Default NQ XR Owners

Is there anyone in the Club that live in NQ Specifically near Cairns/Townsville.

Seems to me that everyone is from around Brisbane.

Am keen to join have the form and everything but won't if there isn't anyone in my neck of the woods.

Hey Nashy,
Join, Join, Join. When I joined, it was Me, Myself, and Me. Got put onto Tucky (eventually), but that was it!

We now have about 20 to 30 members in CQ, and get together at least monthly.
We are more than happy to organise a CQ run up your way sometime early next year, perhaps at Airlie, to meet up with you. When the club gets the website going, I will give you some Townsville contacts, and you guys can do like we do. Sort out some runs, and catch up with a few Brissy gigs when you can.
Furter, if the distance is too far to drive, fly down fro a run and travel in style with another member!

I have met some lifelong friends thru this club, and the membership cost is worth that alone!!!

Might friend in Townsville is always catching up with people in their Ford club. I'll ask him about the details and get back to you.

Hi Ho...Are there any XR6 clubs in the Gladstone region at the moment. Havn't heard of any, but there seems to be alot of XR6's GT's and XR8's in the area. If there isn't would anyone be interested in kicking something off around for the area, If there is anyone else in the area let me know what u think.
And...do you guy's in Brizzy and the Coast with the bigger clubs go for runs up this way from time to time.
Cheers

You may spot a few of us clubbies sporting these special souvenirs of our run to Hedden Valley this year to celebrate 45 years of ford in australia. Feel free to come and say hi if you spot us around. The missus aften takes the car to Gladstone for work. Since joining this mad mob we never seem to have a spare minute- love it. :

I'm in the NQ Performance Ford Club. Most members are based around Townsville and Cairns, but we do have members as far down as Mackay. We have over 70 members in the club. The club has most models of Fords in it including most variants of XRs and GTs.
