FTO AUSTRALIA

Just scanning for ideas for a get-together for April. Unfortunately April is a very busy month, so wont really have time to plan much, but I thought maybe just a meet up for lunch type affair would be good, whether it be a BBQ in the parklands (or somewhere ppl can see our cars) or at a pub somewhere. Doesnt necessarily need to be a cruise.

Unfortunately with Easter, and a stack of weddings/bucks nights/work commitments, the only free days it looks like I will have are Sunday 15th or Sunday 22nd.

I would love to catch up with you all again, so let me know your thoughts.

Steve.

Woo Sounds good, i dont have much planed and i shoudnt Be working on any sunday.. So yea... count me in... to whatever it is that we do..

yeah all is good for steve and me too. whatever is best for anyone is fine we dont really have much going on in april so theres not much to worry about with us.

Yep same with me any times good, count me in

Ditto...

OK, so no-one has any preferences... ???

Well, I think maybe just meet somewhere for a get together will be all I have time to organise this month. Worth it just to catch up though. Ill post details when I work something out.

April 22nd is hillclimb at Collingrove!!!


Good to have a few FTO's out there!!




Jaime

sorry guys but i wont be able to join.. i have major assignments due at the end of this month but i am going to have to spare a few days for DRIFT BATTLE at Malalla (14/15th april) and Extreme Power Fest at adelaide international raceway (29th april). If anyone wants to come along i'm sure we can find ample parking together and put on a show for anyone walking by. i dont think ive ever come a cross a sweeter looking ride than an FTO... we'll be sure to draw some attention, and have a whole bunch of entertainment.. not a bad drive either.

cheers, tushar

Looks like this weekend will be out for me as well. Damn busy time of the year. So maybe the 22nd, but I'll see how we go.

this topic has been quiet for quite a while does this mean there wont be a meet this month?
from what i can see so far, about 5 or 6 cars will be able to make it? (if there is a cruise..)
wel let us know before the 22nd.

Yeah, I have been really busy lately. Anyway, Sunday 22nd is still the plan. Weather looks ok at this stage, so I'm planning on a BBQ. Probably not much of a cruise though, but be worth just getting together anyway.

if i got my car back from the workshop i'll be the there on the 22nd

OK, so here's the plan ppl.

Meet at the usual place >>Here<< at 10am on Sunday the 22nd April.

Bring BBQ food (for yourself and/or passengers) and drinks.

We'll go for a bit of a city type drive, then stop for lunch, and play it by ear from there. Nothing too formal, just an excuse to get together.

Looking forward to seeing you all again.

My number if you need to talk to me is 0412 300 256. (but dont call me during business hours lol)

Hey sorry i wont be able to make it on sunday something... has come up... im sure it will be a fun day... and im sorry for late notice.

No probs Stew.

For those who are coming, weather looks good for tomorrow. Dont forget to bring food and drinks.

is it just going to be a casual cruise around town or are we going to have to fuel up? just wanting to know so we know what to be ready for.

Hey guys not gonna be able to make it either

I got a few things that i have to do tomorrow and theres just not enough hours in a day. Still can't get my damn aerial working so gonna get yet another person to look at it.....really annoying stuff.

I hope yous have a great day and i'm make sure i can make it to the next one.....hopefully have my aerial finally working to.

Sorry for the late notice as well.

Love that first photo of our cars Steve

Good to see you got the alcohol prohibited sign and the... er... non alcoholic beer in the lunch photo.

Not a huge number of pics from me either, but my designated cameraman got some good ones

Check the grin... 333 Only half evil...


At Glenelg:



Parked for Lunch:


Phantom:


Port Rd:


Hindley St. Sunroofs make for interesting reflections...


Windy Point Lookout:


Wouldn't be an FTO cruise without some twisty roads.


Pitty it's got some dash reflection in it, but I snapped this ripper in the tunnel


Might make for some good video on the next cruise...

The Windy Point video looks really slow, I'll tweak it a bit and post soon.

Cheers again to the people who made the effort to come and good to see some more new faces.

Look forward to seeing you all soon.
