heheheh com one the jackets rock... slayar could get an all leather one and we could him the fonz - but seriously i think jackets would be great - but like someone else said optional! although the shirts and jumpers should be for all As for the members of this exclusive club, maybe we shouldnt be to strict on that, there are so many people i know who love VL's/VK's etc but cant really afford to own one or dont really have an option too, it would be a bit unfair to exclude those people from these things, but of course... if they drive a ford there will be a compulsory 200 meter distance from there car to any of the real cars - we cant have our calais catchin anything from them hehehehe. Besides that we could turn others into VL buffs and our numbers could rise - the less ricers and ford owners the better. one thing i thought of for a list of people in the group would be if we could just put a small web page, names and brief description of them, their car, photos could be an option - maybe the owner of the CT forum could help us out in that way? but that would take some organisation which might be taking it a bit far? what do you guys think? even if we started off with 5-10 people we are bound to grow - surely when people see 10 smick VL's parked together they will ask questions Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I know! the Glads have thier hands in sooo many Pies, it is unreal! they are more Business men then Bikies... *looks behind me* they are very good people... *Peers out the Window* we need to Respect our road warrior Cuzzins more,..

I can take you, I drive out that way all the time, show some Cleavage and i wont make you listen to my Metallica Mixx you can put any tunes you like on and Yea thats just the Idea for the Guys Jacket... Girls would wear somthing else, and it is just somthing to put in the mix... we would have Shirts and Jumpers.. and girl slinglets... The Girl Slinglets should be White, so any beer they cant drink then tip on the rack Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

we had 18 of them together the other day. If we just stick to the basics and not get too carried away we could be the Newcastle outlet of www.calaisturbo.com.au (http://www.calaisturbo.com.au) car club, its already set up, works well and more people are becoming aware of us. There is already a newy laps forum for ricys and other car buffs, but if its a VL club i think a pre-requsite should be that you own a VL. Those people who attended the calais estate cruz the other week would probably say that apart from the rain it was a faultless day. A small group of us tried to start off a newy vl club but nothing really went ahead cos we all kept comin back here. It is even being tried in Sydney, but really this site works great and we can all utilise it, some for free even. By all means I will support anybody who wants to go out on a limb to make this happen, but there is a lot of work involved in running a club and keeping it afloat. If there are too many organisations it will only create rivalry in my opinion, i say support this site which is already established and prove to every other user that Newy is the strongest branch of calaisturbo. You dont need a calais or a turbo to cruz on this site, just a VL

i love the idea of the newcastle outlet of the CT club but still think others - especialy other commy drivers - should be allowed in, how about a pre-requsite of being an active member of the CT forums?

Yes... it Brings up an interesting Point... this is a Calais Turbo site... so wouldnt a VK Calais have more of a Right to be there then a VL Bel N/a... I dont feel that we are looking at a Box inorder to peg a group, I think we would be more interested in the Character of the person then the car they Drive... or I can say for sure, anything we orginise official or not will end b4 it starts...

Ouch, burn, just saying cause not all people with VL's are as nice as the people here... and some of our VK/VN Brothers and sisters respect the code... I would Prefer to Cruze with old school VK Calais backing me up, then to Cruze with some ricer using the VL as mobile sperm bank for his mates... I think it is tops, we are not even a Club and allready fighting on details.. Kinda Stresses the Point why we should keep it casual Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

not really, its people bringing up unecessary **** that causes fighting... my points are relevant, this is a VL website for VL owners to come, if u wanna invite other people in go right ahead but it kind of defeats the purpose doesnt it? i mean i enjoy cruises a lot more with VL's rather then every other commodore, we arent here to support other makes or models, we are here for the one and only VL, im guessing if your brother didnt have a VK u wouldnt be stressing this as much? not just that a mobile sperm bank? wots that all about? the special feeling when u r driving with another 20 VL's, thats something u cant describe, sorry but i totally disagree with u as im sure u have figured out and il stress this once again... STREET COMMODORES its about feeling special that we all have 1 thing in common

Quote: Originally Posted by rainstar this is a VL website for VL owners to come, if u wanna invite other people in go right ahead but it kind of defeats the purpose doesnt it? No it doesnt, Having people of good Character matters more then having all VL's... what if all they Could afford was a VK Calais 5ltr V8... Very little Seperates them from a VL Calais V8... you would not have them come just cause the Lights are differnt? I have seen some Dam nasty Body kits on Some VLs. that Make a VK look more like a VL then some VL's do... Quote: Originally Posted by rainstar i mean i enjoy cruises a lot more with VL's rather then every other commodore, we arent here to support other makes or models, we are here for the one and only VL, Not All VL Drivers Can keep their loves on the road all the time... why should they Miss out on following the action just cause they Drive A differnt Car some of the time... as long as they show respect when it is photo time... I dont see what your problem with it is!.. We Joke about no Fords and all that.. but there was a Ford on the Calais estate Cruze.. and I feel it was better for it... It showed how open Minded we can be... and The Driver seemed a Decent guy, and moved his car out of the way for photo time... Quote: Originally Posted by rainstar im guessing if your brother didnt have a VK u wouldnt be stressing this as much? You would be Guessing wrong... I will allways fight for the under-dog Quote: Originally Posted by rainstar not just that a mobile sperm bank? wots that all about? Just Expressing that a good car, does not allways make good people... Quote: Originally Posted by rainstar the special feeling when u r driving with another 20 VL's, thats something u cant describe, sorry but i totally disagree with u as im sure u have figured out and il stress this once again... STREET COMMODORES its about feeling special that we all have 1 thing in common your point of View is different to mine. and I respect that, I dont see the Special Feeling as simply Driving with 20 other VL's, I see it as 20 people Loveing and Respecting the 20 VL's they see... even if they cant own one Just yet, or the one they own is being sprayed or fixxed or somthing, and they can only drive at the back...
