Hi Guys,

My mate is getting married and I have been entrusted with organising the buck's party on Saturday 10th November. Usually that's a simple affair - plenty of alcohol and strippers - except my mate rarely drinks alcohol and has been on a health kick for 9 months now, and specifically stated that he doesn't want and is not interested in having any strippers (he has stated this repeatedly when there are just the 2 grooms men present).

He is only 29 but is a pretty conservative guy (financial planner) and marrying a pharmacist.

He is into cars but Mallala is booked out the day of his buck's party for the Phoenix Motorcycle Club SA track day. There doesn't appear to be any drags on at AIR that night.

He is also interested in AFL - finished; Football (soccer) - Adelaide United play at Hindmarsh the following day, the Socceroos are not playing, Liverpool play Chelsea on Monday morning at 2:30am ACDT; F1 - no race that weekend; Cycling - I looked at hiring out the Super-Drome for 2 hours but the SA State Championships are on the weekend Nov 9-11th and we couldn't get him to the track the week before or after.

So far I have made the following suggestions and have received some feedback from him.

Go karts - he did this as a kid and isn't interested any more - too slow

Ten pin bowling

Mini golf

Driving range (golf)

Shooting range (guns)

Archery

Pool hall

Paint ball - We don't have enough people.

Arcade lock in (video games)

Wine tour - we live near McLaren Vale & the wedding is at the Barossa Valley...

Skydiving - Afraid of heights and had a total knee reconstruction 1-2 years ago that he wouldn't risk

Bungee Jumping - see above

Rock Climbing & Abseiling - Indoor yes (Holden Hill). Outdoor no.

Fishing Charter - He just laughed at this suggestion but I took a that as "Hell no".

I have also thought about hiring a bunch of scooters and setting out an Amazing Race like course with challenges where I could incorporate a lot of the ideas I had already put forward just on a much smaller scale.

For example:

Stage 1 - bowl a strike at ten pin bowling (Norwood)

Stage 2 - hit a specific target at a golf driving range (Tap Inn at Kent Town)

Stage 3 - etc

Drop off the scooters and run to a bar where they have topless waitresses and you have to do a shot/skull a beer or something similar.

By that time we will have done several small activities and can relax, eat a meal and have a some drinks.

Although he has said that he is not really interested in alcohol I never underestimate the power of peer pressure and from there we can see where the night takes us.

Issues with this idea are that we could all be separated, something could go wrong, someone could get hurt if they are not paying attention (most Adelaide drivers are poorly skilled).

Anyway what I am looking for are suggestions of possible activities.

And places in Adelaide where the waitresses are topless. They must be decent places and not absolute dumps.

Thanks for your help.

Avoid the Cross Keys.... avoid it like the bubonic plague

...unless you love to see the effects of gravity first hand

(Isaac Newton would f**king love that place)

-D

does checkmates still exist? topless uni students serving meals.... then eat a can of fruit pieces off one of their stomachs for dessert...

Had a bucks show on the weekend for a mate-- 18pubs, different kind of drink at each pub....was great...except I was the only one that made it to the palace by myself-nevertheless I had a good time!lol...great fun, except by the sounds of it ur mate won't enjoy this...

    • Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
