Wow, I haven't done that drive for years.. it's good. Factor in another 1.25hrs or so for us southerners to get there though

To give you an idea...

[unclepaulie]

cheers matt i tried that but failed hardcore

 

[leebutts]

We've done a similar one before and it's good driving up there, especially with Nebo added on - anyone want to fly me over and loan me a car?

 

[Donkay]

When?

 

[unclepaulie]

yeah sure Lee....

dont know yet don, just getting numbers

 

[naughtika]

Paulie, set a date that suits everyone, then I'll change the title with the date on it..

im not sure at this stage, my schedule's pretty crap for the next 2 months..

 

[Guest]

i'm keen, i might bail as we go past ipswich though... seems like a long drive

 

[buduki]

I was up there today at Nebo good drive I was trying to think of mates to go up with I didnt even think of here. I'm always up for a cruise

 

[Nitephyre]

Just remember Nebo is always crawling with the PoPo, so any stupid shit and you'll be raeped and on your own

 

[pu-11-me]

I got asked to come by name haha

Keen as pending dates!

 

[TTFreak]

Count me in if it's within the next month. My wife pops our first one out after this and I don't see many cruise days on my agenda for a while after this. Maybe I should bring her with me if she goes past her due date...Nebo has some fantastic labour-inducing bends... ;-)

 

[king_panther]

Just seeing your ultra rare Super VR4 Red Galant would put any woman into labour lol!!!

 

[Riley]

if ive got the car running and radiator fixed ill come.....

 

[frozen]

Depending on the date ill see how im gong for money

 

[naughtika]

if ive got the car running and radiator fixed ill come.....

dude, what happened to your radiator?

 

[Donkay]

Has cracked the top like everyone?

 

[miss-Leggy]

Wow sounds like a good cruise, you can count us in and im sure the rest of us from the sunny coast will be here too! give us a heads up on dates and times and ill organise a few of us from up here cant wait!

 

[Riley]

bingo.....ive actually managed to patch it up pretty well but am not really going to drive the car until its fixed

 

[naughtika]

just get the aftermarket radiator, I think the name is Golphier?!
