R34 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise N Show N Shine

[mxfly]

[This event post has been approved by Blitz]

This year marks the 10th anniversary inception of the mighty R34 GT-R since January, 1999. So what better way to celebrate this milestone than to organise the first ever R34 10th Anniversary Charity Cruise n Show n Shine at Mount Wilson, NSW. Just up the Blue Mountains west of Sydney.

All R34 GT-R's, GT-T's and GT-V owners are welcome to participate and we are making this event as fun and memorable as possible for everyone.

Firstly, High Performance Imports have graciously offered to attend our Event and take Photographs and a story for a future issue in the magazine.

Secondly, we have organised an Aikido group to attend the day as well. Sensei Sagiba has kindly offered his Aikido Dojo Members to attend and for them to bring along weaponry to help make photos of your cars more dramatic. We can ask them to do a demonstration with katas etc if they're willing to, as well.

On top of all the above, we will also host a Show n Shine event with prizes awarded to the following categories.

- Best engine bay

- Best interior

- Best looking wheels

- Best exterior/paintwork

- Best GT-R

- Best GT-T

- Best overall car on the day

Representative of HPI will present those prizes with the likelihood of some pics being taken for the major categories.

And there's more...! If you'd like a balance between Yin and Yang, there'll be a lady (not in a bikini but) very dignified in her Kimono. So you choose as to whether you'd like a shot of her on one side and the martial artist on the other - or two martial artists posing with your car and you, the driver.

And to keep the Boys in Blue off our backs, we ask all participants to donate a coin to our nominated charity, Deep Blue. Deep Blue is a registered charity that is currently doing research on different types of depression and suicide.

And dont forget to bring your cameras too because the autumn colours will be at their peak if there's not too much rain before then. Further info will be supplied in due course with regards to food.

Remember, this Event will be an invitation for all R34 owners nationwide to attend. So ask your mates in other states to come and billet them. We will do our best to find motels with shallow gutters and secure (enough) parking for your precious gems.

The details of the cruise as follows.

Meet at P6 at Homebush Bay at 9-9.30am April 26 in order to leave at 10 SHARP

The convoy will set off west along Hill Rd > Parramatta Rd > James Ruse Dr > Briens Rd > Old Windsor Rd

> merging with Windsor Rd at Kellyville Ridge > ByPass Rd to connect with > Richmond Rd/Windsor St

> left into Market St (otherwise there's vicious speed humps in town) > right into March St/Kurrajong Rd

> across Hawkesury R. and Bells Line Of Road > turn right into Mt Wilson after 55Km from the River.

There's ONE fixed speed camera after Kurmond and there'll be ONE organiser at the front of the GT-R group and ONE near the end. There'll be ONE organiser at the front of the GT-T group and ONE near the end as well.

Please Note: that it's your responsibility to drive safely & it's your responsibility to check this thread in that, if there's inclement weather and the Photoshoot is called off, this Event will be delayed exactly ONE week (with same times).

The highlights of this Event are...the atmosphere of this glorious spot, the drama of martial artists presenting your car at its best, the Japanese theme with a Kimono clad lady, the cruise itself, the presence of a major motoring magazine to do our story, and of course the prizes to be won and then presented by High Performance Imports staff.

All interstate owners who are interested to attend, would you please register your intention in the NSW Events thread located here

Better include them, the poltically correct will make you a demon for not inviting them.

The plan for 2010 21st Anniv of the original Godzilla includes Macquarie Pass > Kangaroo Valley Rd. > Nowra

We've been prepared to do 3X the work.

And there's many a time that all Skylines go for cruises. SAU arranges them

I understand your thoughts tho': but the occasion is really the Anniversary stance!

Different when it's a show for R34s not an open carshow for all in Canberra.

Now I think that's a really good idea. Plus you all know you want a few sexy R32s along for the ride

Chris and anyone else from Canberra that wants to head up for a little looksy, lemme know if you want to drive up together.

Of course! I'd argue with anyone that says that R32s aren't sexy!

Just Post up in NSW > Events > R34 GT-R 10th ANNIV. to say you're IN!

Cheers, Tez
