Unless you live in the Barossa, in which case it is closer to 270km.

Count me in as a greater than 50% chance of being there.

If he's doing what he was talking about and just reversing the cruise we did the other weekend, I used half a tank in 150km .... I may have been...errm, a LITTLE boost happy though ;)

EDIT: just re-read original post, it sounds like we're not even reversing it :P - oh and are you going to have your own car to lead in this time Karl? ;)

From what I've seen, isn't 1/3 of Brad's front bar still missing? This is going to be an interesting little convoy :lol:

No, Ben, in fact, I'm picking up the repaired beast today. I've been driving around in a granny-grade Lancer for the last week: 0-100 in a minute and a half. I didn't think it was possible to drive a more uncomfortable car until I started driving that one.

And Michael, my car is totally stock, too, so don't despair about trying to impress - just the sheer numbers will leave them in awe!

cheers,

Nice! :)

Oh and re: numbers - you match the number of cars on the previous cruise all by yourselves, so yes :P
