Go for Broke Results.

Well, the weather held out, the traffic was minimal, & everything pretty much went according to plan.
We had a nice early meet up at Baulkham Hills, where I took the opportunity to put a nice big gash in my leg & finally get to use my first aid kit (yay, not). After distributing the supplies for the day, which consisted of: a 3 burner BBQ, 3 eskies of drinks & 1 of meat, a 9Kg gas bottle, 1/2 dozen loaves of bread plus all the surplus supplies, which was severlely weighing down my little celica, about 18 of us (including a nice blue datto 1600) headed off to Windsor to our first stop.
Here we met up with another 2 dattos, both pretty schmick. I especially liked the one with the almost identical orange paint job to my car.
Anyway, we hit Putty Rd & had a real nice run, & made our first stop at the Putty rd Halfway House, where we were greatly entertained by the ancient petrol bowsers, and Troyboys inability to operate them!
So we forged on, up the second half of Puttey rd, which is definitely the better half, but got stuck behind a big ass old shitbox XD Falcon, right before the best bit!!!
No matter, it was a good chance to enjoy the scenery.
Eventually we made it to Broke, where barbie was fired up and lunch was prepared. Luckily we had the whole pcnic area to ouselves, so disturbing family picnics with 20 or so hotted up cars wasn't a worry.
A really big thank you goes to the cooks, the butterers, the supplies carriers & everyone else who helped out.
After lunch we played around with the cars, moving them all together for a big group shot.
After that we packed up & headed off toward Cessnock.
These roads through the Hunter Valley were a bit bumpy & rough, and the traffic a bit heavier, but there was plenty to look at.
Cessnock was our next stop, & after cruising through town we discovered the spread of rice through our country is as far spread as Cessnock!
Never mind, there were still plenty of traditional Aussie bogans around, ready to flip the bird at the threatening 4 cylinders.
Out of Cessnock we hit the freeway & headed home making a short stop at the big Caltex along the way & ending out journey at Maccas for dinner.
Thanks to everyone that came, keep an eye out for the next one too.

Twas an awesome cruise Joel...
Good work on organising such a good day out...
The Cessnock Bogan was in the green Falcon... As I said when I saw it, he must've been previously beaten by a Toyota...

Sorry all that we couldn't stop at Cessnock and had to keep going. Had a Bday dinner to be at in the City and were getting a bit pressed for time..
Was a great day and some fun roads! Will be taking that trip again in the not too distant future I hope.
Can't wait to see some pics!
Cheers
Joel

Hey guys
Well for those of you who remember me, I was the passenger in the black supra. This was the first time I had done anything with the Toymods club and certainly not the last. I had an awsome day and to those I spoke to I learnt alot from. I drive a AE92 seca so there was alot of helpful people around. Thanks guys for the great day and I am looking forward to doing it all again.

draven..
Something something cops + being in car with guy who is street racing = cops revoke your licence that you have only just got for "participating in illegal racing"
i went and re-did my L1's this morning.. just gotta go resit my test now, and do the stupid hazard perception...
its a great way for htem to make more money ..
ahh well.. thats another 100 odd off my car.
>.<
never gonna be able to get it at this rate.. LOL
i really dont think they can bust me for being in there.. but they did.. im over it now, just working on getting it back.
Peace

that is seriously fucked up.
I would have bsed my way out of it
"oh no officer, I was going for a drive with him. He wanted to street race. I told him I didn't want anything to do with it, but I couldn't physically stop him without causing an accident"
if he was any sort of friend, he'd know he was boned and back up your story. If the cops still decided to charge you, I guarantee a judge would see it your way

Yeah, but Roy has gotten in trouble to keep me in the clear more than once.. i told him just to deal with himself.. i cant get it too bad.. so im looking at a new car for me, gonna call the guy this arvo.. and then im going to sort out my licence again.
given any luck i will have my supra in the next couple of weeks
hopefully.. then i will sort out a cruise and have my licence before you can say a really long word of my choice.
but things may be looking up, some bad news, followed by what could be very good news
... as long as its not auto.
