Details:

The cruise is designed to be a tour of the Huon valley. We will be meeting in Hobart and then travelling down to Huonville via Blackmans bay, Margate and turning at Woodbridge, this will cut us across an old Targa Tas stage on the back way into Cygnet. We will then head around the river into Huonville where we will stop and have some lunch. Lunch will be a “choose your own” as there are plenty of bakeries and cafes around. After lunch we will head back to Hobart on the Huon hwy turning off and taking the old Longley Targa stage before coming back into Hobart.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Cheers
Tim

Was a great turn out today. We were lucky that the weather held off for us. Was great to see some new members, I hope you enjoyed the outing with the club and will come back again

Also a special thanks to the GT club for making the effort to bring a nice selection of cars out for the run.
I forgot to take my camera, but i think i counted 21 cars for the day. hopefully a couple of the others will be able to post some pictures up.

Cheers

Cheers Tim, was a nice drive. Good to see a few Gt's out. I had to turn the stereo off and have the windows down most of the way so I could listen to the one in front of me accelerating.

Hi Tim and man with a camera like an elephant, and also a GT in BLOOD, nice to meet you both Sunday, I had a great day. Apoligise in advance - names and my memory are like sands through the hour glass...........................................

I was very impressed by the roll up, speaks louder than words the fact you boys & girls can get so many people together for a Sunday drive! Everyone I spoke with was friendly and made me feel welcome... which is always good when you first go to something like this.

There was some nice machinery there, the early model GT's were tough, as was the note coming from Tims' wound up windsor - coming through the twisties between Oyster Cove and Cygnet. When I realised you had a car load of passengers I was very impressed, those poor bastards that drew the short straw for the back seat............

Thanks for the opportunity, and to Mad Mike in the 'phoon for inviting me along. I think I could even sense some envy in Mad when he told me about the other Typhoon with 310 at the rears................ now you know what it's like my friend ha ha ha

Best regards, and thanks again to all invloved

Hi Shane,

Glad you enjoyed the day. I was more than happy with the day. We had about 4 new guys including yourself come along and 'check' us and the club out to see what we are all about. Its great to get some feedback from you.

Yeah well, the road from oyster bay was fantastic. Till the renta car got in the way :( that was just pure arrogance on their behalf.
I think jason enjoyed being in the back, although he was rather quiet, so i will take that as a good sign, alex on the other hand, i dont think he was expecting it to be quite as... well... lets say 'sprited' :P

I still havent heard the car from the outside since the new gear went into the engine, had a few reports back that it sounds great. Always brings a smile to my face when i get told that. I cant wait till i can get the capa edit and a dyno tune, then it will be a little more fun to drive.

Hopefully we will see you along at another event in the near future.

ps. The GT looks fantastic in EGO. I love the metallic fleck in the paint.

Cheers
Tim

Nice to see some new faces and see the early GT's. The road was brilliant, wish it was longer. Next cruise if the earlies show up again I will bring the XB out, leave the TS at home, (is that ok?)
