okay. :D

Suggestions of where we should go and what we should do for our next cruise.
Bare in mind, it, quite possibly could be pissing with rain ( Adelaide; :rolleyes: ).

Now, hill runs really annoy me, no one wants to be navigating a fricken boat of a VL around a gay hill, and we also don't want to be driving for hours to some boring hole of a town (not naming any names of course ;)).

I would personally like to go somewhere and do something interesting, like a bit of go-carting, the gepps cross one is pretty easy to get into and has ample parking, but it costs a bit (and I realise we have a lot of pov uni students who've spent all their money on beer in attendance :p).

Other than that, we just go for the usual city run, up to port adelaide (while avoiding the tyre-slashing, beanie wearing, VB sculling bogans), back through the city and then for something different out the otherside of the city past 'the pines' hockey field, because, quite frankly, after 10+ cruises the same route is rapidly starting to sh*t me. ;)


We are going to have to start some "marketing" soon, ryan, our designated "marketing director" will be supplying alcohol and we new need a "dedicated driver" to help with out official "VLSA/Calaisturbo P.R. night". Had great success before (from what I recall anyway) and this time we will take heaps of flyers to hand out to fellow VL owners.

Make your route suggestions, and any VL owners who have not been on a cruise before, no excuses!! You can be driving any VL, doesn't have to be turbo (although the more the better :D).

Discuss.

haha, yes we are all boring and lazy, just a suggestion but what about a Victor/Goolwa run? it's a half decent drive

lets just hope the damn fuel prices go down soon, but i should be in wherever we go!

Yeah $1.10 L tonight :(

i'm just driving my boonger around at the moment cause i just simply can't afford to fill it up fo that much!

yea sounds good gav... i reckon through the city, to port adelaide then down to gepps cross for a bitta go karting (last time i went it was about $20 for 20 laps i think) but if theres enough of us im sure our "marketing director" ryan can organise us some sort of discount as well as supplying us with free beer. then we could cruise down past elizabeth etc for something different being sure not to stop at lights for too long as A... we all like our wheels on our cars and B... petrol prices are high enough without having to fill up 3 times in 2 sets of lights. I nominate ryan for the PR work also... good work ryan!!!

well i suggested skirmish aaaaages ago but that turned out a poor response... maybe people were too cry babyish or just wooses... hehe

im sorry i started the hole "lets go for a drive through the hills to a boring destination and stand around for a coupla hours and wonder what the bloody hell we are all doing here and piss off back to adelaide" idea but you gotta understand one thing.... theres NOWHERE to go in adelaide....

on the other hand... go carting is a good idea

maybe we could join with RCK or another club and have a joint (?) cruise.

i may not be on the next cruise.. my car is a embarrasment and deserves to be driven off a cliff (yes it is THAT bad).

hehe scott, we have had some real boongas on the cruise before, 2 cars without nosecones even, I think you should bring yours - or ride in someone elses. ;)

RCK, err no - nuff said... :D

There is the modified car klub (damm these people who spell it "klub", annoys me greatly. ;))

without nosecones? cool! I won't feel out of place in the ****box :P

yea skirmish would b kewl too... there would b nothing better than kicking cobys arse in a round of painball :D:D:D haha scott u reckon ur cars bad... hav u seen ryans lately??? the more the merrier

without nosecones? cool! I won't feel out of place in the ****box :P

Just put your engine into your other "****box" while u wait. ;)

oh i dunno... nose cone or no nose cone, my car is still crap. it needs some rejuvenating (bloody hell i dunno where the hell that word came from... i am showing some form of intelligence lol)

levi go **** urself :P my cars a beast even after coby ripped the door handle off :|

paintballing yes but there prolly wont be much responce cos of the price.

go carting yer same asbove

i'll do pr and bring a catron for our flyer deliverys but i aint driving lol

i think its cobys turn in the 'brown poo' :p

yea go the brown 4WD VL!!!

you blokes could just combine your cruise with MCK on the 12th of june???
i think they might be making a decent effort to make this a good cruise and everyone is welcome to come out.
and the cruises arnt boganed out extremly and there usually is no cops out there at all.

7pm ETSA PARK, mile end next to bunnings,
12th June - Saturday night

I reakon a victor harbour cruise would be an excellent idea, seen quite a few car clubs do that, do it on a sunday of a long weekend maybe? plenty of hundred zones just gotta watch out for the sunday drivers.

done it a couple times already and lost so many cars on the way it wasnt funny.

i reckon we go out to the drags one night, or something

I'd be keen for that since I've never been to the drags and been wanting to for ages....
What you mean you've lost cars on the way, people don't know how to get to victor?

I reckon a Victor cruise is a good idea. We can get a chance to wind out our cars properly. I thought maybe we start at Bunnings Mileend go up through the freeway via Strathalbyn and return via the coast through Myponga/Aldinga then via South rd or the southern expressway if its open. I reckon it beats cruising round the suburbs where half the cruise gets lost at traffic lights and gets confused reading cruise sheets with 2 dozen directions on them.

It would be nice to keep this a VL cruise seeing it is linked with this forum which make s it unique. If its all VLs we have a common interest and are on the same sort of level.I think that involving other clubs would just turn it into "Just another Commodore cruise" with lots of rivallry and show offs. And after a while back hearing a couple of the founding members of MCK basically say ther club is too good for anything older than VNs, I don't really want to cruise with them. There are plenty of VL drivers out there to get our numbers up with out getting others involved.

The VL cruises we have had in the past may have been a bit boring at the stops but have had reasonable turnouts and have been fairly tame with out pissing off the cops.

Whaddya reckon Gav?

