The Plan

Join us nice and early for this busy day of great driving! We are meeting in front of Fantastic Furniture Crossroads, where the Durk's Cafe should be opening at 7:30am for those of you who can’t start a day off without coffee.

We plan on hitting the road at 8:00am, at first down the M31 Hume Highway, before turning off onto the B88 Picton Road to Albion Park.

We aim on arriving at HARS around 9:30am when they open, and are budgeting around 2.5 hours there to allow everyone to look around, grab a bite at Cafe Connie or the nearby El Jannah and grab some gas if needed.

After the break we will head up the A48 Illawara Highway through Macquarie Pass then head down Jamberoo Mountain Road, then turning left onto Jamberoo Road where we will wrap up the day.

From there you can choose to continue onto the highway back home, or join us at Albion Park RSL where the cruise will end.

But what is a HARS open tarmac day?

Tarmac Days involve the static display of some of HARS’ distinctive aircraft. Tarmac Days are also an opportunity to occasionally show action, such as engine runs, and sometimes flying activities. Members of the public will be able to board and sit in some of the aircraft. All exhibits are staffed by HARS guides who can help you enjoy the experience. Pricing for HARS is as follows;

• Adult $30

• Child $15

• Concession $25

• Family $70

Important Stuff

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 track days.

This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia 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.

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
