« on: April 07, 2011, 05:14:58 PM »
Yes we are going again!
This 7-8 Day event is being held again next year (2012) around Feb/March.

It's about 1600kms of THE BEST Zed driving roads in Australia. Coupled together with great accommodation, awesome food (& Drink! *hic*), good company & our Zeds!!!
All finally finishing up with a track day at Symmons Plains Raceway!

For a car & driver you will need around $1800 in funds. Passengers around $800 to $1000pp.
This covers EVERYTHING: Return Spirit of Tassie overnight boat trip, Accommodation, Petrol, Food & Drink, Track day at Symmons Plains & all spending money.
Craig (620Z) is the event coordinator for this trip, so rest assured the organisation will be second to none!

Ha Ha
Well done Lurch. Geez you get in early on these things. Cost wise you might get away with it for $1,200- or so. You can get detailed costs closer to the time. But between that and Lurch's quote will cover it. At present I am pretty sure everyone who came last time will be on again. Plus a few from ACT.
A truely awesome trip is in stall as usual and this time of year the weather normally turns it on for a swim or two.  :D

Who is Jane travelling with?  It will be uncomfortable if she is planning on trying to sit in MY seat for he trip  ::)

Mine will be ready by then anyway   8)
Zeds are more fun than women!!   You know I'm right, but you're too scared to admit it!!

I reckon your lap would be pretty comfy... but you may require ear plugs for the trip...

OK Zed freaks,
This post has been quiet for a while now. Bit of time now. So I thought I would resurrect it and start the planning for the big trip in mid to late Feb 2012.
Please register your interest here in the coming weeks as we will have to confirm this years route and start making some accommodation/boat bookings.
This is always a great trip and as always we will finish our final day of the trip at Symmons Plains Race track. I am pretty sure most people who went 2 years ago will be coming again. I will confirm in the next few weeks.
List:-
Craig                     260Z V8
Gordon                 GTR
Lurch & Jane         240Z Injected
Johnboy
Bruce with his new motor?  Zed  260?
David Chambers      350Z  TT
Rob Creighton ... maybe   240Z
Possibly 2 forom SA I will have to pm them.
Scott from ACT? Does he have any money? Hmmm maybe.
Any slackers from Tassie got a Zed going to join us for the whole trip?
Couple other maybe's at this stage.

Let Lurch or myself know or post a hello on here if interested and I can send you some details. Either way I will put some more stuff up on here after I get back from Bathurst. Go Lowndsy.   ;)

Hey Lurch and Tassie fans. I was thinking we might have to have an afternoon/evening BBQ at my place in early November to meet and discuss the Tassie trip. Then we can lock down some details being exact date, route, accommodation etc. Lurch I will give you a call in the next week or two.
Cheers   ;)
