macca's even if i lived round the corner.

[cln]

lol al perhaps northern subs guys meet at kmart campbellfield

[Kylie]

hey brent,

im northern burbs but is a longer distance for me to drive to greensie from reservoir to only drive back past. why dont the northern burbs meet at the bell st maccas in preston then take bell st til we hit freeway?

ley me know.

I live just around the corner from Bell St Maccas, so that sounds good to me

[sickem555]

sif, we can get off work, since when have you had a saturday off

x1

28th would be good at this stage

[Blade]

ill be their

[R TUNE]

hey al you dont have to come to the bell st maccas this meet point is only for people who are close or on the east side of melb. as for your self if you do come you can meet us at little river (the main meet point) so that way you wont have to drve back and forth.

as for the servo with it being easter it will probably be full (like most) so ive decided on littler river as i know that it will hold a high number of cars.

sickem555 are you comeing or conferming
