Well folks, top day. Lots of pickups, lots of stops on the way, but bugger me - to get 9 cars together was well worth it! And a half a good run up Maquarie Pass on the way home was good to... be better if we got the whole road to ourselves, but I think every sight see-er & their dog had the same idea today! Good to see so many well loved FTO's out there.Here's the happy snaps - I can email hi-res to those who'd like it. Just PM me your email address & mailbox size limit.

Hello peeps,

I dunno how i managed to lose everyone on the way back..!! i was following digital import and anubis.. ! then we went 5kn the wrong way, came all the way around again, and by that time Kazbah called and I dunno where I was exactly.

hehe, sorry guys, would have loved to come thru Mac pass.. heard it was very scenic..!

It was great to meet u all, and the lunch was nice.. wish we stayed a bit longer to have a bonding session, but i guess it was too windy..

Thanx for the pics Ben.!

Hot hot hot!! 8O


Dang good turnout guys!!

Good to meet new people and see old faces.
Was a fair way to drive but the drive home was short due to a rally spec Evo deciding to come along side the car. :lol:

And I got RBT'd in Moss Vale too :roll:


Now I just need to work on getting the ACT guys to come to something like this.

Oh and I like that rearview shot Ben :P

WHOA!!! sexy stuff! 8)

great pics Bennoz, though, what WERE u standing on when u took some of the above shots? :D

would have loved to come today, but couldnt find a ride...

3 things i noticed though

1) GOD-DANG OF A CARBON F. BONNET! lucky i wasnt there in person~ mighta spasmed on the spot! :oops: :oops:

2) afew ppl have installed there seat covers 8) , and i'm so pleased that so many of us bought them, because now overall we've increased the values of a lot more FTOs!!!

3) LOVE the Mitsubishi red diamonds that someone stuck on their bonnet! how much is it for something that size?

CONGRATS GUYS! i'm sure u turned heaps of heads, :arrow: all the way there and all the way back!!! hahahha

might have more ppl wanting to buy fto's after the success of todays cruise :mrgreen: :wink:
:mrgreen:

Thanks all for an awesome day. Was really good to finally meet a few fellow FTO lovers, as well as get a look at everybody's tasty rides.

Moment of the day: seeing a whole bunch of FTOs slam on the brakes about 50m past Heathcote Maccas :)

A number of people think it was them, so dont worry Anubis, we'll just hold our collective breaths and hope it was just the sun reflecting off the flash unit... :? :wink:

We really couldn't have been doing anything over 85 in an 80 zone, so I don't think we've really got anything to worry about.

Yeah, Im workin' with the sun light theory.... I was doing 85 MAX...
Kaz was behind me doing 80 on the dot. I dont reckon they'll worry about 5 over even if it was a happy snap.