Sounds good to me.... good way to exchange ideas too, everyone open up there car bonnets have a look at engine bays and sound systems in the boot

dunno where u heard that about MCK, its for any cars. and the vice president has a VH SLE so yeh. but i can see what your saying about having a VL only cruise.

Fair enough... I overheard that conversation round Christmas last year so things must have changed since then..

but it costs a bit (and I realise we have a lot of pov uni students who've spent all their money on beer in attendance :p).

so true man, thats another reason why my car is lookin like **** and i've got two bald tyres on the back. although the uni bar is definitely a good investment to pass those maths and physics assignment blues away...

victor cruise sounds good but it's too far and to long for me, i've got work and footy on the weekends but saturday nites are mostly always open with the odd hiccup.

skirmish and go kartin would be ****in awesome but you'd have to give me a few years notice to save up :p

i don't have many idea's cos i haven't been on many cruises myself but a semaphore-glenelg-windy point-freeway run was a good nite out for me. although too many cars and it's borin cos ya just end up waitin around for ages while others catch up. but hey, won't that happen anyways...

just my 2c

RCK = Derelicts
MCK = Derelicts that cant spell Modified

You guys wanna come for a good cruise around adelaide i am part of a club that knows all of the good spost, we dont cruise through the hills we race through the hills, not mature, i know but no one has ever said thay have not had a good time.

If your not up for pushing the limits we have a group that hangs back, consists of our prez who drives an Audi, not really race car.

We dont all have commodores though, come of us do but we tend to have a good mix of Euros, (including a sik worked beemer that will do donuts anywhere) a few commies, some jappers, a few sexy italians and we just set out to have a good time and cause as much havoc on the road as possible.

If you thikn that is not cool and you reckon people like us give car clubs a bad name.

Then.....

Save your **** I dont wanna hear it. Becuase i have probably heard it from someone else already.

Face Facts, adelaide is as boring as watching paint dry so we make our own fun

RCK = Derelicts

so true, but **** they pull off some good minispool aided burnouts! "RAGERS" cracks me up tho.... too l33t for me

Hang on, did i call them derelicts? i'm installing a 'line locker' this weekend..... (dip switch in cabin that disables rear brakes)

Amen to that chasers. Adelaide is a boring hole and it sounds like you and the club you mention like to have fun. Whilst not being the most intelligent way of having fun, we all have our own ways of deciding whats fun or not. Dont get me wrong, racing around the hills is fun, but when you f*** up, you will end up f***ing up someone elses life too. Ive seen what happens when people drift around corners in the hills... one of them ended up in a bull bar of a truck. But everyone is entitled to thier own opinion and the way they decide to have fun.

Anyway, whats happening with this cruise? Anything been decided yet or not? Oh and by the way, the entrance off Sir Donald Brabman drive into Bunnings is now close due to road works. The only entrance is off railway terrace.

Seriously guys how stupid do you think we are.

We dont use raods that are used by trucks we use roads that are, at night, on saturdays or fridays deserted to people like us. Yes crashing is fuct but thats the risk you take.

I have just sold the Vl that i bought a week ago becuase i was offered considerable profit and i have found a VK with Injection on a 202 and a strong motor ready for my blower that will be available in 1 1/2 months. our club is always looking for new members and we have no discrimination. Noo complete rust bucket boongers though and no rotaries except RX8s and Cosmos.

When our next big cruise is on i will let you guys know and you can come out and check the scene.

Currently we are negotiating with the Sporting Car Club Association of South Australia for CAMS affiliation which means access to the BURNOUT PAD, DRAG STRIP and HILLCLIMB.

oh and AVGAS

cant go wrong.

NE way ill let you guys know when we have our next cruise.

Fun **** seriously.

Hang on, did i call them derelicts? i'm installing a 'line locker' this weekend..... (dip switch in cabin that disables rear brakes)

no offence dude but no **** sherlock, if you didnt know what line lockers where then you dont belong on this forum.

Sounds good, but make sure it isn't a too long cruise, my v8 only gets (around, only based this on a quarter tank running out..) 280km per tank :P If it's not an all VL cruise i'll bring the VX (free fuel! gotta love company cars)

yea go the brown 4WD VL!!!

Yeah it is a 4wd now after i took gavin's fat mum , outta the boot. I believe you have her this weekend levi? :P

lets not name names on the public forum eh ;)

this is correct... who needs to fork out big bucks on lowering with air bag suspension when gav's mums in the back seat bouncing up and down like a lebanese tiger :P

Good to see you hard at work gavin :P Oh and why can't i say your mums name on the forum. Everyone knows her name anyway...she gets around like a chicken on heat dude....

so gav, bout time u started organising the cruise aye... or am i gonna continue *****ing ur mum every weekend???

haha, everyones too lazy. Apparently it'll be mid next month after exams etc are over.

how bout a cruise on Saturday the 24th July... i hav put foreward a date, Gav just has to organise it now.

Not that it really matters but saturdays aren't any good for me due to footy comittments, still reakon Sundays are the go.

how about early august.
Tomorrow night we shall have to discuss it... :D

sunday's in the arvo would be good for me. I have basketball and work all day saturday, then sunday only work at 5pm

i wont b there on a sunday... i work every sunday and every second saturday

perfect then :p

what about a sat evening cruise?

Doesnt matter when the cruise is had my car written off on friday night by some stupid bitch but would be there if i still had a car

that sucks - levi was telling me the other night :( what are you going to do now? another VL?

Yeah will hopefully be buying another turbo depending on the bank if they will lend me more money but will probably buy the wreck as well so if cant get a turbo i will at least be able to transfer all the stuff over to another car but still not sure i dont get the money for the write off as it goes to my bank to pay out some of the loan but will keep yous posted
