Queensland Meet And Cruise

[Commsman]

Thanks everyone on the cruise for making it a great day out & for being so welcoming. Thanks again Darren for doing the organising.

It was nice enough weather and some great roads were chosen for the cruise.

The sound of all the cars accelerating away from, well pretty much everywhere possible, was awesome.

If a few more M35 owners could make it next time then the couple of us who turned up wouldn't be so outnumbered

Cheers, Leon.

[Commsman]

Hope it was a good day for some of you. My day ended up costing me $200 & three points.

Bugger! That's bad luck. I don't think anyone else got a ticket. Well not getting to Bribie at least. Who knows about the way home...

[Raysboostin]

once again it was an awesome day out! great roads and great company. although i dare say my clutch may not last the week out

[boost_bus180]

thanks for the day out, will def try to be at the next one.

few quick photos from along the way....

Sorry I did not get there. My Stag is going great, but then it gets its knickers in a knot and is honestly not safe to drive. It is so frustrating.

If our latest tweaks dont work, it is off to Brissie for a big work over and fix.

Awesome cruise everyone, I was a passenger in a mates Stagea taking video of the day.

Got some good shots in but I would like more, so I need your help. The reason is I'm going to make a short film of the day, maybe about 5mins long depending on how much feedback there is. So if there was anyone that was taking pictures or video could you please PM me and I'll give you my email and you can send them through. ATM Ive got about 6mins of video from my camera and im hoping to blend them in with some photos. Wont be anything to fancy as I'll be using Windows Live Movie Maker...

SO please send them thru...

Hi Keir.

Yeah, it was a great day. I was looking forward to seeing you there with your M35 but you can't do much about a faulty starter motor. So next time then.....

Hi Matt, my son took some pics & video on my phone but you'd be better off seeing who else can contribute 'cause the quality won't be up to the standard you would want. However, if you really get stuck for content, let me know & I'll send what I've got.

Cheers, Leon.

[Ceffy]

Can't seem to embed videos from youtube, maybe someone else could do it? Anyways heres a sample....

Hey Leon, your pictures and videos would be much appreciated. Cheers...

A big thanks to Darrin for a well organised event! It was a great drive, and the surf club was very good (Chicken parmy FTW!)... Spent close to 2 hours at Carindale on the way back when GreenGhost(Myles)'s trans cooler line got severed, and we had no tools (!!), so had to do the whole roadside-mechanic-bunnings-run-for-sockets,-pliers,-cutters-etc-thing.... All fixed in the end, but it had its moments, and my car is still covered in his ATF...

As far as the Bribie Island end of the main cruise was concerned:

12(?) Stageas+3 empty lanes+2 red lights+1 mindset+2 synchronised launches = Simply awesome.

Thanks to all for a great day!

It would have been like watching the 3 stooge's on the side of the road fixing Myles (drives like a girl and gets lost) car.

Those couple of launches at the lights is pretty much the end to my clutch

My car still smells like a burnt mexican burrito inside.

Don't post vid's of any crazy Bribie Island retired volvo drivers

Stagea drivers promote safe driving

Good day out, shame so many had to miss it.

Who votes a return trip over the mountain from the other side??

I'll be up for that, turned out one of the intercooler pipes has collapsed? I have no F@#kn idea how this can happen while driving but 3hrs on the side of the highway in pouring rain and I was ready to torch the thing grrrrrr fixed now

[boost_bus180]

yeah I'd be down for that. I know that side of the world well, just let me know if you want a hand organising it

[32TAXI]

I'd be up for that, may even bring the taxi up as well!

Big thanks to Darrin & great to meet you all!

Would it be ok to use these pictures in my video of the cruise?

[mattye]

Yeh man...All good... As long as I get my name in the credits Hehehe

Only thing would be as long as everyone else is happy to have their number plates in the pics.

Maybe just blur the plates.

Hey It's Jacob, (commsmans son) I went on the cruise and enjoyed it (i didn't doubt that i would) and was wondering if the guys that went could give me the specs of there stags and what mods they have done to them.

[Raysboostin]
