ddarby, I'll cruise over with you!
I need to confirm dates but you can put me down as a possible for the moment. Will be nice to be the only forte at standard height...........I do have a spare set of 4WD tyres that might fit.
I'll let you know closer to the date, but am very interested.

A Brief Update from my end. I've spoken to a hotel about accomodation. I have some prices which I will provide shortly. The Run Sheet I'm doing now for the NSW traveller's. Once It's done, it will be available for download.

Its not actually a cruise. There may be a cruise after it but it will be an informal deal. The day itself is "stationary" at the park. Its very much a social day for the family rather than just driving around and looking at the sights. Of course, the more footage the better... I'll be bringing my DV camera for sure.

J/k. I've got some other footage of crusies and Au's, so If I edited it, I'll add in some of that.

I think we are going for quality over quantity in this case. We could have organised 4 or 5 smaller AU cruises between now and April but thats pretty well been done to death. This is something new and a lot more upmarket. A full show and shine with prizes, bbq in a prebooked area, race cars on display, interstate cars, few other things I'm working on.... not really something that will produce a lot of cruise footage I'm afraid but I'm betting it is certainly going to get a lot of attention.

If you dont like AU's no ones forcing you to go..

Its going to be a magical day for AU lovers, its going to be one remembered for quite a while, and will be a very hard task to top it.
im more for "quality not quantity" like Casper said and im sure alot of others will agree that a big event like this 2 times a year will out do lots of little drives around the block which is about all that gets conjured up otherwise.

oh, in that case..

Even though its an aufalcon.com event it would be rude to totally exclude E series owners and cars. Therefore any eseries owner wanting to be involved in the "exhibition of extream ziptie oragami" feel free to come along. :
