run home was good. no traffic like usual on a sunday.

what did everyone think overall?

personally there were a few mistakes on my part. which I will correct on the next cruise.

the ending I got a bit out of whack as I was trying to raise the other two cars via two way and missed a turn.

the UHF radio that I had (thanks andrew!!!) were commercial items . range was great ontehm as I was talking to brad and andrew whilst they were still on the hill whilst john and I were already on the flats. I had not idea what band they were on but it was not the 460mhz band. for the 3 of us using them they worked well and kept car spacing fairly even. not sure what was happening on ch8 UHF.

the road to hunchy (razorback rd) was a blast when I did it in the van and a HELL of a lot better in a R32. the astra driver that was in front of us realised quite quickly that there were a lot of cars behind him and moved out of the way.

I had a blast and I know that John (isola) was having his share of fun as well. colin you are a mad man !!

thanks for the support from the SAU team and you guys!!! without you it would not have happened. keep watching as there is another in the works!!

I have a SW and border run already in the mix. border run has already been mapped all I have to do is set a weekend aside to finalise the run before opening it up to the public.

for the next one I will have a 5w hand held UHF and the commercial units.

keep the feedback coming!!

It was a good day and a great drive. Razorback was well fun (even though you were hunting for a brake pedal on the passenger floor, Chris ;) ).

Looking forward to another one!

And Kenny, you bitch... where was my hello?! Actually... what car was yours?

Maaate, I was sitting opposite Chris on the table, my car was the wine red R32 GTR, OZR32 number plates. Where were you mang?

I was in the lead car with Chris. Red 32 with tri spoke wheels.

And I was sitting at one end of the table. I was looking for a white stag!

Hey Chris,

Other than those minor things (which I didn't really notice) it was a really fun way to spend a day, and man were those lunches HUGE. I'll be attending again, maybe in the wedge next time. :)

I know a few people took pics / videos on the day, any chance of some links or something??

there is a facebook page for it. search SAUQLD . if it wont let you add things - make request via the page and I'll sort it from there.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
