Sounds like a plan.....

Gee, I've been planning a Darwin trip for work purposes very soon but this would mean a fly-in trip.

Anyway, when I do I'll PM you Territorians to see if I can hook up with a couple of you.

Like the Bikeman says, "Sounds like a plan"

Depending on time and date, the Old Man and I will be VERY interested.

Tell ya what, if we get the Vortech installed, we will be there, I'll take leave for this event.

Mmmmmmmm..........No speed limit! Sorry, too much "Simpsons" (If there is such a thing).

What about skids, are they legal?
Scotty

Only ones in your undies.
:lol:

OK, we'll see who else is interested and we'll try and work for a date that will suit most people....

Scotty,

I'm sure we are going to have to give you both an award and a new name.

and maybe a new set of rear tyres as well......


Thank God for big kids....

Yours will be cause they are so small :P

hooray for "Skiddy" :lol:

Dad and I are REALLY interested in this, he was a territorian for many years,in Darwin as well a croc shooting on the North West Coast etc. As for a date before October would be great as Dad's got an exhibition in New Zealand on about the 2nd.

It would be too oppressive in the build up to the wet up there after that anyway wouldn't it?

Righto, that's one taker.....
good point about the weather....not to mention what it does to the T's performance....

Oops...Two takers?
sept some time?

I'll almost be ready for a break from work by then - consider me a possible. Would be good to blow a few cobwebs out of the T.


Trent.

goodness gracious me,sounds like a werry good twrip,are camels wellcome, not near Palmer is it sixpan?

ramm

Hey crash,
I can't hold a candle to you. Oh yes I can
Scotty

Your avitari is making my head spinning,

ramm

Not sure if I can make this one ...

Hi there Ramm.....
How do you like your camels?

One hump, or two?

:lol:


sorry sixfan, for off topic.
Would love to come to NT. Never been there.
Can't make it this stage though. I'll have to take a rain cheque.

Goodness gracious me,

ramm

Thanks for the invite sixfan planning an NT trip b4 years end.Lived in Wagaman many years ago and worked for Grace Bros. removals at Winnelie.Is the drive-in still going?That used to be a scream.Your in one of the best places on earth you lucky B@st$rd.Look you up if dates/times match.

what a loss that'll be,
Scotty

Righto.

I've done some checking and I can organize a tour of the old ww2 sites up here, a 5 hour trip seeing old airfields, ammo dumps (careful, there are still UXB's...) a chemical warfare disposal site (yep seems we've got 'em even if Iraq doesn't...) and a couple of wrecked B24 bombers...Cost is $25 a head.

I can also organize an underground tour at our mine for any who are interested, but get in quick for this one as numbers are limited...

When we fix a date, I'll also see if we can do an all T day at Hidden Valley, for this I suggest an oil cooler and dot 5.1 brake fluid...

May be able to also do a deal with the Darwin Central Hotel, as we should spend some time in Darwin...

Also, If you'r interested how about a fishing charter?

my speed limiter works ooooops not for long its gotta go..

Hey Mack, Dad and I are tossing up the airport option as well. We were looking for a holiday somewhere away from here! Far, Far Away. Where abouts would we be based?

Doing some enquires on accomodation and such now. Sixfan, any updates?Also, Dad's bone is that if we go bush at all, we couldn't take our regular cars, I explained that the Territory may have changed in the last 40 years but he doesn't think so

What kind of activities could be planned? Track day?Mmmm, hire car Magna Bush Treks? Fishing?.....Drinking :lol:

Cheers,
Lumpy

err,
Lump, did you see my last post on the previous page?

Curse you people all posting after I look at the thread!

Sixfan,
Just had a look at your location, Brocks Creek is about 100 Mile south of Darwin?Is that where we'd be holed up? The Mine, is it working or retired, Dad's eyes shot up when he thought Gold! He had an old Tin Show not far from there.

How long all up do you think it would be? 1 week? 10 days? The tour sounds cool, as does the fishing and the Track day!

