I thought I'd be cool too when I left. I floored it going up the same road and then surprisingly the rear end kicked out a fair bit when it went in to second. It scared me. Did anyone see that? It was weird.

Well good to see you all had a good time. Yet another cruise that I have missed. On a lighter note, progress was made on the weekend and the new engine and trans is in the car and ready to be sprayed all over the 1/4 at Heathcote on the r31 vs eseries day.

Ahhh what a weekend

Ash: no R31 day? Noooooooo! I'm desperate to see how we'd run against each other!

Fantz: you're on! Now I have to figure out how to make my impending loss look like a "close match" :P

Wayne minus LWB: good to see ya again! Fit the 347 already...

Wayne WITH LWB: It was great to say g'day to you mate, and LTDHO is *horn*!

Dee Four Emm Zero: Line you up at Heathcote?

Yagz: Looking forward to seeing the video of the group conversation at Fountain Gate :P gGood to see you again mate).

Gilly: Sorry I didn't get around to having a longer chat with you. These damn meets are getting so large that I don't get to catch up with everyone now.

Sunny: For some reason when you and that BA turned off at the Belgrave Rd exit, logic told me to peel off from the rest of the cruise as well. Boy did I feel dumb :S

FORDEBV8: Was great chatting with you all night mate!

Pat & Joe: Thanks for having me over again guys ;)

Robbo & TOG: You luff teh dirty talk!

And finally, Heljas: Thankyou for taking my heads to Swanny, I really appreciate it mate! Looking forward to having a longer chat with you at the next event.

Thanks for the great cruise guys, I think it was the best one yet. I'm stuffed, I went to the X-Series BBQ/fuel dump the next day, then slept 17 hours last night. I've got a major test in an hour which I haven't studied for. Priorities!

I was beside you on the middle lane, freaked me out aswell! lol
Great cruise! It was good catching up with some old faces and meeting new ones aswell. I think one of the biggest highlights was the white EL Xr that just missed the trolley bay as he was 'exiting' the carpark at Epping, that was close. Lots of nice looking e-series it was awesome!

And yeah there were at least 3 everglade EB Fairmont V8's there.. all looked pretty much identical.. was good. Next time we should all park together, i'll get some shots of em all lined up
Yeh lol i think we were actually the only guys from the northern suburbs. I was gona go the high street way but i wanted to cruise with the pack so i decided to tag along. Yeh the exhaust tone does get louder after driving a bit, a few people i spoke to on the night said the same thing about there exhaust tone's to. Next time will do the photo shoot for sure.

Effalcon- god damit, i have been on about 4 cruises and you have not taken a single pic of my car yet (i think in one of the pictures you can see my headlight lol) . I was looking at the photo's and it seemed you were taken photos car by car. You took photo's of the two cars next to me but not mine, you skiped my car!!!. Whats going on???? e lol

i think it'd look kick-ar$e with FORDEBV8, you and myself lined up, so yeah next cruise when we find a spot with half decent lighting, we'll line em all up together and i'll get some shots.

I'll whack the 18's from the EL on it too beforehand.

Sam, that low white EL with stockies on the back ruined the night. I was hoping he wrote his car off. But didn't. :(

Was he a wanna be or a member.

the white loud as crap shitter was a random as far as i'm aware.
they followed us to the glen, then left straight away not to be seen again.
i was waiting for him to stop so i could find out who he was.

that car and the other white EF with twin tips were the only notable trouble makers.
both sets of plates have been recoreded and will be forwarded onto the police.
who ever the guy is with the white EF with twin tips might wanna reconsider his attendance at our events.

i'm fairly sure one of them is from the western side.
either way, its all speculation.
plates are all that matters

Just to follow up on the actions of the EF with the twin tips.
the member has been given a formal warning, further actions similar will warrent bans/police report.
He has appologised for it and is now fully aware on our strict policies.
So now we can let the thread get back to MORE PICS!

he's not a forum member.
He's been to multiple cruises, but this is the first with the bulge and new rims, and nott o mention respray.
Certainly looks good and he'll be at more cruises
