Guest MRE Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Originally posted by dAVE it seems pretty pointless having a club if only 4 people turn up to a cruise like this...... i think it just goes to show how skyline drivers are 99% posers these days. Well if there was actually a club, it could be promoted. I spent a year telling ever line owner I met about the club or soon to be club. After having to meet the same people and having to tell them there is no club yet again and again. I gave up, I felt like an idiot. I have since joined 3 clubs one of which cost $150, but its money well spent. Of the 3 clubs I am a member they have regular meets, cruises dinners etc, all well attended and organized. In the end I just lost faith in there ever would be a club set up here. Even when I tried to help/offer it was NO we have it sorted, felt like there was a little elite group and I was not invited. Its great to see the other states are way ahead and I wish them the best. As for me I will still enjoy what I love most and that's my imports, cruising and the club scene, Good luck to ever is in charge these days and I hope you get there one day. As for "i think it just goes to show how skyline drivers are 99% posers these days." and that comes from someone who would go on a skyline cruise's but not take his own, well. No offense Dave hey. I am amazed at the delight of how many skyline owners I meet that are so keen to join a Skyline club...............but that sad fact that there is no club.

rb25 Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Yeah, my experience is pretty much what MRE said. I'm not interested in cruises organised on this forum or joining SAU club, coz there STILL aint a club and the cruises have poor attendance even tho' everyone says 'I'll be there'. Yeah right.

kryz Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 On the other hand a number of us went up and had dinner together on Saturday night, had a great time. We noted we didn't feel like going on the run on the Sunday, as another cruise just seemed too much.

BelGarion Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 yes well its glaringly obvious there, 2 cruises in the one weekend isnt a good idea, specially one so far north, then one so far south im sure one of these days slips gonna get off his ass and sort it, but i spose it does take a lot of time, and most people work. my 2 cents are, bring on the club, and bring back my licence Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/20061-my-bitch/#findComment-421808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM2death Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 I wouldn't give up....as obviously there are a group of us who are/were dedicated to make it happen....so if we all put our heads together, we could organise it.

Guest Boxhead Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 james - yes, some people had some excuses, and im not even going to blame slips cruise, but seriously now, for 2 cruises, both totally different, what we got less then 15 cars for both put together??? to me, thats not cricket, that is more similar to a weird retarded form of tidley winks... its not to say that we shouldnt have 2 cruises on the 1 weekend, but my point is, even if that was an excuse, atleast go to one of them... not either...

NismoGirl Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 That one cruise that Andrew and I tried to organise that a few people came and ripped to shreads really makes you feel like "Why do I bother" ... I know there was some interest, but as already stated in here, you get all theses people saying "yeah I'll go .. FOr sure... I'll be there" ...Then no one turns up. Luke has been telling me that the club is getting closer and closer each time I see him... but nothing yet. I haven't joined any clubs simply because I have a b/f that isn't interested in anything besides himself and his car. So there's no point joining a car club if you aren't allowed to attend the functions. Is there? I will also say that other people have other commitments in life that don't always allow them to attend EVERY cruise. I personally am not a fan of the Mountain Runs, hence why I don't attend. But I have never once insinuated that I was going to attend. I have made it quite clear from the beginning that I don't like Mountain Cruises, hence why I don't attend. As for the sunshine coast cruise, I didn't even know it was on, call me lazy or just plain stupid but I didn't look in the QLD section to see if there was any cruise. I normally only look in the wasteland. That's my bitch.. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/20061-my-bitch/#findComment-422215 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birty Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 It's a lot easier to join a club then to start one. Don't think that we've given up, it's just very difficult to organise stuff, and find time to do all the running around and paper work and get this stuff going. The club is registered, just we've got a few more things to organise before we can take on members in a way that we'd feel comfortable and confident. We could just take peoples money now, and have a few cruises, but we want to give every member their value for money, and things have to be done right. We are getting close to having everything finalised. And i'll guarantee that all the other clubs around had similar difficulties in the begining as well. Myself, slip, luke/abu53, gary all have fulltime jobs and it's not as easy to get everyone, and everything together. And besides, there's more to a club then a piece of paper saying you're a member, a lot of people on here have known each other for years, helped each other, and had some great days/events together. I don't think that should ever be given up on. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/20061-my-bitch/#findComment-422235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoix Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 was going to go on slips cruise because i never have been up to the sunshine coast except for a holiday in my mums house in coolum. didnt go because the numbers were disapointing, and everyone was late, and heaps of lines passed and never stopped >=[ the sunday cruise I was going to go to but didnt know where the **** that place was/is. and I dont know what to type into www.whereis.com.au to find it so I didnt go,a nd my cousin used me to fix some tax accounts computer(****ing hate her now and stupid ibtch threw away all her cds that she got with the cable and computer...) However, I reckon we meet somewhere in the next 2 weeks, wheather it be thursday night at aspley maccas in the hypermarket carpark(that way we are able to all park together and talk to one another without running all over the car park or met at yatala BP/maccas at 7:30pm on saturdays so we get car parks because everyone goes at 8-9pm. fuela nd eat there and all leave together to somewhere. radios are cheap now, two for $99 at dick smiths and they are uniden, they dot he job, but you wont be able to have your stereo up heaps of fun and if you were on the coast on sat night you would have heard me on chl 17 till about 10pm then 20 till 3am I dont know whats the best thing for the sunshine state people as I dont know how long it takes for us to get to you and vice versa, and how many of you up there, to see if its even worth the trip. anyway I'm just saying lets ALL meet one night and have a cruise, just give 2 weeks notice and everything should be ok.

NismoGirl Posted July 15, 2003 Share Posted July 15, 2003 *scratches head* Can't we just all get along. I honestly don't see what the big rush is... Why do we NEED a club RIGHT NOW! Why does everyone have to explain their actions.. Why does everyone have to come here and critise everyone?? Gary, I wish I had $1000, thanks for doing that bud. That's a lot of money to fork out with a new bub. Do you really want slip and luke and gary and birty and ... who did I forget...?? promoting a club that is only half finished? Once again, I really don't see the big fuss, if you want to belong to something that badly, join another club.

SmoothLine Posted July 15, 2003 Share Posted July 15, 2003 Can I ask why my post thanking Gary for his sensible response was deleted? If on topic sensible posts are going to be removed it defeats the purpose of the forum... Thanks. And slip, there is no need to edit your last post over and over... We get what your saying... Regarding chaos running the club, noone said he should. I didnt think it was fair or mature for slip to single him out, I stand by that.
