HellionXR6T I'm Back!! Thats right, long over due! :) Lifetime Members 4,348 Member For: 22y 2m 19d Gender: Male Location: West Brisbane Posted 02/04/03 11:30 PM Share Posted 02/04/03 11:30 PM Hi fellow BNE XR owners.Any thoughts on the next photo/get together event?I know we just had one but a lot of ppl said there was not enough notice. Although "Goose" was fantastic in going beyond the call of duty taking charge and organizing access to the wharf and everything else, (Thanks dude, it was pretty cool), if we had waited maybe a little longer, we would have had more of a turn out. Lets fill the whole wharf next time :D Goose has also had a few other good ideas for the next one.Lets have an impressive turnout next time, show the other states what we are made of hey?* Allow enough time for people with families and commitments to work out a date the majority can attend. At least a months notice?* Have a picnic/BBQ so other family members, wives, kids..etc. can enjoy themselves more. * 2 locations, therefore if people don't want to sit around while we all go 'snap happy', there's always the BBQ later on. Can be a large park with a lot of facilities, BBQ's (always handy), swings for the young ones or even someones place if they are kind enough to offer. Even drinkies later on? Who knows.Once again, I'm rambling on....but...Go back to the last thread (Brisbane Get Together/Photos) with the Phantom and Blueprint, look at my first image....THERE....Great place to have a photo shoot. not much room, little dirt/gravel but nothing too threatening.....Day or Afternoon. At dusk would be an excellent time when all the oil refinery lights across the river are turned on, then there is the other location where I posted a pic of my XR, perfect, tons of room and mass potential pic opportunities. Goose was saying that we could go here at night, have a couple of cars supplying additional light, take it in turns...etc.What do you think? Do you know of a great location? Any other activities that you can think of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd find out if it was a good idea to delete my rear wing, as I'm late braking into turns 1 & 3.Regards Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats right, long over due! :) Lifetime Members 4,348 Member For: 22y 2m 19d Gender: Male Location: West Brisbane Posted 08/04/03 03:49 AM Author Share Posted 08/04/03 03:49 AM LOL,I'm back, thought this was going to be a dead thread for a while. :D This is Brisbane, not a chance. OK.....Hmmm QLD Raceway??? Well OK, lol, I'll guess I'll be sitting on the sidelines watching you all. Hmmm, a XR6 NA? "YAY" That's it. I need to win some cash as it must be done, need to put some teeth into this b**ch of a car. Bugger the turbo idea. The (Bl**dy Awful) Phantom is going supercharged......That's right boys and girls, everyone that loves ford and has a better pay cheque than I has a turbo....XR6 Supercharged? No takers so far?$5,000 is all I need and watch out kiddies!!!!! Hell I'll have to construct my own badge to place under the "XR6" logo. :o Think I can handle that.Still searchin' for a digi camera.Goose? What happened to your beast?????? :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
