  1. Updated Cruise List for November 1. EvilDaifu 2. k31th
  2. Anyone interested in clearing their pipes with some throaty turbo roar in November? I am Dates to be set, I just need to check out what is available in the way of accomodation then ...
  3. Ummm ... I want (based on 1965 Ford Mustang underpinnings) https://www.drive.com.au/news/-holy-smokes-batman-you-can-own-a-batmobile-for-under-40-000-125236.html?trackLink=SMH2
  4. Just watched this and apparently the Tesla featured in the vid can do 0-200km/h in 2.5 sec It dragged a HSV in the vid.
  5. Well, let's see how things pan out for later this year. It's only March and so by September/October, things may be looking up for a November Snowy's Cruise in my opinion
  6. Bought this back in December 2020 as was getting sick and tired of my eBay cheapies falling off where I mounted them and bits of plastic failing on them rendering them useless. This is a pic of my Ram Mount phone holder. I think they use them on motocycles as well (some who uses them could confirm) as I have seen them on them I think. It is soooo good. Bit expensive, but had I bought one in the first place, I actually would be ahead on spend now as I have gone through at least 4 cheapies RAM Twist-Lock Suction Mount w Large X-Grip (RAM-B-166-UN10U) Paid $109 for mine (which includes delivery) This is the larger one which can hold larger phones like my Samsung Galaxy S10 5G. The pronged fingers don't touch any of the side buttons on my phone and it's low enough that it does not block much of my forward vision through the windscren.
  7. Thanks Reg. Do you think you can join us if we aim for November this year for the Snowy's Cruise?
  8. Just posting up an update on my FPV F6 air-conditioning issue that I mentioned back in August last year - got it resolved today thanks to Wishart Auto Tune in Kensington VIC. Stuart there did a great job, they specialise in auto air-conditioning and auto electrical repairs. It was a broken blender on the drivers side, apparently a common fault for our Fords and my car being 10 years old now it was probably due to happen sooner or later. Did not have to take the dash out - that would have been an expensive repair job. Turned out to be very reasonable cost to repair. They suggested it could be the drivers side blender motor over the phone after I explained it was making a knocking sound under the dash on the drivers side and was blowing hot air all the time on the drivers side but the passenger side appeared to be working okay. And confirmed it was as they thought after inspecting the car today and let me keep the faulty part that they replaced. Thanks Wishart Auto Tune See pics of faulty part below. Posting this up justin case it helps someone else \
  9. Hey @El Andrew no worries. We may have to schedule this in the usual month of November later this year to give the vaccine a good run.
  10. With recent announcements of State border closures, just putting this on monitor for now so not gonna make any accommodation bookings just yet 😥
  11. Well, who else forgot this was happening on 31 December 2020? https://www.drive.com.au/news/vale-holden-end-of-the-road-today-after-72-years-124850.html?trackLink=SMH2 They already started pulling down the signs ...
  12. Looks like lots of accomodation still available if we book ahead. I've checked on the usual hotels and they all have several rooms available. Please don't book anything just yet as I will post up the official list of accomodation soon as its easier if we can stay together. Looking at the following: Tumut Friday 5 March Jindabyne Saturday 6 March Omeo Sunday 7 March (for those keen to do the extra day Vic Alpine National Park)
  13. Hi Guys, Any interest to do a Snowy Cruise in November 2021? I know this thread was about the one in March initially, but I guess nobody will be annoyed if I edit it and propose one for November Post up if interested. More details to follow. Excellent way to support local tourism as well
  14. Merry Christmas guys! Hope you like this Thanks @YLD127 Next proposed cruise is Snowy's Cruise in March over VIC Labour long weekend 5-8 March 2021 if interested ...
  15. Ford releasing an electric Mustang just saw this https://www.drive.com.au/news/2021-ford-mustang-mach-e-gt-performance-edition-detailed-124689.html?trackLink=SMH2
  16. I would like to but I think we better play safe a bit. Plus it may be to short notice for some and maybe finances tight for some as well. Probably better to aim for maybe March next year in my opinion?
  17. Just saw this about new Mach 1 Mustang ... https://www.caradvice.com.au/895099/2021-ford-mustang-mach-1-to-cost-from-83365-plus-on-roads-auto-and-manual/
  18. I don't think it makes sense to hold the Snowys Cruise in Nov 2020 this year unfortunately. My work reckons it won't be until Mar next year before I'll be allowed to fly anywhere or to visit customers face to face ...
  19. Wonder if my FPV FG 2010 has a similar issue of faulty Evaporator Temperature Sensor. Been really cold in Melbourne in June/July and after getting my car back from the hail storm repairers (yeah several farrkn big hail stones in Jan got me before I could drive the car under cover) it started to make a thumping noise in the air con system piping under the dash closest to the driver side. Happens when I first start up the car on cold mornings so whilst the temp is getting up. I noticed if I have it on full blast for maybe 10 mins or so, the thumping stops as if the temp has stabilized at some steady state (maybe temp I dialed up - usually sits around 20.5 deg C but on cold mornings I crank it up to 23.5 deg C). I know its the air con causing the thumping noise, like some flap controlling air flow getting stuck or jammed, because as soon as I turn off the air con, the thumping noise stops. Anyone else had this issue with their FGs? If so, how did they get it resolved? I am thinking of taking it to an automative coolings place to get my air con serviced. Are there in recommendations in Melbourne? Probably have to wait until after Stage 4 lockdown though to get it serviced. Thanks for any help

  23. Okay guys a real blast from the past - can't believe it was almost 8 years ago we did this cruise above - @Rockatansky you did a fantastic job taking us through hellava lot of film locations in one day What's more - we re-lived those places for reel (you saw what I did there ) Anyways - was perusing YouTube today and came across this vid below which gives the address details of some of the locations and it immediately brought me back to that fantastic iconic cruise we did as a forum back in 2012
  24. Saw this review of the Mustang R-Spec today - looks pretty good https://www.drive.com.au/new-car-review/2020-ford-mustang-r-spec-review-123704.html?trackLink=SMH0
