>>Hey Mick,
>>It was nice to meet some fellow datsun fans, I was the guy riding along in
>>Scott's car.
>>It was strange how that 1 datsun wouldn't join in the photo's, it's a pity
>>it was such a nice looking 1600.
>>I think he said it was too low to get up there, but personally I think
>>Scott's was just as, if not lower and he managed to get involved.
>>
>>Maybe he stole the thing on the way to the cruise and didn't want any
>>photographic evidence :)
>>
>>hehe anyway thanks for the great day guys, can't wait till the next one
and
>>this time I'll bring my dato instead just hitching a ride

>>>Last Sunday 3 (yellow) gold coast 1600's ventured out into the
hinterland
>>>for a pleasant drive around some of the best roads around.
>>>Eric in his immaculate 2 door, Arnie (who is new to the coast from
>>>Canberra - yep he's the one in the yellow 1600 with the Canberra plates -
>>>YAS-26c i think - i was asking about recently) and me driving the yellow
>>>peril, with Shane (of the broken front x - member fame) as naviguesser.
We
>>>were due to meet the Brisbane guys at about 10.30 so we decided to meet
>at
>>>Eric's at 9am and have a bit of a drive before we met them.. Eric led
the
>>>way and showed us his local knowledge.. We had a dream run through
>>Beechmont
>>>and towards Canungra over some truly amazing roads. I'm sure Arnie had a
>>>ball and will be back up there soon for some fun. We saw very few other
>>cars
>>>and only a few bikes so we were able to get stuck into some hard
driving..
>>>You can drive hard without exceeding the speed limit ( by much anyway)
cos
>>>the roads just twist and turn continuously. We then waited at a major
>>>intersection near Mt Tambourine for the brissie guys to get there..Once
>>they
>>>did we managed to have a chat and then decided to go for lunch at this
>park
>>>that only Eric knew about .. There we were, travelling in convoy, - 8 x
>>>1600's, one 1200, one sunny and one Subaru with Eric leading the way and
>>>well and truly stuck behind a smoky old telstar. The rest of us were
>>slowing
>>>right down to get a gap ahead and then planting it and screaming up
>behind,
>>>thru these really good corners.. the only problem was that at one stage
I
>>>slowed every one down to get a big gap (greedy?) and when we came round
>the
>>>next corner there was an intersection and no sign of Eric.. The
>naviguesser
>>>said "turn left" so i did and then I decided we were going the wrong way.
>>>bad move!! I did a u turn and everyone followed me Hahaha what a
>>>shambles!! We kept driving for a while and then from a series of phone
>>calls
>>>worked out that the naviguesser was right and I had stuffed up the whole
>>>cruise..HAHA Eventually we found the right park and had a good lunch and
>>>more chat.. Then we manoeuvred all the 1600's up the gutter and into
>>>position for a photo opportunity - well all except one.. Why didn't he
>>want
>>>to join in anyway?? Oh well it looked great to have all these sweet
>>looking
>>>1600's together and was worth the little effort.. Then we headed back
down
>>>the hills towards Oxenford and the Motorway back to Brissie and the Gold
>>>Coast.. U wouldn't read about it - we got stuck behind the worlds slowest
>>>driver in a Falcon and had a really boring drive back to the Motorway
>where
>>>Scott decide to leave his mate in Eric's car and just drive off up the
>>>Brissie road. So we stopped on the motorway and waited for Scott to u
turn
>>>at the Dreamworld exit and come back for his passenger.. then it was home
>>to
>>>watch the Broncos whip the Roosters in the grand Final..
>>>A great day and photos to come soon.
>>>Thanks to Eric and Scott for organising it.. I reckon we should do a
night
>>>time run up there soon - less traffic??
>>>cheers
