There's heaps of photos of the cars, maybe a few of the bbq. Yeah the weather turned out to be a 'bit' windy but it really was quite good. The cruise side of things was pretty good too, except for maybe that mazda pace car! So, so slow.. Too tired to remember what else I was gonna say..

Haha what a rediculously funny day. The bee incident at long bay, the cop and the "I prefer VLs" comment, the suprise 180 trying to come out of the memorial car park, watching gasguz's VS in the rear view pointing at both kerbs. Man there were heaps of cops down quay street though, the valentine one picked up three simultaneously at one stage. Reckon the idea of booking a spot at long bay for a sunny saturday, parking up all the cars, doing the BBQ and abusing everyone else (the lowered on mags forrester club or the gauges bigger than their engine starlet club) would be sweet.

yeah we want pics! Yeah it's worked a bit, the noisy bit are the tri Y headers into extended secondarys that collect into a 3" flowmaster. Really really needs a tune by a pro though. Will start a long bay thread and kick around a few dates and generate some interest.

Lol we are all pushing for pics but we were to useless to take some for ourselves.. Today would've been great for a cruise, just been out from about an hour of riding and it was perfect out there. You can always tell 'cause there's a group of bikers at every corner Oh, but I saw a few cops.. that's not good for cruising. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

First of all: To all those that bitched and moaned about the time it took me to get the photos up... Shut Up! You all know (except Matt) that my computer was/is farked - remember when i told you all at Nicks (I was on the phone to my brother... who was fixing it) Anyways... I'm still having issues with it - I will get them up in the next few days... Having said that - it looks like Kelv has thrown some up to shut ya'll up in the mean time anyways Oh i went to the Targa NZ prologue in Manukau today - i got some photos and sh!t from there that i might throw up also - a VK was doing some good drifting on his last run through and i think i have it on video... I haven't watched it yet, but hopefully i managed to film it. Was a good day everyone... Except for that bloody killer bee that was chasing me... Not amused! Thanks to Matt for starting the original thread which in turn gave us some motivation to sort the whole bloody thing out... and a big thanks to Nick for letting us have a few drinks and a BBQ at his after. Catch ya, J Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
