Getting in contact with one of the guys I am close with will work.

I'm still not sure what to say, ive been to this thread a few times and not posted the reply I wrote.

I feel like words cannot express the way this has and will affect people. I guess all I can say is that from the brief chats I've had with these young men I can very honestly say they were genuinely sincere and passionate young men, and we could not ask for nicer people to hang out with and represent the club. I hope that Alex and the families do not deal with this entirely alone, and know that a lot of people are here when you are ready to talk.

Rest In Peace, always in our thoughts.

Thank you everyone for posting your messages of support here.

I have met some of you before with Tom, and you have painted a beautiful memory of the man who i gave my love to.

We were partners, lovers, best friends, and co drivers. Tom will be forever remembered.

Gerard had become a close friend over a short period of time, and i will never forget the quality of man that he was.

I know they're both up there at the big race track in the sky - covered in grease working on their cars and racing them on the track as they always loved.

Thankyou again everyone for your support - it is wonderful to see how loved these two men were and are.

Sheri xoxo

Yes there are a few things planned for Tom and Gerard.

A thursday night memorial cruise will be held later down the track, for now the families are beginning the preparations for the final farewells.

Alex had organised a day at Wakefield Speed off the Streets for Gerards birthday - this will now be a memorial for Tom and Gerard.

20th May - Wakefield park.

just joined the fbook group about the upcoming trackday, didnt know them personally but the loss of anyone in the community in such tragic circumstances is a blow felt by all members.

Obviously i cant compare my concern with the pain felt by their loved ones and those who knew them well but it at least makes us all pause and reflect on the sadness of the event and how close we all are to those shiny pearly garage doors sometimes. I for one will be taking the next pac/nasho run at a more sedate pace and not taking the joy i get out of the sport for granted.

RIP boys..

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

      SAU NSW - R U OK? Southern Highlands Cruise

      By Matt Z · Posted

      Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* 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 many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS 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 misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
