the only porblem with running a cruise is you are at the front and don't get to mingle with all the cars in the middle, but i did enjoy gav and kurt pushing me hard, i was finding new limits to the coilovers and then some more. i need more suspension mods before i can run with you guys properly i think. hey peps, post some pics!

I can't wait for you to get some bars in that car so I can't keep up, or atleast need to struggle to!

The Mandaspeed Excel is a beast, can't beat that good old fashioned SOHC techology! I know the *mighty* SP18 struggled to escape it's all ecompasing grasp at one stage.

Hey cuz, don't get too excited, I had 16 cars on the Tambo cruise. But you know it's a good cruise when the hiccups don't ruin the day, and the peeps only remember and savour the day for it's merrits.

Actually, it's nice to see someone other than the regulars organising a cruise for a change, I think it throws in a good mix of variety and breaks away from the safe tried and true formulas. And a cruise can still be great even without a couple of the regulars being there, so that's no reason for anyone to pike if it was a deciding factor.

Damn, and you gotta respect how far Ryan has to come to a Southy cruise now! Took me like 2 hours or more to get home with the highway blocked off and all. I hope everyone made it out the other side of the day with no damage or fines.

Need more!

I would really like to see the Bat mobile return soon/asap. I miss it so much. Then we could have 2 blue, 2 red and 2 grey.

It was a fun/well organised cruise i reckon with a nice turnout, we should do it again soon. Especially liked the newly surfaced twisties before Kenilworth and the slow(damn 4wd's) uphill single lane climb before montville.
Thanks for letting us all into your house and cooking for us too, i still owe ya $2 Ryan :P

Hopefully next time i will have improved suspension and tyres for some even more spirited driving.
