August 28 Cruise to Castlemaine

[macka'sxr6t]

Bull Boars

Are an Italian sausage made from Beef and Boar meat marinated in an old secret reciepe of wines and garlic spices ect. The Bull Boars that I get are made in Newstead using the old early imagrants reciepe. They are the only ones to get. Yuuuum Not hot just tasty if you like that sort of thing

Mercturbo it's a shame you cannot make it sounds like it's gonna be a great day

PS tomorrows the day that I start the beast wtih the shaker scoop connected to the turbo. Can't wait to hear the induction noise and to see if it "SHAAAAAKES"

OOps cancel that, I just read after I posted that its Sat and not Sun and I cant make it, catch up on the next run

Cheers Rob

Bad luck Rob, Iwas looking forward to catching up.

..........I shouldn't speak too soon either, 'cos if my "cunning plan" falls apart, I'll probably have to work.

Mark.

Dutchie,

Can't you wait to get to Castlemaine before you see the Shaker

If you want I can meet you all at Calder Raceway. NAAAH!!! you'll all have to be patient no speeding either

Seriously guy's I might drive to Calder and meet you at the gate. Gives me another chance to drive the beast.

Hi Macka.........

All sounds good..........

What we can bring is some desert if that suits............?? Let me know.......

As for meeting somewhere, this sounds like a good idea George........

What about meeting Clayton McDonalds on the Princes Hwy opposite the Good Guys eletrical store at say 9.30am......and then meet anyone from the otherside of Melbourne who is coming.........???

Let us know as this is only 8 days away..........

Maybe Miss Aly and BlownBA, we could meet somewhere near CarrumDowns 30 minutes earlier??

I'll leave it up to you guys......

dutchie

PS I can try out the new walkie talkie finally........

Dutchie that sounds good we can all meet at Maccas on Seaford Rd ...Seaford and drive up from there.

Blown BA and Dutchie: How about meeting up at Cranbourne Bunnings and driving down the freeway via Citylink then meeting anyone else at the Shell Service Station just before the westgate bridge? Then travel onto the Western Ring Rd then onto the Calder Fwy to Castlemaine.

Hey Macka, My Grandmother Lives in Cambells Creek just behind the Fire Station!! And friends that live in Newstead.

That's great Macka can't wait to see it....got any under bonnet pics yet

[macka'sxr6t]

No George,

Should have some tomorrow. Just got a few things to tidy up with the Bonnet.

I'll give her a wash then take some snapshots.

I was hoping to have it all jethot coated but I think I'll wait for a while incase we need to alter anything. It's the first one done so I will be suprised if we don't improve modify something after some test cruises

I can let the unit guide us at the least possilble amount of time or else the shortest distance avoiding tollways.......
