"appreciate The Olds" Cruise

[Jonnyboy89]

where you in the silver skyline possibly a gtr? or as your profile says the 200sx?

[scandyflick]

i was in the 200.

[Jonnyboy89]

oh okay, yea some rather silly overtaking on blind corners by some people!but i welcome that the cruise was still a steady reasonable pace which was awesome!and the olds,well i have spoken to them a few times, and i continue to wonder how they do what they do? the fact they support a scene (imports/drift) that took their son away is rather breath taking! olds, i think i can comment on behalf of everyone, keep up the good work, your very approachable people, and from what i have heard, you support people in any way possible which is something to be proud of! thanks again jonny

^^^ Jonny, why'd you think oh shit? Bit of a late overtake? I got halfway and thought 'oh, f**k'. Safer to keep going then the suddenly brake and cut back in behind him (plus I thought you'd be bring up the rear at a hot pace). Believe me, that move kept my palms well lubricated haha

Now, by boat, you mean my suspension is soft as? Yeah, I need coilovers...

[Jonnyboy89]

yea man i thought, wow that was a late overtake, and im not having a dig bout your car, just pointing out that your back end you could sail of into the hevannais in!lol

you and me both dude, stock sus is sketchy as.

^^^Were you in the red S14?

I saw Type Vu at the meet spot and was surprised to see Luke Fink on the cruise also.

That car accident was the worst bit, split us all up which resulted in my and Mark (blue S15) cruising for the majority of the way to Victor, untill BAM white 32 GTR, Red S13, White S13, and a few others all of a sudden were tagging along.

yeah i had to detour to get some petrol, the other cars followed, time we all turned around and got back on track, u guys must have gone past. was a nice thrash, been forever since ive done that.

all overtaking was fine, nothing sus lol. everyone had a good time.

[Jack88]

nah was waiting for a mate of mine in his RX7 from interstate (looked in my mirror and he wasnt there lol)

Big thanks to everyone who came along and showed their support! Means a lot to me, and no doubt to 'the Olds'.

Everything went pretty well, especially considering the lack of organisation on my part lol...

Hope most enjoyed the route, spewin it was as busy as it was but I certainly wasn't expecting that... would have been nice to get a decent run down into yank & normanville thru that windy hills section but we were held up by many a car who for some reason required 2.5 lanes to negotiate their falcoon wagon down even at only 9.6km/h ??? and somehow it's us who earn the 'bad driver' label ??

Also apologies to everyone for the victor parking situation... yet another thing I definitely didn't forsee as being quite that bad

But to those who snagged a park, & stayed for lunch, well done, thank you.

All in all, was a good day, cheers again for all the donations, both time & money...

Special thanks to Nicko & the 'Smooth Garage' boys for sponsoring the cruise, Little bec for helping with donations, Mike Cop for donating his time for the shoot, 'SASLY' for his donation & also a CONGRATS to him for winning the shoot too.

Mark & Jules - We love you guys... your generosity, love & support is second to none.. Our scene wouldn't be the same without you both.

Can't wait for the BSM Cruise, keen as mustard to stretch the GTR's legs (& maybe flex its muscles too) on that one!!

Thanks again, speak soon.

Lindo & Bec

"Ok guys, now before we go anywhere make sure you get yourselves a trolley, preferably one with an extra dodgy wheel... we're gonna cruise the sh!t outta this place!!"
