Charity Car Cruise 30th Nov Official Breast Cancer Cruise


Recommended Posts

Have you got anything in writing from the authorities stating that no cars will be defected if they are part of your event? Some mates and I might be keen on going, but not if it turns into a full on defect station like some other events in the past.

Have you got anything in writing from the authorities stating that no cars will be defected if they are part of your event? Some mates and I might be keen on going, but not if it turns into a full on defect station like some other events in the past.

um i really dont think you would be able to get something like that....they aren't exactly going to say "yes we will let illegally modified vehicles drive on public roads because its for a good cause"

So I guess the organizer should change the event details then - I'd hate for people to bring their pride and joys to the event only to have their asses reamed.

I figured as much though, no such arrangement could possibly be reached as you are not putting on a stationary show - you are driving on a public road.

Gee... very encouraging... I guess if I come I should keep on cruising then.

Promogirlz Promotions has been working on getting this event right for months, it is planned and well thought out!

AS THE ORGANISER of this event - i expect all vehicles to be on their best behaviour, the local police have never given me any problems with my Skyline.

But obviously ppl need to be aware that it only takes one person to ruin it for everyone else as long as no one drives recklessly i dont see why there would be any issues as the Local Police and all organisations know all about it.

This is not Eastern Creek Dragway, I encourage you and your mates to come as this is going to be a FABULOUS DAY.

Off that subject and onto something else i have driven the route today to ensure that the road has no major damage etc

I would like to report that

a. There are no potholes the road has actually just been resealed recently

b. The Route is extremely scenic and beautiful :D)

c. It takes just over an hour for the round trip

Please find the Map below

Same as every other organised charity event that has happened lately.

The only time a charity event like this went bad was AFTER the event had finished...

A couple of years ago Hot4s arranged a cruise up to the Central Coast, and the cops set up a massive defect station at the Gosford turn-off. There was a big whinge about it on car forums, since the cops had said (or the organisers had said the cops had said) that they wouldn't be defecting people.

Of course, the idiots blocking off the F3 in the afternoon for rolling runs on the way home means it was probably pre-emptively deserved.

I was a definite maybe for this, but unfortunately it's on the same day as the V35 cruise. :D

I'll be there in spirit. If there's one thing I believe we should be taking care of in this world, its boobs.

Promogirlz Promotions and Models is holding a Car Cruise Charity Day “Cruise for Christine” on the 30th of November to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation.

The cruise for Breast Cancer Awareness is on Sunday the 30th of October 2008 and starting at The Mean Fiddler.

The cost is still $10 per car. Open to all makes and model cars, bikes etc.

If you are worried about going on the cruise you dont have to partake in it. You can come for the car show in the morning and after lunch.

Its about raising money for a good cause.

Regards

Promogirlz

no probs, just cos u mentioned 2 different dates in ur above post...do we have an idea on how many cars are attending?

We are expecting over 50 cars hoping for about 200 but as you know with these things - ppl decide in the morning, we are praying the weather will behave as well as this will obviously impact the turnout.

This Cruise is a little diff from other events so im hoping for a terrific turnout.

Promogirlz Promotions and Models is a new Company in the Northwest providing models for Hot 4's, Fusion Electronics, The Mean Fiddler, Unseen TV we have a Silver Nissan Skyline that we use to get from a - b and will also be interested in talking to ppl on the day about doing a track run in the new year.

If anyone wants any further info don't hesitate to ask.

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
