MRMOPARMAN Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 id be up for a cruise anywhere.. heathcote would be good, its 10 mins from my oldies place (at lake eppolock) would youse cater for the slower drivers at all? my rolla don't like sitting on 100, it revs its tits off! Quote
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 consider my interest officially shown! i disappeared for a while but i am back! so whats on the agenda next? Good to see you back RollaGurl! I agree with Muller, our last events havent been to dye for, but have still been a worthy of the drive. GZE82 tried in vane to organise an event recently with Twincam.org as well, we were the only two RollaClub members that made it and even then there were only four cars that went for the cruise! Other states seem to have there events sorted... whats wrong with VIC? I for one are always interested in a gathering, even if it is just a run to the drags, but something with around 15 people for lunch etc would be a hoot! Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 maybe a cruise to a gokart track? Quote
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Smart thinking MRMOPARMAN, its fun, relatively cheap and we can all do some bench racing in between... Any other ideas??? Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 how about a cruise to the drive ins when something good is on? i would be more than willing to organise a gokart + cruise meet later in the year, I'm a tad busy atm unfortunately. organised a few for ozdat a while back and the reception was really good. never organised a cruise though and i dunno many good melbourne roads.

MRMOPARMAN Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 or maybe even a cruise to a local track when one of the members here is racing.. to cheer them on? Quote
coln72 Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 (edited) Tiger and Kangaroosa did that last time I competed in Melb. Need to find an event that allows passengers :( or maybe even a cruise to a local track when one of the members here is racing.. to cheer them on? Edited August 19, 2006 by coln72 Quote
BBQ_Rolla Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 I missed the lasted cruise, but proably better. About 48 hours after I got my motor going I broke my 2nd conrod at 7500+rpm. If car got new motor by next event then I should be there. Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 Tiger and Kangaroosa did that last time I competed in Melb. Need to find an event that allows passengers :( kewl.. where abouts in melb did ya compete, and what sort of event? theres a motorkhana at the BP servo at somerton i wouldnt mind competing in.. don't know who organises it and how often though Quote
coln72 Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 (edited) Thats where I met up with Tiger and Kangaroosa :( There is footage of that day on this forum somewhere. To find out where motorkhanas are going to occur check out this link. Can download sup regs as well. http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/motorkhana/ Being ex Bendigo did you ever meet up with Brian Shannahan (grey ke25)???? Edited August 20, 2006 by coln72 Quote
kangaroosa Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 Thats where I met up with Tiger and Kangaroosa :( There is footage of that day on this forum somewhere. Thanks for reminding me of that footage. I was supposed to put the full day of footage onto a DVD for you. I'll get onto it soon for you. Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 spanner? hell yeah i race with him all the time. real nice bloke and a GREAT driver! always helping out with the motorkhanas out at bagshot. actually i think brians organising the huntly VMC round. your nice n close, ya should come over and have a go if you havent decided yet! ill be there aswell as numerous other rollas :( Quote
coln72 Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 Last year I would of, but due to family commitments (11month old son and another due in a fortnight) things have got kinda busy. I've unofficially semi retired but hope to be thrashing the shit out of the 20 next year as i think the Australian Motorkhana Champ. is back in Melbourne next year :( Kangaroosa - shit I forgot about that too. Quote
coln72 Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 Just a silly thought - how many of us actually have competition licences? Maybe we should think about signing up with a club (approx $80/year) and getting a cams licence ($45 for the basic licence) and then we can all have a thrash :( Heel there could be an official Vic Rollaclub point score. I stand by to be shot down if this is a stupid idea. Quote
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted August 21, 2006 Report Posted August 21, 2006 :) Haha... Its not a stupid idea at all, it would possibly get more Vic mimbers involved which would be a good thing. I am personally interested anyway, even if I do have a wrong wheel drive rolla! Any othr takers? Quote
