Cdr Zero Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Always ready for a meet, social butterfly that I am Quote
dorifticon Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 what is beforehand? Like, it is a pretty early start, right? Sometimes I am a bit, erm, "under the weather" on sunday mornings... Quote
sco_aus Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Around 8am start. I should be able to swap shifts to make it, so I reckon we should meet up before hand again. Anyone got any suggestions? Quote
chris240 Posted November 13, 2009 Author Posted November 13, 2009 should meet in the city-ish..somewhere close to an egg & bacon roll.. Is Joshs 240 still in Canberra ?? Perhaps Alex could bring it along.. Also Scott, can you sms Scott no2 (Razz)...let him know its on.. Oh & Miika, please try to clean up your engine bay Quote
Surly_Z Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 Hey! Yep my Zed's still up there, I'll send Alex this link and see if he's free to come along. Quote
dorifticon Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 So it is looking like we could have up to 6 zeds at this thing? That would be pretty wicked. Quote
Surly_Z Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Hey! Yep my Zed's still up there, I'll send Alex this link and see if he's free to come along. Alex said he was keen to join you guys. Scott and Chris, I've PM you both his number. He said just to give him a buzz or text to let him know what time you're meeting, what to bring etc. Quote
Rhino73z Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Catching up for a coffee and roll before we head off sounds good to me....we have a few choices in Braddon and plenty of parking. Post up the time and place and i'll be there. Quote
chris240 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 ok what say we meet between 8.00-8.15 outside Officeworks in Mort St Braddon...well leave around 8.45-ish Im not sure whats open on a sunday morning in Braddon other than Maccas but the organisers will have full catering, bbqs coffee etc going all day. Quote
Surly_Z Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Did you guys contact Alex? I'm sure he'd love to tag along in my ride. Quote
chris240 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 I left a detailed message on his mob.. Quote
sco_aus Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Car is rego'd, see you bright and early. Forecast, 50% chance of rain, 32 deg, so i imagine another possible late storm or something. Quote
chris240 Posted November 22, 2009 Author Posted November 22, 2009 well, what a massive day...well over 250 cars on display ! I really cant believe how many car clubs Canberra has.. And the german & Italian car clubs have to have their own separate shows to keep the numbers down Anyway we had Scott , Simon, Miika, Andrew (aka dorifticon) made his first zed appearance and Kevin with his 5 litre 280 from sydney also joined us.. We had a few MIA's which is disapointing....I can only imagine when we get the full contigency of Canberra zeds in one place including Scott No2, Ian S, Brenton, Tony, Alan + 5-6 other we know about, that would make 15 + !! Josh , I believe your baby has brake problems and couldnt be driven by Alex today. Simon & the boys will post up some pics (as my camera is stuffed.) Quote
Cdr Zero Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Not to mention we met a charming fellow in an orange mustang on the way there. Bless him. Quote
sco_aus Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 hehe, he liked to let people know he was there, it sounded fantastic... Was good to take my car for another drive and Miika and I watched Love the beast after wards and it has motivated me to do some more work on my car. Quote
dorifticon Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched Love the beast after wards and it has motivated me to do some more work on my car. Well, seeing the pristine examples of zeds on display and then comparing them to my ratty interior and unpresentable engine bay has "motivated" (read: shamed) me into wanting to do some more work to my car.

sco_aus Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 lol, if you need a hand let me know. Plus i wanna see this R32 of yours Quote
dorifticon Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 lol, if you need a hand let me know. Plus i wanna see this R32 of yours LOL cheers. BTW, I have the same handle on sau, I think my build thread is (for some reason) in the general forced induction performance section. Gives a blow-by-blow of the story so far. Also, there will be an Autospeed article in a week or so... Quote
nizm0zed Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 We had a few MIA's which is disapointing.... Awww, i did turn up eventually (late like usual) Saw scott and had a good chat, unfortunately it just wasnt feasible to cobble the car together and trailer it in. I'll drive it in next year, i promise!!! Quote
chris240 Posted November 24, 2009 Author Posted November 24, 2009 didnt anyone take some photos Quote
