THE 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:

  1. Safety - We don't want to put any of our members, and the general public in any danger.
  2. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.

Let me know if you're attending by posting in this thread, first post will be updated as we go.

And just to reiterate, you need a UHF that's fully charged/fresh batteries. No exceptions.

There will be a few spares available on the night but it's a good idea to not count on these. You can pickup a 0.5 watt handheld jobbie from places like Tandy/Dick Smith which are fine for receiving (just can't transmit as far as the more powerful ones). Or if you want something decent I recommend Prestige Communications (They are in Perth but include free express post)

Or, if there's enough interest we may be able to do another mini-group-buy through our local dodgy spare parts supplier. :howbig:

There is a show and shine on that night, I believe Karl and Matt were going to that. Maybe we could end the cruise there, it's at Capalaba...

Either way I'd prefer to cruise :msm:
