Great day out. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks to John for the great organisation of the day.

Some really nice cars came out today which was great to see.

Jason, sorry for the stone shower that you copped off my car, there was nothing i could really do to avoid those bumps in the road until it was too late.

I had a good day. It was good to meet some new faces.

I got the feeling my X-Series car was un-welcomed though, first I got rear ended leaving the Bunnings carpark, then I got showered in dust leaving Lorne!!

:lookedat:


I've been meaning to get to the GOR cruise for a few years now, but maybe next time I'll bring the DC :

I had previously been saying how much I love black sprints... you were miles away from me though!
Haha, good to hear it wasnt as close as I thought, I must have been a bit too drunk to be driving!

This poor sprint had a wheels swap at 6am this morning (with no time for autosol to make the wheels look any good), and on our way there some road works decided to shower the car in stones and dust, so combined with a couple of greasy hand prints from the wheel swap, and quite a bit of dust, this particular black Sprint was looking rather sad and not very loveable :(

EDIT: I was not drunk, only kidding around...

Nice to meet you too mate. Your Ghia looks really sweet, we'll have to catch up again at another meet ;)

Great day! My only regret is not applying any sunscreen : Man I'm going to be sore in the next couple of days. Sorry to D4v3 for the slowing down then booting it trick on the way back. :hihi: I thought you would've been able to keep up, Johnny Z could _2:

I'm tired as! I went to G3 last night and got home about 1pm but I was way too pumped from the concert to sleep. Glad I'm not working tomorrow.

Was perfectly welcome in my book.

Had a great day, was well organised, and a long non-stop drive home, got home at 8pm after stopping to get dinner, great day, glad I finally made the GOR.

Good day, like most I copped a beating from the sun.

It was a good turnout and a great drive. Alot of fun was had. It is a shame it was wrecked by someone outside of the club but that can be forgotten.

I regret not having the DC there. But hey, the company was great.

I took a few good pix. If any hasn't been posted, then I will upload some.

Thanks to the organisers, attendees and my driver.

I'm a bit sunburnt as well. It'll be fun at work tomorrow.

I covered about 450kms and used about 2/3 of a tank.

I covered about 410kms, and used about 61L of V-power... probably more than that.

Geelong is 2cpl more expensive than Warrnambool for fuel --- colac is 7!!!
