Swansea To Brooklyn Via Woy Woy, Sunday 19Th October

[BLKYLO]

Hello everyone,

As I mentioned at the end of my last cruise, my next event was going to be north of sydney, and in an attempt to make it so that the Newcastle/Gosford area could join in, I have elected to start the cruise in Swansea, and end it in Brooklyn.

Overview:

10:30 am start at Bent street Swansea, using the various coast roads to go through the Entrance, and Woy Woy, we will make our way to Brooklyn in the most direct but interesting way possible. ( Old Pacific Freeway towards the end ;-) ).

We will be stopping just after Woy Woy for photo's in a car park on the lakeside, ( see map ).

We should arrive at Brooklyn near the marina club for lunch and the end of our cruise in 2-4 hours approx, depending on traffic/photo stop/fuel stops.

I did a variant of the cruise way back in the day on my P's. I will be doing a pre-run probably mid september to make sure, but if memory serves there shouldnt be any problems what so ever. anyone keen for the Pre-cruise please let me know, I would love to have a few other people who know the plan/want to take photo's involved in the hosting process to make this go as smoothly as possible.

For sydney siders, we are finishing right near the mooney mooney ramp, so its all easy as pie to get home.

For those of us further south, I am staying in a hotel nearby so as to enjoy my morning and be in a position to arrive at the meeting point early.

I know I said the end of september, but work knocked me back since everyone seems to have holidays during that time. Fingers crossed it should be a nice, clean sunny day like the last one.

As per usual, we will be conducting ourselves in proper SAU fashion, And I hope to see a lot of you there. Any questions feel free to PM me or smash them out below.

P.S. Terry has asked his N1 if it would be possible to run the forefront of this cruise. N1 said it depends on how his tuning session goes. THEREFORE, and not that i dont appreciate Terry and N1, I am still open for anyone else running a GTR who would love to run the pack if Terry's unable to do it.

Thanks again everyone

Glad to see another well thought cruise Josh.

Hopefully should be all good for the day

Tis wise Josh that you have a Plan B. Even the best laid out plans can run amok when there isn't some sort of backup (as we realised a couple of weekends ago). Your planning appears immaculate as always!

[GTR-N1]

Chris is right. I'll PM you soon

[BLKYLO]

Pre-cruise happening this week/next week, pm me if interested.

Also still waiting for news on backup GTR.

Thanks everyone, starting to get stoked!!

[Howaitonaito]

I know alot of you aren't fans of us but can I turn up in my V series maxima.... Eeerrr.... I mean skyline?

[BLKYLO]

Yeah no worries! S chassis as well.

[AikenLugonn]

I am a definite for this...have even had the crucial approval from wifey. Will think on whether or not I drive up the night before, will depend on whether or not I am bringing my son as well.

[BLKYLO]

I will be staying at the ibis hotel up at wallsend, a decent 30 minutes from the starting point.

As for the scout run, this wednesday i will be leaving my place at about 6-7 am, and takes me about 1hr 45 minutes to get to the M2 turnoff for newcastle.

Anyone keen to come please pm me so we can arrange a meet up.

[BLKYLO]

Pr-cruise completed,

Finishing Venue booked,

Very, VERY excited.

Everyone please cross your fingers for another beautiful day for cruise day!!

Will be awesome if it was anything like today

[kaneryan]

How many people you got so far?

[BLKYLO]

Just quickly flicking through, maybe 5 including me? Hopefully bob comes along.

Its still early days yet, 4 weeks till the weekend. I book things pretty far in advance lol,

I am aware that world time attack is on that weekend as well, so we will see. But its just a fun drive on a sunday socialising.

I will be making an event and posting it on FB, to try and draw attention to it.

My last event had around 15 cars turn up, so who knows.

Will be an awesome day!!

[Notorius]

Count me in.

[25RBGT]

I got few mates 31, 33 and my 34. But unfortunately my 34 gt4 is being converted to stagea rb25det Neo and manual awd box on 13th.

Prob won't be finished in time.

But if it is prob be 3 more coming along. We are all on the coast.

Pie in the sky should be a stop man.

[BLKYLO]

Would be great to have you guys come along !!

Unfortunatly i might have to chuck pie in the sky on to next year, i wasnt %100 sure what good cruise stops where around the coast so thats why i went with the brooklyn stop. Add on top of that i dont have an exact number on cars, and the route and stops i have picked out can accomadate a decent amount of cars just in case we get a big turn up. I was originally going to have us finish up at berowra, but i couldnt find somewhere decent, and brooklyn is at least on the water

I would have been keen if i had time to do another pre-run for a change but with midnight club this weekend i just dont have a chance heh.

Definitly will keep it in mind for next year so thanks for the heads up.

I would also like to announce that jason is coming, so if he brings his camera there will be some awesome shots at the end of the day.

Keep hoping the weather holds out.

[25RBGT]

All good mate,

Sounds like it's under control. Hope my cars done on time.

[kaneryan]

ive also got a few mates that are probably going to come along aswell, s14, s15, and an evo 8
