Would have been extremely wise to have it on this cruise... Bout 30 seconds into it, I decided the seat belt wasn't good enough & donned the harness!

Bennoz you forgot to mention the RVR when listing the cars that were on the cruise..

You mentioned the Clio and not the RVR...
Haha jokes.. no body seems to know what my car is! (I like it that way!)
It was an awesome day hey. Great turn out! Didn't know if the RVR would keep up with the evos but it did no worries.. I have pics of my speedo hitting 160+
PS: Nice sneaky shot of 'that chick'.. everyone seems to be enjoying the pic!
PPS: That'd be
MY woman..

thanks goes to the FTO's for coming along and mixing it with the evo's- each car went hard and kept up very well! Two of them waited paitently behind me at the base of maquarie pass as we gave the buses a chance to get up- we got a good clean run about half way up as a result. Didnt take long for me to loose you guys though hehe
Dont forget to check out the pics on evolutionoz and come say hi- AJ, i'm sure you'l get on the forums eventualy hehe... Pics start on about page 8

Cheers,
Mitch

Ahh yes! I probably forgot because I didnt get any pics or the RVR! I love it, turbo madness in a mini Nimbus
And the shot of your misses... well I was actually just trying to get the view... I didnt have the heart to tell her to move

Haha ... no worries Bennoz. It looked like a view shot to me with a few people in the way .. you should've told her to move!
Loved your FTO btw. Really nice example. Make sure you let Evolutionoz know when you guys are cruising again. Cheers

Some awesome pics there... almost makes me wish I still lived in Sydney... but then again... nah, Adelaide hills rock
I like the "over roof" pics Ben, how exactly did you do them while you were driving ?

Finally got on there now as AJ. (must remember the .)
Thanks for a wicked cruise Mitch. Looking forward to the next one.
Sublime. I saw 2 very, very close crashes, so probably best that you didn't risk it. Like I said, I'd rather not come on a cruise and wish I had, than come on a cruise and wish I hadn't

Yeah, I nearly got t-boned by a commodore while making a u-turn. One second it was clear, then it wasn't. Usually it wouldn't have been a problem, but the commodore was really flying.
There was a nice rubber cloud, but nobody got hit so it's all good.
