GoRolla Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 Hey mate, I wasn't able to enter due to tue car not being old enough... But the missus and I are still going I'n our rolla, where were you going to meet?

You won't be able to get on the oval at West Beach. Those boys on the gate even get angry if they see a non-entered car drive past... start waving their arms at you to drive away quickly and get out the way. Not that I mind that because they have 1750 cars to deal with and in my opinion the running of this event is super professional. Been going in it for about 15 years now and love it. Nothing stopping you parking up somewhere and waiting for it to start though and then driving along in it. You won't get in at Birdwood either though. You will be turned away at the gate without your window permit.
RA28GT Posted September 24, 2011 Report Posted September 24, 2011 I figured I had no chance of getting in. I was always going to join in the cruise but I figured it would be nice the has the rollaclub guys together for it, although it sounds far too difficult to get everyone together.
abbott Posted September 24, 2011 Report Posted September 24, 2011 goodluck today lads I'll probably head up. please take photos for us all.
rke_011 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Posted September 26, 2011 (edited) saw this ke10/11, if your on here and its yours..... nice :) Edited September 26, 2011 by rke_011
rke_011 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Posted September 26, 2011 was nice, were there any other ke10/11s? that was the only one i saw.
Chobis Posted September 26, 2011 Report Posted September 26, 2011 I spotted 4 white KE1*s. 3 were parked together near the end of the road at the beginning from West Beach turning onto Tapley's. Can't remember where the other one was. Don't know who any of them were either because I didn't have a chance to see rego plates. Too busy trying not to smack into any cars in front of me and also check out as many cars around me as possible.
Jordan Posted September 27, 2011 Report Posted September 27, 2011 Henry (KE20ME) in his KE10 and I, in my RT40 made the full run. Was a great day albeit rather unsafe as there are no seat belts in my Corona. There were some amazing cars out, though there is a definite lack of Japanese metal at the event. Make sure you get your entries in early next year, to bolster the count. Jordan
rke_011 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Posted September 27, 2011 next year would be the vintage year though wouldnt it? Jordan did you end up 4age'ing the old corona?

Make sure you get your entries in early next year, to bolster the count. Jordan I never saw Henry's car for the whole day however I saw two RT40/43's so I assume one of them was yours Jordan. Most of the cars I've owned have never had seatbelts so I feel pretty safe without them. Except when some moron in a Commo thought he could turn in front of me as I was headed up North East Rd and I had to jump on the brakes a bit and my gf almost slammed the dash board. Perfectly safe :blush:
philbey Posted September 27, 2011 Report Posted September 27, 2011 I had to miss it this year because of a wedding.... Any more pics guys?
