    List and Date updated. Please tell me if theres a problem with this date. I will scout the run prob on thursday night if anyone wants to come along. Bear in mind itll be a scouting run so theres a high chance we will get lost.
  5. dont you allready have a 34 GTT man? also, whats wrong with AWD? its the bomb From my gf's house at springwood I hear wheel lockups all the time, springwood is really bad for hoons, driving my GTR around there I allways draw some sort of attention from someone be it good or bad....

    Details Update: Meeting Place: This time round we will only be doing one meetup point, this is to allow me to get pizza for everyone. I cannot go to the southside meetup and get pizza at the same time, as it would be cold for the northside meetup Meetup Place and Time: 9th of feb, 7pm, Bunnings Warehouse, Stafford Road, Stafford. Near the car lovers. I will be waiting there with pizza for thoes who place there orders now. I am willing to go on trust and have people pay me once they get there, but, please do not abuse this. If you are not going to be there, *please let me know in advance*, espically of you have ordered a pizza. Find attached to the list bellow people's pizza orders. List of stops: 1. Bunnings wearhouse stafford, 450 Stafford Rd 4053 2. Large BP on waterworks Road 3. Jollies Lookout 4. The lookout ontop of clear mountain. Its kind of just a dirt patch so im not sure if it has a name 5. Mt Mee lookout. Great lookout, has clear public facilities, good view, heaps of parking, a little undercover area. Good spot for photos. 6. BP we stoped at in the december run (cant remember the name). Cruise will stop here, people are free to make there way home in small groups. Roads/turns Taken: 1. Waterworks road 2. Mt Nebo Road 3. Arrive at jollies lookout 4. Turn left from jollies when leaving. Follow this road until you get to the samford turn off. Take this. Be advised, tight corners, when they say 60 kph they really do mean it on some of thoes corners. 5. Follow the road your on once you get off the mountain until you hit a large roundabout with a caltex on the left hand corner. Turn left at this roundabout. Please try to limit BOV / Noise through here as were going up the guts of samford and im sure the residents wouldnt appreciate all the racket. 6. Turn right onto Eatons Crossing Road. Follow this road until you see clear mountain road. Well signed. 7. Follow clear mountain road until you arrive at the top. The lookout is a sharp bend round a blind right hand 90 degree corner, it has a large dirt patch to the left with a great view and a hotel on the right ontop of the hill the corner go's around. 8. Continue in direction we were going before we stoped at the lookout. This will take you to the bottom of the mountain. Turn left and follow this for about 5 - 10 mins, you will arrive in dayboro where the road will bend round to the right with another road going off to the left. Follow the turn to the right, the the next left, then follow the signs to mt mee. After stoping at the meeting point, continue on down mt mee road until you arrive at another T intersection, turn right and follow your nose, it will lead you to the BP and then to brisbane / home. In total last night we left at about 8:30 and got home at about 12:30. We didnt do nebo, just headed straight out to samford, but we got lost once and I had to pull over for 30 mins when the ECU decided it didnt like vortex 98 so the whole run should take about 4 hours or so. Thats all for now. Works busy atm so ill update the blanks and stuff later on. List: IanB - Super Supreme Karen + Marc John + Shane mrbenno ? (Didnt actually say he was coming, but it is implied?) Dan_B phatboi2010 booosted33 wolfwood MagicMikeZ32 hrd-hr30 + ? AzzurrA - Hawaiian on Pan ZENNON Nate79 m0rt - meatlovers + hawaiian Staffo - Ham and Cheese maclarenf1 silverbulletR33 Rhinorebel Spaar scooby36 rusk Steve jlnewton - maybe? Zathris monkey FOG35 gtt23 - maybe SirSkyline Destero - plain cheese on thin Ground Rules: A few rules will be enforced on these runs, the usual obvious ones so that we dont draw unwanted attention / police attention - no burnouts, skids of any sorts, drifting is expressly banned on the mountain (there thin roads, there will be at least 20 cars there, and theres allways traffic + blind corners). Your free to take it at your own pace and the front group will be taking it fairly briskly, but if you want to go faster then the person infront of you, make sure you overtake them in a safe manner. If there not going fast enough for you, thats no excuse to tailgate them or try and push them.
  8. I also want to head west at some stage, prehaps march?
  9. Mt Mee is something I havent done alot of, but I think a cruise starting at the gap and finishing up at mt mee via clear mountain road would be a great cruise. Whereis.com.au says its 77 odd km's of twisties then the drive home. Would be a full night, about 350 km's of driving I reckon, which is good because ppl complained the last one was too short... Full Route: Waterworks road -> Mt Nebo Road -> Samford turnoff -> samford -> clear mountain road -> mt mee (will have to scout this bit)
  10. ooh i like this one.... start at the gap, waterworks road, head up nebo, down the samford way (great twisties there) then through clear mountain and then out to mt mee Will be a massive cruise!
  11. Hey clear mountain - if you keep going it eventually leads out to mt mee doesnt it? Im planing next months run
  12. Im thinking clear mountain and/or mt mee for the next one.
  13. im going to assume you mean file transfer protocol. Because personally I know when I call the police for help I want them to be there to help me, previous track records nonwithstanding. Id call it a necessary evil.

  15. Have you ever known a tyre merchant not to tell you the tyres you got were top of the line? Every single time I went down to bob janes and the like on my old car I was told that the maxxus or tornados were "some of the best" tyres he had ever seen and then he charged me my spleen for them. I have a new tyre contact these days, he gets stuff real cheap. Ill be ringing him when the current shitters wear down, and seeing how I go up nebo 4 times a week that wont be too long hopefully
  16. nah im back on normal civilized hours now thank god...
