SEE YOU THERE FOR AN EPIC CRUISE--> DONT MISS IT!!!!

P.S
Other forums have also been notified: Hardtuned.net, Skylines Australia (SAU), SupraForum, Skylines AUS & Streetcommodores!

Not sure if anyone noticed but... Apologies for the change, the SYD->NEWY Cruise has been cancelled and have changed it to a Sunday Cruise to Shelly Beach, near The Entrance... it will still be a fun drive, taking Pacific Hwy from Mount White & afew roads from Peats Ridge Rd. --> Shelly that provide that Scenic feel!! We are currently looking into alternative options for a Night Cruise, stay tuned..... Cheers

Sorry for the change, AGAIN!!! Due to feedback about Shelly Beach from Central Coast people (with its massive speed bumps & parking issues), i've changed it to Soldiers Beach @Norah Head- its got 2 Massive Parking areas, in fact 3, but the 3rd down the end of the road is partially blocked off due to Surf Club Reno's!!! So im leaving it at that, we're goin to Soldiers Beach/Norah. LOL!!! Cruise route updated accordingly (please read event info)

P.S
The Entrance is around a 10-15min drive down the coast if you want to go there afterward, nice drive... lol

We did the cruise few months back... its a nice drive.
Beware the carparks are generally pretty full on a weekend... but theres plently of parking from the entrance of the road right down to the carparks...

I'm in!

So is another mate with a rex.

Thanx for the heads up Sarah yeah i drove past you guys when you were there, i was driving my mates orange worked BT1 VS SS (he lives around the corner) looked like you guys had a great turnout aswell! dw, i drive a 99STI- no v8holden for me

Moorsie- no problem champ, see you there

Does anyone know if you can use those P5 parking areas (the ones they used for C4K) or p5 area near there?? are they open all the time, or closed off :s... Silverwater Boat Ramp will be packed, we need to find alternative meet point with MASSIVE parking lol

Not to sure yet but I might show up somewhere along the line.Since i live like 10mins away from soldiers.

Sounds great champ, hope to see you there

Hopefuly we get afew Rexys on the cruise on that note, nothing better than cruising with cars like your own

Cruise is almost 2weeks away & counting down!!!

UPDATE ON MEET PLACE!!!

Due to Silverwater Boat Ramp being too crowded with Sunday Sports... the MEET PLACE has changed to the details as follows:

MEET: P6D Parking (NO BOOMGATES) @ Olympic Park (Cnr of Australia Ave & Parkview Drive)
OVERFLOW PARKING: $4 in the CarPark out the back of P6D, (Entry is via P6D at the back & through BOOMGATES) or parking may be available opposite P6D in Office Complex Carpark- on Parkview Drive!

NOTE:
P6D can hold roughly around 150cars, the overflow at the back of P6D via BoomGates can hold roughly another 250->300!!! My apologies if you get stuck with having to park in the overflow, i agree its crap having to pay $4 for being there for up until an hour- for this reason we will be leaving at 11AM SHARP.... unfortunately this is our only option for a BIG meet destination- as all the other BIG carparks have BoomGates right on entry!!!

Looking like an epic cruise!! See everyone on Sudnay, it'll be on regardless of weather altough fingers crossed its at least dry for us
