Hey guys,

Account finally got approved...

I'm Andrew - I know a few of you already, but will be good to catch up with you guys. I'm running a white XR4 with blue stripes.

Happy with whatever is planned - see you all at Milton at 4pm...

Cheers

Should be able to manage that! The great thing is we all have different cars, not one car is identical so we've got such a good mix of Fiesta models. Glad we have an XR4 too!

Well I'm off to attempt to make my car look presentable...

Just got home. Note to self, don't drink Energy Drinks on 2 hour trips when you have a bladder like a bloody female! Three stops later I have learnt my lesson. Cruise was an absolute blast, finally people who don't call my car a hairdresser car. Although I've never been called a hairdresser myself, thanks Trent, must pretty styling for a country boy then!

Was great to see you again Tenille, and great to meet some great guys with great cars. Big thank you to Steve though, the guys a genious and even stated back to photograph our cars even though the guy has kids at home. Legend fella!

I think I can honestly say my car is the fastest and sounds the best! NOT!

I have bought a XR4 spoiler and not mounted it yet, but the double sided tape still sort of works, I wanted it on for the photo shoot, and at one particular time the spoiler fell off and the rear wiper blade caught it!!!

Absolutely awesome one guys - thanks for a great afternoon. Been a while since I've done any enthusiastic driving, I was going through withdrawal...

A massive honourable mention to Steve - your pictures are damn good. Let us know when they're uploaded and I'll grab a CD. Thanks for coming mate, appreciated.

Dishonourable mentions to Commodore drivers and Spring Hill traffic lights...

Definitely up for another run whenever everybody is keen. Thanks again for a great time. Hopefully you'll have that back box by then Danny?

Bloody tempting. Your exhaust sounds awesome. I think connecting my illuminated gear lever and illuminated door sills is my first pont of call though, then fixing my electrical issues! But definitely tempting!

HAHA gotta love the Human Machine Interface that doesn't turn off and leaves all the interior lights on! I now have a size 10 spanner in my car. You just want my cars sexy body Tenille, you've only human

So I thought I'd post up a few snaps. Just with my iPhone 4 camera, have resized them but it leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to high end photography, it's gives you all a general idea though. Next time, I'll get a proper camera. A bloody great afternoon and I'll definitely be in for the next drive. I was a little worried I'd be surrounded by tools, but I think I'm more of a tool than any of you. Well except for Trent! Kidding! All that hardcore third gear revving and still using only 5.3L/100km!

Sorry I haven't done my BIG BIG thanks to Steve for his efforts, may all our strength go into fixing his computer!!

Nice photos Danny, even for a dodgy iPhone, (Blackberry man)
That extended shot of all cars in the carpark sort of worked out how I wanted it to in my head!!!

Port of Brisbane here we come next time..

You got slaughtered! I had to call you to make sure you didn't go over the edge and you didn't pick up so I thought you'd went over! Then you zoomed out of no where and caught right up to us.

Thanks Corey, I'll stick with my iPhone 4 though man! Be sure to post up the pictures you got, you took some of mine so can't wait to see how they turned out
