dude you'll use about half a tank petrol return trip in an fto about 400kms
and with an evo takes about 1.7 tank petrol haha

AJ u are welcome just let me know!, theres a 10sec evo there too if u can persuade him to give u a stick!

The meeting point will be Loftus soccer field carpark- Princess Highway just after sutherland (first left after the railway crossing) in Loftus. Its about 100 metres before the national park turnoff. Aim to be there around 9, as we need to leave by 9:30. Be sure to have a FULL tank of fuel before arriving as there wont be any 98ron fuel until the way back!

quote from the evo forum :
Hey guys,

I've been wanting to organise a cruise for ages, so i've gotten off my ass to plan.

When:
Sunday 26th November

Where:
Meeting Point: Loftus soccer carpark- Princess Highway Loftus (50 metres after the railway crossing, 100 metres before the national park turnoff)
Time: Meet at 9am, Leave by 9:30am
Bring:
-Ensure you bring a FULL tank of fuel as there is no 98ron fuel until we start heading home. Best places to fill up- Shell at Kirrawee- Vmax & Vmax Racing (100ron) on princess highway. There is also a BP at sutherland- also on princess highway
-Also bring Mobile phone (in case you get lost/ separated/ cant find pub etc)
- If its your first time on these roads bring a co-driver to follow the directions (highly recommended). If your super keen do some research and make pace notes hehe- kidding!

The Plan
The plan is to head down south. The route has been set (tested today ) and will involve at least 5 sets of "very, very enjoyable twistie sections of road". These sections vary from 5kms to 20kms of winding, hairpin riddled, switchback filled stretches of tarmac!! The full details / directions will be given to each person when they arrive in case we get separated.

Weather/ Lunch Details
Weather looks good at this point. The 10 day forecast shows it as Sunny with Min 21 deg, Max 30 deg. Lunch will be just outside Robertson in Burrawang. Its the local pub with awesome food and great spot- i've made a reservation for 20 people, with room for more (Please PM me if you are DEFINATLY coming so i can ensure we have enough room).

Remember- This is not a race. There may be some spirited driving, but the last thing anyone wants is to see a damaged evo, or worse- an injured person!
