What can I say and where do I start????? I had such an awesome day and it was fantastic to finally meet you all and put some faces to names. Well done Chrissy and thanks for organising the cruise :D
I found out today exactly what my car can do and how hard it can be pushed :roll:

I'm glad to hear that i'm not the only silly bastard who got sunburnt.... when I take my shirt off it looks like I have white sleeves on.... the rest of my arms are bright red :oops:


Fig... it was great cruising behind you back to Torquay... and yeah the westgate was terrible!!!

All the pics posted look great... once again thanks to all who were there and a special thanks to Chrissy once again 8)

me too !

Was it a bandwidth issue?

Or you need to go through the video and pixel out some numberplates?
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Annual? Where you going Chrissy!

I was talking with some mates about making it a monthly event! ie pick a Sat or Sun once a month (3rd Sat/Sun of every month) and do a run! :)

Guys, as much as I love a good fang on a twisty road, somehow I'm not liking the sound of a video where the participants are insisting on having their plates blanked out, and the mentions of speed.

I know this run had nothing to do with the Mazda MX-5 Club of Vic, but like it or not any local gathering of MX-5s is going to be indirectly representing us, and representing every performance loving road user out there.

I admit I'm probably jumping to conclusions here, but basically I'd rather not have to deal with the results of any reckless behaviour. So have a good think about what image you're projecting when you go for a thumping drive in a large group.

OK, nanny mode off, back to your regular programming... :P (damn it's hot today)
