Don't be a smarty pants behind keyboard Ash...

How come we've never met before eh? I bought my first R33 gtst the date i joined up in this forum and have attended fair amount of cruises and GOR trips.

Probably because you didn't have your keyboard, just like so many before you.

You keep attributing numbers to the competition of winning a trophy, I don't believe it's the case at all. You could have scrapped trophies, same amount of cars would have been there on Sunday. The competition is secondary to the show and shine, there's many more variables to it than that. It has more to do with starting times, lock in, location, weather etc. And that's all I'll say on this.

On with the trophies again? I'm obviously not explaining this correctly as I don't really care about the trophy part and can't see where I led you to believe that. Even though it may seem like I'm fighting, I'm actually just trying to provide a view of which some of it may be beneficial for the club.

I posted that the competition was 'rigged'....but I wasn't being serious lol.

I enjoyed the day even though I didn't win anything (not even a fuel voucher haha).

'Rigged' was just me generalising the many words that were used to describe it :) I had a fun time too! I'm sure everyone did. I'm just looking at it from a long term growth perspective, that's all.

You kids need to be less complaining.

Everyone loves to whine after an event, but I see NO members EVER volunteering your time, thoughts or ideas.

So as a result, you get what you are given. If you don't like it - put down your keyboard and run for Committee to take the club into what you believe the direction should be.

Trying not to come off as a nagging child although understandably suggestions are far easier to make after an event. I have not been to an official event before therefore I had no reference to suggest prior to this one.

I would be happy to volunteer, although when I try to provide constructive feedback to a 'Club Executive' it's taken as a complaint. It's a little difficult to want to volunteer when the absolute first step of the whole process, making suggestions as an attendee, is a grueling experience.

Not quite sure why I bothered giving a shit :(

Oh C'mon.. don't be like that mayne, uncle Flynn loves you.

There were a fair few cruise clubs that sprung up after the first release of Fast n Furious, every Tom Dick and Harry was getting into the import craze.

One that comes to mind is MCCR.. Melbourne Car Cruise Registry.

Got some wheels first!

Mine didn't arrive in time otherwise I'd do less of bribing...

Not to worry, there's always next year.

Now to wrap the wing or not, mine's peeling :(

What wheels did you get again?

Where is the spoiler peeling?

Where is the spoiler peeling?

Panasport G7 C5C - Flat spoke, 18x10.5 +16, but may sell it cos with coilovers I've got I fear I will wreck it with tinest of potholes. But the coilovers do make the R handle amazing though - might grab softer set with swaybars.

It's peeling where the long bit towards window, I think it'll peel further when I wash it with high pressure water at carwash joint. I'm thinking of sticker bomb vinyl the wing, not the blade though.

By 8hrs you mean 6 yea?

Of those 6, almost 1hr of that would be moving in/out etc.

6 / 8 same same, same reason i didnt enter the sau nats one its just to long imo, clearly others dont have an issue with it which is fine but i'd be willing to bet you'd have a better turn out with a shorter time frame of mandatory attendance.

but im not knockin your events you guys do a good job considering its unpaid unloved work

I am sure you can spare 1 day from the whole entire 365 days we have in a year to spend a quarter of a day at a show and shine :laugh:

It's just for some fun.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
