N1GTR Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Go to your local $2 shop and buy a doona/thick blanket. Put that over the back seat if you can't be bothered taking the seat out. That will protect your seat fabric. Then put a jack in, and fill the rest with wheels haha. If you're heading down with a mate (or have someone coming who will let you borrow theirs) then I'd suggest bringing one jack and sharing it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/401924-s-a-u-n-s-w-texi-sos-15th-july-2012/page/5/#findComment-6408744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have my neighbours one in my shed, it's one of the big workshop jacks, but if there will be others there that ppl don't mind us using it may save the hassle, we are cruising from Newcastle So the less we carry the better And yeah, I reckon covering the seat is the go, too lazy to remove it!

Anything else really needed on the day? Or just turn up and make an ass of myself? Have a good breakfast, we have bbq for lunch. Also a few of the regulars go to dinner after at a local steak place, you're welcome to come along - we start eating about 6pm and finish by 8pm so you'll be getting home a bit later but it's totally your call. That goes for anyone really, any club members come along and budget $50 for food and a drink or two Bring a hat and sunscreen if you're prone to sunburn. Other than that - just turn up and don't be afraid to ask questions if you aren't sure what to do. It's very straightforward in the morning though; get there with time to spare, find a spot for your stuff, empty the car out and put the wheels on you want to use, then join the line for scruitineering and sign on (license check etc, bring club membership card), then go back to your spot and wait for drivers brief. EDIT: Don't forget to bring the correct clothing for driving (long sleeves and enclosed shoes etc as in the supp regs) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/401924-s-a-u-n-s-w-texi-sos-15th-july-2012/page/5/#findComment-6408822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
