I may not make this one as I hope to be in Perth at the V8's and catching up with an old friend Rosco "the fastest Aussie "on" the planet and hopefully the fastest man "on" the planet when he attempts the LSR in Nevada ( planned for 2008 )

Me thinks that I'll have to pull my finger out and come to this one.

Yes I had to put the charger on and the batteries have gone flat in the remote for the satnav. Needed to make sure the battery was OK for tonight as I had to do a shoot for Bosch alternators. Mmmmmmm - I was thinking wouldn't look to good if she wouldn't start when I pressed her button ( thats the GT of course. )and we are advertising alternators.Needed the satnav to as I had to goto some isolated broccali farm in Point Cook. Any way all went well

Great pics Seagull. Any chance you will get your mug on the box again??

Back on topic, I cant wait for the second installment of the Wild Run. Its great that we have so many come along to these types of events, of course this is the case as we are more of a family club that ensures that everyone can enjoy different kinds of events.

Hopefully (like the last one) we can get over 30 cars to the Wild Run #2, of course we get more people to our events (and our club) as we are not just a "Spin Your Wheels" club and families can actually feel welcome and we dont look down on anyone.

:

If there are any new or prosepctive members that want to come along to say hello and see how great these cruises are, we are more than open for you to come along and say G'Day.

tyxr8ute · 13-02-2007, 11:01 PM

G'day all, just got my membership card in the mail so am hoping this will be my first event, this is all provided my damn car arrives or it will be "Angry Walk #1" :jab: However I think the hardest part will be getting through Melbourne to the start point, I don't like Metro traffic!

Grasshoppr · 14-02-2007, 09:24 AM

tyxr8ute I hope you get your wheels in time. I did notice that you ae waiting on an F6 ute... you wont be dissapointed

We love seeing new members and I know that if you get your car in time you will have an awesome time with us.

Probably the best way to get to the starting point is to get off the ring road and work your way through Greensborogh (sp??) or Eltham as this will avoid most of the city traffic.

Hope we see you there.

very well said mate.
i must admit, for me personally, while we had an awesome turnout of 60 odd people and over 30 cars, the real highlight of Wild Run #1 was the amount of wives/girlfriends that came along, and even more so, all the kids that came too.
as 99% of u already know, MRS and I bring junior with us to all club functions where possible, and thats why we enjoy them so much, simply due to the family enviroment.
i reckon junior knows more people at the club do's than me these days...!!

after all, it's always good to have fun with your mates, but it's even better when the wives/girlfriends and the kids are having fun too.

and remember to RSVP to Nikk for this one.
we've got some ripper roads picked out!!

ohh... as BLKPhoon said too, any new members feel free to contact and come along.
u wont be disappointed.

Grasshoppr · 20-02-2007, 10:32 AM

Yeah I think Junior has more fun than us sometimes, especially painting :voldar02:

Xitdxr · 20-02-2007, 10:47 AM

I would come down, but i dont think the car i drive would fit in!

I am working on a new starting technique which seems to be the go to missing some of that lag!!!

MRSXR-8 · 20-02-2007, 03:17 PM

The more the merrier i always say!!! Should be a good day as the roads are very windy & hope you will enjoy the route we take and hopefully we have as many as we did last time!!

If anyone is certain they're going please let me know so i can put your name down.

Thats alright, dont feel bad, i Annihilated a BA XR8 ute the other night, i dont think he was impressed. But im cool with that, line em up again, i can nail the launch well enough to at least get the jump!

On the other side of things, i will come down to have some fun, i might talk to my friends with XR's and convince them to come along!

Let me think about this, sco has an XR6 Turbo on 20's, plus a brand new BMW 320i as a work car. Luc owns an XR5 Turbo, chris owns a BA XR6, plus a few others. I do fine thank u very much, and oh BLKphoon, just remember who's picking u up from the airport in adelaide!!!!!

Xitdxr · 20-02-2007, 06:43 PM

hmmm, i will ask before i do this, i have a few people that i know through the XR5 Turbo club, is it alright if i throw a link to this page? Because i think a few will be interested coming on the run.

ok, sorry, but i'll say this...
remember, this is a social cruise, and dont even think about stuff like that.
otherwise, 'Angry Brett' will pay a visit.

BTW, i wont be taking an FPV or XR product either, will be something completly left-field...

Sorry BGB and 1600GT, I forgot to advise that this talk of dragging only happened off public roads.
