fra66L - you will need a UHF radio... head to tandy / dicksmith or similar... depending on how much you want to spend you can get cheapos for under $50 or get a high quality Uniden for a lil under $100.

Boags - ill try to find my old UHF radios and bring em along... ill just have to remember to look for them.

thanks eveyone for coming along, it seems as though everyone had a great time!!! :mrgreen:

The roads were clear, the food was suprisingly great and yes i did over hear some of those convo's in the other table :shock:

A few of us including ASE05 and Matt (Astra Turbo) went for a \"spirited\" run up springbrook after... what a drive it was, we reached the top and met a couple guys in a 180sx who followed us down, the first sentence out of their mouth when we got to the bottom \"DAMN you guys are fast\" :lol:

Look forward to seeing you all at the next meeting

Eric & Katie

Thanks for the run Kit Kat! The 1st part was fun, food was great, company was fantastic and the run through Springbrook was a cracker!

The poor blokes brakes in the 180SX were smokin' at the end and my turbo a glowin' = :mrgreen:

Sorry I bailed - I was really interesting in going, but lets say I had \"issues\".

Not missing the dodgy day for anything though.

Yes, your "issue" of a girlfriend thought you invited her to spend time with her. So when that "issue" of a girlfriend had to work back late, she thought you'd plan something else together, rather than have you just bail on her to spend the night by herself.

uh oh.... ---- someones in trouble now!

welcome to the fourms leesa

Most definitely the best night Iâ€™ve had with the car yet. Thanks Eric for all your efforts. Much appreciated.

The run up Springbrook after dinner was awesome. Kitkat lead the pack from the beginning. As soon as the pace was on, the Astra Turbo proved to be just as quick (Iâ€™m starting to believe that the Astra Turbo handles better than a WRX

) This pace proved too quick for Mr Starlet who was scrubbing his tyres on every corner and having ASE05 all over his tail. As Kitkat disappeared from site, muzza2 and I had a great time witnessing Mr Starlet being harassed by ASE05 :lol:

. After gaining the experience from the last unofficial run, Mr Starlet was confidently able maintain a fast pace throughout the hill climb which was surprising (still unable to keep up with Kitkat but who can?

). I was constantly looking in my rear-view mirror to make sure that SP23 didn't understeer off course (luckily it didn't) and believe it or not, R34 was no where to be seen. By the 5th or 6th corner, R34 confirmed that they forfeited in trying to keep up with the pace.

Can't wait to do something like this again. R34, Mr Starlet and SP23 all which to thank you all for making the Friday night a memorable one.
