The year has been shortened this year to a one day event, the route will take us around the picturesque and challenging roads of the Bass shire. Stage one start at a meeting point in Cranbourne with a lunch stop at Kilcunda pub, the afternoon stage will conclude at the Tooradin airport bar and restaurant around 4.00pm Date Sunday 21st October, 8.30am Meeting point : Bunnings Car park Cranbourne Cnr Sth Gippsland Hwy and Thompsons Rd · Great challenging roads with beautiful scenery · All sealed roads (No dirt) · Guaranteed lots of fun · Bring a navigator and a sense of humour Guaranteed is some amazing roads, a barrel of laughs, some interesting questions and a great day with some very social people. Entry is $5 (trophies are awarded) and if you are interested or want to know more, please contact me Cheers,

I'm hoping to attend and I'm 99.99999% sure i will be alone, can this sort of thing be done without a navigator and a belly full of sugar? : Or will I need a rent-a-navagator?

Hey AUXRVIII,
(BTW your post count just clicked over 888...... oooooh is it an omen for tomorrow..?) You can by all means come by yourself- it just means you'll have to answer the questions/read directions and drive - not the first time and certainly won't be the last someone has done one of these on their own..... you could always rent-a-guessor / grab a mate - someone reading this may want to ride shotgun with you......

It's not easy getting people willing to leave here at 4am, so I'll see what happens.
888 maybe a good omen, I'd like the number 17 to be there too and in front. |

Yep- club members took out 2nd and 3rd, and thanks to AUXRVIII, the Z32 that had broken down on the side of the road was able to head home gingerly... :not worthy: And the view from the Kilcunda Pub was sensational..... We plan on taking it back to a weekend event next year. Here's a couple of pics... The boaks and the "stacks" who came 2nd and 3rd respectively.... With original rego "KGB..." it will always be known as Boris.... Gotta love the rego... Last.... but not least. it started as a 240K, then had a Toyota Supra/Soarer (can't remember which) engine chucked in it, supercharged it, and it's all fed... by the turbo. The sounds reminded me of the Donut king jet Van we have seen at sandown, but bugger me when he put his foot down........

Looks like a great day. Pity I missed it . Would have been a nice day in an open top car. By the way - I heard there was a "fresh face " on the run. Do you have any photo's.
