Yeah good job mate. I dont think anybody had problems getting lost this time! I had a really good time and huge credit goes to the organisers!

Definitely preferred not being smack bang in the middle of the city.

seeing as the grand pre was on and all, thought best steer clear from that, but we did base the cruise to go around the city thow

Thanks to all that came out. good to see nearly 50 e-series on a freezing night.

Thanks to Joe for the revamped map, great job mate, was spot on.

Too bad we got kicked out before we got to park n ride lol, ah well, you get that sometimes.

That's about my only gripe for the night, but yeah great cruise all-round.


What time is it :P?

big thanks to everyone who came.
thanks again to Adam and Joe for putting together a great cruise, the weather held out for 90% of the cruise, only getting a bit wet down at williamstown.
a big thanks to all the guys who were reporting back to me on the behaviour aswell, was glad to know i didnt have to be everywhere at the same time.

Awesome event once again Adam and Joe. Freezing weather but none the less the EP82 Turbo loved the cold weather. Good to catch up with existing members and great to meet the new members.
Only made it to the Highpoint and Willi meet point but it was fantastic anyways.

Thanks to Adan and Joe for the great cruise, i stayed the whole time this cruise without getting lost :-) Only 20 cars made it in the end to willy but i guess the cold and wet weather drove some ppl home early.

Didn't get to catch up with everyone as i was very cold and sitting in my car most meet points.

Thanks again Adam and Joe

Thankyou to Adam and Joe for a well organised cruize, it was a first for me and i enjoyed it very much, didn't get to meet most people, nice to meet those i did, but i guess it there is always next time (too bloody cold). Some real horn looking e-series last night! More pics needed.

Awesome cruise. thumbs up to jjm adxelxr and anyone else who organised it. I got back home around 2am had a little run in with a few goons in a commodore and a bottle was thrown. He will be getting an epa fine in the next few weeks.

Some really nice cars there, and some good works in progress. and one crap heap (me!) This cruise will probably be the only one i'll get to attend this year untill gor or perhaps a geelong meet if theres any more. Was great having my mate there to drive back home while i slept and even better putting the clock back an hour once I got home!
