Post by AJ »

Hi all, this is in conjunction with MLGA (Mirage Lancer Group of Australia)
Here is some more information to wet your appetite!

Cruise information.
Departure point.
Meet at: North Parramatta McDonalds
Time: 8:30am meet, 9am depart
Date: 12th February 2005
Notes:
CB Channel: 19 (pre cruise)
Basic Directions: Start out from North Parra Maccas, jump onto the M4 and cruise west to Penrith. Get off the M4 at Mulgoa Road and arrive at Maccas (Panthers) at around 9:30am where the rest of the cruise members will be waiting. From Panthers it's twisties & highways over the mountains throught Leura, Katoomba to Mount Victoria. From there it's straight thru Lithgow then Bathurst.

Arrival point.

Notes: Stop for an extended lunch and see the city, drive a lap of Mt Panorama and put the cars on the dyno. (Dyno cost = $60 for 3 runs)

Hi everyone,

Sorry I didnt post sooner... we were pleasantly suprised when we were told that there will be some FTO's coming on the Bathurst Cruise - the more the merrier, FTO's are always welcome to cruise with us!

Just a note to the FTO's meeting us at Penrith Maccas: I and a blue mirage will be there, my car is a white lancer 4door, ya cant miss it.

I will PM the updated details to AJ so he can post them up in this thread. Interesting points to note are that we'll aim to drive a normal lap of mt panorama and also put the cars on a dyno. Dyno cost = $60 for three runs - consider it if youre keen!

PM sent and see yas there!

Come on, who's up for it? Remember this is a SATURDAY cruise too.

Bugger. I've messed up my dates and double booked. I won't be able to make this one as I'm in Canberra for the weekend :cry: luckily there is a cruise on there too! :D

I'll still help organise this one as much as I can though.

Cheers,
AJ. 8)

Still can't believe this is happening just after I leave!

Typical.....

Anyhow, hope you all have a great time and dont forget to take plenty of pics and post them! Actually interested too see how the lancers and mirages do on the dyno too.

Any FTO's doin the dyno thing?

I know its not officially our cruise - but do you think there would be any problems if a couple of motor bikes tagging along? They could be our recon for radars!! :wink: It may not even eventuate but just thought I'd check just in case...

See you all Saturday

I'm fairly sure ive seen the FTO200 car somewhere near Wollongong a few times. Does it have a big black FTO decal running up the side?