One thing people may want to know isthat 98 Octane fuel isnt available west of Roma, so for those people who prefer/need it, either we load up the utes with Optimax Barrells or get a Premium 95 Octane tune?

Great points Lump,

Brocks is about 140K's South of Darwin, ( 45 mins drive :lol: )but I don't suggest we hole up here (for long.) I live here and I'd love to get the hell out too!

The mine is currently on Care and Maintanance, but things are happening and I may not be that way for long, yup it's a gold mine and you can keep any bits you find....

I'm open to suggestions for a timeframe, It's cool with me as I'm not the one making the big drive, I suggest 1week as a MINIMUM.

I'll track down the availability of 98 tommorrow and let you know...I know you can get it in Darwin, Premium is available along the way and once we confim dates / numbers / departure points I'll try and get a list for those interested, we can also try and get group discounts for those travelling together, as the dry season comes to an end, people are keen to make deals.

I'll do the checking tommorrow or monday when dudes are open....

thanks for the queries, i'm getting really keen to meet you guys and see some of the awsome modded T's that we don't see here, (no bas*ard willing to do the work here!)

Oh yeah,
transport is provided for the tour.

Count me in whatever date you set. Need to blow the cobwebs out, again.

Count you in?
Mate you were already at the top of the list!

Does anybody know a company that will rent hire cars to under-21's?

Im probably coming up by myself via Aeroplane as Dad has to be in South Australia at the same time.

Any idea on a date, now that Dad's probably not coming I'm easy, I've just got the 'Ulmarra River Festical' in early August and I will NEED a holiday after that.

Awaiting with baited breath...

Ok,
Time to set some dates...I'll post some tomorrow...when I've got my diary!

hey Lump, I'll rent you my Daimler, if you promise to treat her nice...

Sixfan, sounds like a great idea, however my 9 weeks leave this year are already booked up as is the $$$. Hope you get a good turn out and have a great time!

Call in sick!
Sorry Boss, Turbo-culosis!!

whoops, busted, again
Scotty

Just a quick (off-topic) observation Sally ... how unusual eh?

You've made it to the 4000 post mark.

... don't you ever call me a post w h o r e ok!

Kenny is a post w h o r e.... Kenny is a post w h o r e....

OK
Scotty

Suggested dates:
August 21 to August 28.

Hmmm, I'll just check on the dates for the river festival, but Im almost sure its the weekend before (15thish)

Any updates on prices etc Sixfan? Im almost a definate!


Come on all you other mob!!!

What about some of the West Australian and South Australian guys?

Redhawk and Hypnodoc you can stretch the legs of the BOSS Brigade???


Sorry if I'm interfering or anything Sixfan

:lol: No! No!
Please! All your comments and questions have been great!

Need some more numbers to get discounts! if anyone else is "offically / semi offically" interested PLEASE PM me or post here so I can try for some group discounts.
Lump, If it's just you NT Turbo and me, we'll still do it!

Ah, finally ... a 3 Stooges reunion ... :lol:

And THAT coming from Stan Laurel

People in glass houses kenny.......

Now there's an advert for window tinting
Scotty

Maybe if I jump up and down lots some people will actually pay some attention to the thread!

OK, here goes nothing

Phew, everybody looking now???



COME ON YOU SOUTHERNERS! Get into gear and lets plan this Territory thing! Please! It would be great to organise a big get together. I'm pretty sure I'm flying in though, I can meet you guys there!

Mack, got a set date for that trip, or fancy quelling a few JD's on the flight up?

Tab, got that Chefs sabbatical yet?

DucatiJB Still interested? Do you wonder what a 996 will do flat knackers? WELL FIND OUT!

Scotty, bet ya can't do a burnout in the NT! Only one way to prove me wrong ya big girl!

and all you WA and SA people, it's practically a stones throw away, NO EXCUSES FOR YOU LOT!

Actually ALL YOU OTHER LAZY BEGGARS, SIGN UP or MISS OUT! The Territories great, the grogs free, all the women are honeys, the scenery will knock your eyes out and you can drive as fast as you want (or so im lead to believe) WHO WOULDN'T WANT THAT?
