Ladies and Gentlemen, Cruise has been written, tested and its bloody good. Dates been set, and all we need now, is for you guys to come along and have a great day. Tested the cruise out today with VLCAL-6 and its a real nice drive, the path is easy to follow, and were going to be able to have a real nice drive and get some top quality pictures. All in all, the cruise is going to take a few hours, with a few stop offs. Plently of BP's along the way, couple of Macca's, Kfcs, Shops, Parks etc, and today it was a whole lot of fun. There will be two meeting spots, Kmart on Anzac Highway, And Munno Para Shops. This is so we dont have to be back tracking for those that live up North etc. Maps will be given out on the day, at the second stop, maps to get there (second stop) will be given out at the first stop. Hopefully it will be a pretty good meet, and lots of you boys will rock up, if you dont have a VLCT, VLC, or even a VL, who cares, your more than welcome. We want to see a huge percentage of you SA boys come along, i dont care about excuses, if you dont have a car, we will get you a lift. For the boys meeting at Kmart, we will be meeting up at 11am, and leave around 11.30am. We will then meet the Munno Para guys at roughly 12-12.15am, and leave there around 12.30am. The cruise will last most of the day, so I wouldnt be making too many plans . Other people and cars are welcome, aslong as there's no idiots, idiots will be gladly removed. Few surprises are planned for the day, and those that dont have calaisturbo.com.au stickers, i will be providing them for the day, because I know were all lazy and cant be bothered ordering them from interstate . If you want to come along, let me know, so we have a rough guide to whos coming, and numbers to allocate for. Cheers Guys, Matt (Post in here if your coming, try not to whore too much ) Those Confirmed So Far: Blink (Will bring a couple of boys and girls) VLCAL-6 Spirit77 VltKen (Plus Two) Lukey VL (Plus a Few) Sprigzy Platinum Dannc (Plus Two) HDT 50L NightmareZVL backoffman vl gts MONSTER MR VLT VL_TRBO (Plus A Couple) NTMID 8 FLYIN6 Mang01 Prowler Okey Alsynon Jeffo_VLT PSI VL bt-1t XRTHIS (Guessing Ben will be there) vltnitron VL-Calais VLCalais6939 RZREKTD steech PIMPN6 Slamd6 BoyWonder 87vl30e SirCalais efi_vk CalaisTurbo.com.au does not condone any reckless driving, if you are caught doing such at this event your number plates will be recorded and we will not hesitate to hand them into the relevant authorities. If you wish to show how tough you and your car is, take it to a legal track. There are no excuse’s for stupidity. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You heard the man!!!! Nah cruise is top notch fellas and something different. Hope everyone makes it this time as you have all had enough notice By the way matt top pics and top nav skills today son! I would have to say the highlight of the day was driving on the wrong side of the road on Gawlers main street See what stupid car parking forces you to do LOL. Only saw 3 cop's all day, only got lost once (and it wont happen again as it is no longer in the cruise route) and i only use just over a quater of a tank for the day. By the way thanks Spirit for getting back to us soooo quickly!!! Hell im still waiting!!! Hope you like the message we left! Trip is around 160km's if memory serves me correct. If we all fill up before the cruise there should be no need for petrol stops, even you guys with fuel hungry turbo's and v8's should be fine. The roads are good to very good all round with only tununda being a bit rough but nothing that should worry even the lowest kit wearing beast. Hell i need a wheel alignment something bad and i could sit on 150+kph no dramas. Its and easy run to follow and no one should get lost and end up all over the place as like other cruises in the past. There is long stretch's and tight n' twisty bits, a little something for everyone. It will eat up most of the day, around 6 hours including stops. So clear your calander, cancel your plans... slap yourself for even thinking of making plans on that day!!! We want all the VL's there, everyone off here! Lets make it a good one and a big one!!!

This is my post to add info and edit any changes Basics . ***Cruise first meeting - Kmart 11am, and leave around 11.30am.*** ***Cruise second meeting - Munno Para roughly 12-12.15am, and leave around 12.30am.*** Will have fuel , food and photo stops during cruise but best to fill up b4 hand. Buddy system applies here. Someone gets left behind we wait till they catch up. If we are unaware that someone is left behind , call our mobiles or flash ur lights/beep your horns to get our attention. Due to recent Behavior on a CT cruise in melbourne There will be 0 tolerance of all dangerous hoonish driving. Anyone doing such behavior will be asked to leave the cruise. Anyone doing such behavior and causing an accident in the process will be reported to the police. Anyone drink driving on the cruise better park there car and call a tow truck to take u home cause if u dont u will be reported to the police. On the first post it shows who is attending. If u dont see ur name there then post that u are comming and Blink will edit it and add you to that list. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
