Hey all, Thought i would bring this to everyone's attention in case you were not aware! Extract from the website - http://www.commodorecarclub.co.nz/ Quote: On Sunday 24th September 2006, The Commodore Car Club of NZ Inc is holding a memorial Cruise as a tribute to their Patron, the Late Peter Brock. The cruise is hoped to be the biggest ever run in New Zealand and everyone is welcome to participate. We are meeting at 10am at Alexandra Park's Manukau Road entrance and departing at 12.00pm and cruising through Auckland city including Queen Street before heading out to end at Pukekohe Park Raceway's outer area. The cars will be displayed at Pukekohe and food etc will be on site along with a few other surprises you wont want to miss. We would like to invite those with Brock cars and Brock replica's to take part in a photo shoot at the end of the cruise. Bring the family and celebrate the life of this great man. Head to http://www.commodorecarclub.co.nz/ for more info and tell all of your mates - lets give the Brock the biggest and best Memorial Cruise we can. I will try and post up more details as i get them. Cheers, Jay

Today was Epic, What a turn out - over 800 cars - mostly commodores and other holdens! Big thanx to HSVHEL for pulling in behind me when my car overheated! Turns out the 8 doesnt like sitting in car parks and crawling along bumper to bumper for long periods of time in the heat of the day! Anyway, thanx to everyone who showed up and made today what it was! Oh and HSVHEL, I owe ya 1 x 750ml Pump water... haha Cheers, Jay
