SoulSearcher Posted January 7, 2010 Report Posted January 7, 2010 a couple of weeks ago, someone was asking about "RIP Drift Pig" stickers, this is the annual cruise (taken from the NS.com forum): ANNUAL BEN SIMPSON MEMORIAL CRUISE On the 1st Feb 2010 it will be 5yrs since we lost our much loved Ben (dr1ft_pig13). To celebrate his life and membership of this forum we hold an annual memorial cruise, we usually raise money for an associated charity. This year have planned it differently, we will NOT be collecting/asking for donations (the cruise maps will be provided free). If you have lost a someone recently (no matter how they died) and wish to cruise in their honour please buy a wide ribbon in their favourite colour, write their name on it & attach it to your windscreen wiper. As this event is always held very close to the anniversary of Ben leaving us it is a difficult time & we ask you to respect our wishes in relation to this cruise/event. •It will be a relatively short (approx 1.5hrs) leisurely paced cruise, it will pass across the hills face but there will be no intense windy/slider type roads. •There will be only one cruise group, slowest & fastest all in the same group. •If your intention was to come & slide....stay home. •It your car is currently defected & by reasons of the defect unable to be driven, don't bring it. •As we will not be collecting any $$ it will not be classified as a "charity cruise", therefore I can not write letters for permits ALL types of cars and drivers are most welcome. The cruise will be concluding at a GO KART track where Softy will be accepting challengers in the HT.net Grand Prix. This is where you can display your driving "skills" - for those who want to go karting it will cost a max of $25 for 15 laps (10mins). Come and join us remember those who have left this world long before their time. DATE: SAT 30TH JANUARY 2010 TIME: 6PM MEET for a 7PM CRUISE START WHERE: CNR GOLDEN GROVE ROAD & JACK HIGH LANE RIDGEHAVEN (in the currently closed waterworld car park) "the dr1ft_pig13 OLDS"

SoulSearcher Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Posted January 8, 2010 A quick update, they're on FACEBOOK :lolcry: Here's the latest update: Just a reminder that Ben's cruise this year, is a "memorial" cruise for everyone....if you have lost someone & you wish to cruise in their honour, buy a ribbon in their favourite colour & tie it to your windscreen wiper (you can even write their name on it).... Black was Ben's favourite colour so we will be flying that....we have some friends who lost their daughter just after Ben & her favourite colour was pink, so we will be flying that as well. Finally, if you intend going go kart racing at the end of the cruise & have your own full faced helmet...bring it with you.
