You're thinking into this too much Ruxis.

SAU can be held liable when they organise a cruise because they are the organisation in charge of the forum.

The fact is, a user on a car forum won't be held liable for organising an unofficial cruise simply because there is no proof that it was you exactly who posted the car meet.

Whilst it might have come from your IP address, doesnt mean you were the one using your account at that time.

I'd think that you can only be held liable if you admit to being at fault for organising the meet at the scene of the accident. That is considered evidence.

For once benji you have made sense, hmm alright if I post an event (:P) I'll do it under a blanket so no one can see me or prove it was me. Some mother f**ker broke in posted it and left!!

Haha mat that rule doesn't apply to me, I'm not as... Special as you :P

I would be really supprised official or not that the organiser would get in trouble unless any action they did actually caused a problem.

for example,

if someone turns up, acts like a dick, crashes and kills him self and someone else in the process through no fault of his own, i cant see anyone else being blamed but the driver at fault.

although if the event put attendees or the public in danger through the planned actions, ie maybe stopping a whole bunch of cars in the middle of the road on a blind corner that causes an accident.. well that could be another story, but i think there would be so many loop holes to this that would put blame back onto drivers directly involved for there own actions.

its not like were blocking of roads and using them to race illegally. were just driving from point a to point, people are responsible for them selves...

this is just my 2 cents, and would be very suprised to hear that an organiser had ever been held responsible for anything going down legally in the past where actually activites were legal.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
