Posted 26/08/08 10:12 AM Author Share Posted 26/08/08 10:12 AM (edited) Ok...Monday night it is....8.30pm for a 9.00pm start at Caltex Heathcote...we will do the same route only round the other way this time... Depending on how long we spend sitting on our backsides at Maccas, the route shouldnt take longer than about an hour and a half actual driving time so we should all still be tucked up in bed at a reasonable hour. While I appreciate that having as many members as possible is a favourable deal with most cruises, it showed last Friday night, (and the rain made it even worse), that the more runners there is, the harder it is to keep everyone together as a group and yet still maintain enough safe distance between the cars as some of our members are a little more ....err.... conservative... than others....and, to be honest, I dont feel that Monday night will be like your average Sunday arvo family deal...get my meaning.. Originally, this idea started when Steve (mercuryturbo) said he was going to go on his own, not wanting him to get lonely, I said I would go with him, then others wanted to come along too, which Ive got no problem with, provided they realise that there are stages on this route where we can give our cars a bit of a squirt with relative safety (whilst still using common sense of course) and having to stop and wait for stragglers can be a little bit frustrating..... Over to you guys..... Mercury, myself, senna, rapid, ryan and maybe Iconic and Robbo will be there..who else? Oh, and ravenhard....I will be putting a couple more of these night deals together, especially as summer gets closer and the weather gets more favourable...so dont feel left out ok...

If I can handle 560kw at the treads in the wet, with a live axle rear end, in a car built 20 years ago, you bunch of shaft beaters can handle, what, 400 at the rears in a 5 year old car, methinks.....Its a tad harder for me to attend Friday night cruises in Sydney when:a) I live nearly 300klms away, andb) I work Friday nights.Make a cruise on a Saturday night and im there. IVe only been saying that for the last friggin 18 months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
