Aiming for a 9:00am departure from Yatala, so if you want to stuff your face with the infamous pies then allow extra time for that.And just to save you scrolling back...KILLARNEY CRUISESUNDAY 11 JANUARY 2009WHATTravel from Yatala to Queen Mary Falls via Boonah, then on to Killarney & Warwick and back to BrisbanePLEASE NOTE:One section of this cruise is on a bit of a goat track, although it is all sealed the road is very narrow, tight and undulated. If you’re vehicle is ‘dumped on its arse’ and/or has ridiculously large mags then this cruise may not be for you. Having said that you can be comforted by the fact that it will not be treated as a targa rally and if there are any hazards I’ll be the first one to find them!Also if there is any rain about or has been a significant amount the night before then we will re-route the cruise and skip this part - possibly head straight for Warwick then on to Toowoomba. I’ll make this call if necessary by 7:00 am on the day and will send everyone a SMS, so if I don’t have your number please ensure it’s entered in the RSVP system.MEETING AT YATALA - 8:30AMYatala Pie Shop - 48 Old Pacific Hwy, YatalaTake exit 38 off the M1. Northbound; go straight through the roundabout (second exit) and you’ll see it on your right-hand sideSouthbound; right at the roundabout (fifth exit, go under the motorway), then right at the second roundabout (second exit) Google MapAiming for a 9:00 am departure.WHAT TO BRING- car- occupants (optional)- drinks/morning tea if desired- lunch (BYO if desired)- uhf radio (see below for group purchase on these) - plenty of fuelTHE FINE PRINT In order for every body to have a good time, a few rules have been implemented. Failure to abide by these rules will ensure you are not invited to future events held by FordXR6Turbo.com.The reasons for these rules are:Safety - We don't want to put any of our members, and the general public in any danger.Public Perception - We do not want the Ford XR6 Turbo community to face the same ridicule and stereotypes other car communities face.The rules are simple:Obey all laws whilst on the cruise; this means no speeding, no overtaking over double lines etc... Any breaches will be reported to the local police.There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members.Use the Buddy system; always make sure you can see the car behind you. This will give people behind you an indication on where to turn and to make sure nobody gets lost or left behind.CB Radios; if you don't have one, follow the maps and directions given out. If you do have one, please limit chatter during the twisty parts of the cruise. This will allow the cruise leader to relay information about road conditions, upcoming obstacles, etc. efficiently.By attending this cruise you agree not to hold FordXR6Turbo.com, its Administrators, Moderators, Cruise Organisers, or Owners responsible/liable for any damage and/or grief sustained (simply; if you stuff up it's your fault, not ours).If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask before the cruise.Total distance is about 300km.

These details are only visible to myself and other mods/admins.UHF RADIOS Timmy has organised a bargain on the 0.5 watt UHF handheld radios (UH036sx); $20.00 each.

Guest Spinifex Guests Posted 02/01/09 07:25 AM Share Posted 02/01/09 07:25 AM Re: dumped on it`s arse. If you slowed down, the couple of short flood ways that pose the biggest risk would be no prob. Seriously though, a stock Typhoon would CHISEL them at any kind of real pace, so descretion is the better part of valour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
