[sammi_d]

Back by popular demand - we're lining up another Old Pac Run! Get your cars ready for one of the best night runs on the calendar!

So without any ado whatsoever, here are the details for you to save:

Date: Saturday 23rd November 2024
Meet Location: Cowan Truck Stop (Pacific Motorway - Refer to Map)
Meet Time: Meet at 7:30pm for a 8:00pm departure

Map: https://tinyurl.com/saunsw-oldpac

Definitely an easy one for this cruise, meet at Cowan Truck Stop and jump straight onto Old Pacific Highway!

Final stop at McDonald's which has plenty of parking all around.
Please be mindful of the added police presence lately so best behaviour is expected!

There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.
If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior!

This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days.

This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit.

One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.

When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to:
• Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly.
• Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should.
• Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly.
• Any misbehaviour will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!

I missed the last few events, but somewhere between 5 and 30? Have a look at the albums to get an idea.

I feel like it mostly depends on the weather and on how much of a chance @sammi_d gets to spread the word on social media.

At my age, 59, I'm in bed by 20:30 nowadays 😴

I'm pretty much a solar powered device, powering up at first light, and powering down when the sun goes down 🤣

Oh to be young again.....

If I don't do this, people want to be around me even less than normal.
8 hours is a minimum requirement...

I forgot to say Mark, you know how if you lack sleep, we get Grumpy Mark?

When I lack sleep I'm Grumpy Matt.

We must be the GrumpMa's!

[soviet_merlin]

Hmpf, still dealing with the flu/covid/plague so won't make it this time

[Watermouse]

Sorry guys I won’t make it.

Tried hard to have my car fixed but I can’t get her to rev under load. Can cycle through the gears in granny mode but have nothing over 3,000rpm if I need to hit the accelerator.

Ended up having to turn around and go home. It looks like my Alternator has packed it in.
