MOVIE NIGHT @ THE SAU:NSW CLUBHOUSE

--> A Project Wifey* Charity Event <--

Since this is a charity event, we are opening it up to all forum members. Normally the SAU clubhouse is reserved for annual financial members only.

We have this terrific clubhouse so let's start using it. We will use a projector and small sound system for the movie. However, since our clubhouse is currently empty, we need you to bring your own cushion to sit on or folding chair.

A charity contribution for Proj Wifey of $7/person is requested but not mandatory.

Where: SAU Clubhouse - 175 Parramatta Rd. Haberfield (on Jap Link Motors Lot)

When: Saturday April 2 at the SAU Clubhouse

Clubhouse will open at 7 PM for socialising prior to the movie. Movie to start around 8 PM

What to bring: This will be a BYO C&B (Chair & Beverage) event.

Parking: Parking needs to be done on side streets around the area. If you're not comfortable leaving your Skyline out of view then catch a ride with friends or drive a daily.

The Rules:

We want to portray to everyone in the neighborhood what a responsible club SAU is so no silly business.

Burn-outs, engine reving, loud stereos etc will not be tolerated.

The SAU club house is located on Jap Link's business premises. The lot, business space and cars are off limits.

General responsible behavior and good etiquette is expected.

*Proj Wifey: A lot of you will know that another car ran into my wife's MX5 at a track day. I'm running a series of charity events to offset some of the financial loss. Contributions to my personal fund raiser are totally optional. We will run a few of these charity movie nights and then they will resume as a normal club social activity. At that time they will return to annual financial members only events.

Initial D is a great suggestion. I have another list in the works that will be added over time but generally we'll keep the voting to around 6-8 movies as any more gets a bit too spread out.

I'm sure we could have more than one movie on the night too :)

... theres always ... Steve McQueen in "BULLIT" ... he did all his own driving in his movies ... & had quite a good race portfolio as well ... the Mustang against the Charger is pretty entertaining for its age ... no trick photography back then except for the odd edit what you see is what you get ... real time car sounds too ... plenty of grunt from the "green pony" ... :) ...

Parking can be on-site after confirmation tomorrow by Eric (having a meeting with Todd and yours truly) > overflow around the corner in quiet Chandos St. :yes:

I just finished ripping my copy of Bullitt. For classics I've also got Le Mans for those McQueen fans out there. I also have the original Gone in 60 Seconds which was really a 2nd rate b-movie but the end chase scene makes the whole movie. (The car lot was actually owned by a friend of the movie producer - he just asked if he could shoot on location - who would have known!) I've yet to find a copy of Grand Prix (James Garner - again great flick for it's age. So maybe we make the next one a classics night. Of course Blues Brothers has to be on that classics list too.

As for two movies - well ask Aggro, that puts me well past my bedtime.

On the parking front, I'm a bit concerned about lot security for Jap Link. Tezza and I will be talking with them to ensure we take appropriate safety precautions since we will be in the club house during the movies. I might want to lock the gate behind us to ensure nothing happens while we on-site.

Leave the logistics to Terry and Me, we'll sort them out.

.... some stuff like this would be good ... PURE SKILL NO ROOM FOR ANY MISTAKE ... :0 ...

Link: Nurburgring in the 60's

.... these open wheelers were very quick & super light ... in my opinion the best Grand Prix racing that theres ever been ... these guys would come over the crest of a hill "airborn" at 250kph just to hit the deck straight into a 4 wheel drift under power into a completely blind corner ... nuts ! ... :0 ...
