Congratulations and hope you enjoy your day. We will perhaps see you there at the 12 hour Race at Bathurst which this coincides with.

Thank you to all the Members and their Families and Friends who participated in this Annual Charity Cruise and for donating so generously at a time when things are a little tough in Australia. Shows true Aussie Spirit!

Gaela
What happened to it being drawn on the 15th? Its only the 11th here in NSW...

Went on the cruise last Sunday here in SA, dropped off my toys but for family reasons couldn't stay long. However met a couple of guys with GT's that told me of meets at the Alberton Hotel at Port Adelaide. Like to know more re dates etc. I was in the dark blue EF XR8 wth EL front.

Can I make this clear - the Bathurst Experience was drawn from people who attended the Toy Cruise nationally. Everyone who put their name down to attend had their names put in the hat and it was drawn on Monday after the Event.

The 3rd in the draw won as they were the first to have actually participated - if we drew the result in a month it would have been the same as the Toy Cruise is over for this year.

So if you want to beat em, ya gotta join em, and being manual makes the time even more credible.

This seemed to work out for you ok so next year I'll be driving a Mexican low rider with bags and hydraulics and I'll bounce my way to Geelong if it improves my chances of winning the Bathurst track day prize , congrats Stagg well done and I hope it's a blast .

Got home nice and safe a little while ago, and for those folk who were driving behind me, yep, my rear shock mounts were completely ********* lol

Just wish I had a passenger so I could have got some shots while on the move. There would have been quite a few good ones going down Kariong hill taking up both lanes :-P
