Well the time has (finally!) come for the next cruise, it will be very similar to the one held in February of last year. We are still nutting out some of the finer details, but to make sure everyone can get the day off to attend, this is what has been decided so far ...

Date: Saturday 13th December 2003

Time: meeting at 12pm for socialising and BBQ (sausage sizzle and drinks available), for a 1.30-2pm cruise departure

Location: Wahminda Park on Samford Road in Ferny Grove (Ref. UBD Map 117, D17)

Cruise Details: still to be finalised, but most likely will head over Mt Glorious/Nebo, through past Wivenhoe Dam and Fernvale and end up at Willowbank Raceway for some racing or spectating at the Test'n'tune.

Those wishing to participate in the cruise will abide by all road rules and require a mechanically sound vehicle as the mountain ranges can be tough on brakes. Those who wish to disregard road rules will not be welcome on the cruise. Responsible driving is encouraged!

This post will be updated when the route has been finalised ... so keep watching. If you have any friends with dattos who would be interested in coming on the cruise, please let them know about it and and encourage them to send an email to brisbanedatsunclub@hotmail.com with their full name, car details and phone number so we can add their name to our contact list.

Looking forward to seeing lots of 1200's there!

Sounds Good - all you lucky Qld'ers.

Its a bit far for me too travel across 3 states though......................

Oh Well maybe next year........................

dammmmit my ute wont be finished!!!! about a week later yeah! spewn!!
i might cruise down in my other car just 2 watch events..

I should be able to make it i just have to get some new tyres. they got fried sunday afternoon. Will it be just datsuns or are newer nissans welcome as well. i have some friends that will be going to the test and tune to run a GTIR powered SSS pulsar.
Is it open to all car enthusiests.
WHY WON'T YOUR CAR BE READY

Look forward to seeing you there ...

Nissan's are welcome too (the gti-r powered sss sounds sweet), but I am expecting that most of the cars will be older models datsuns. I wouldn't really say that its open to all car enthusiasts - there are other cruises organised regularly for all kinds of cars, and it would sort of defeat the point of it being a Datsun cruise!!

Cheers

1200ca cause one of my struts are bent i didnt know.. i have 2 FIND a new strut and then replace it.. and my interior isnt finished.. lol dam fussy person i am had 2 be picky about interior...
but everything else is done now!
i can get some tyres if u want on trx rims... about 4 spares for burnouts if u want them..?
sorry for highjacking the tread...

Damn, I would love to attend, except I'm pretty sure the 1200 won't make it up or down Nebo alive. Need to get that brake booster in first
Speaking of which, can any one in Brisbane recommend a good value, and quality, workshop that would be able to install a brake booster (a little custom work involved I think, no more room on the firewall )

The images from the cruise are now online at www.turbophile.com - follow the link from the main page or look in the gallery. 120 images!! (hence taking so long to get them up!)

Thanks to everyone who attended, it was a great day! The next cruise will be held around Easter and will be a Sunshine Coast destination.

Cheers
