Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
HeHe I felt bad implying that you couldnt see Stef !!! Well I think as Mat suggested we could use the top carpark at scabs to just meet up and have a good chat with everyone,then if ppl want to head off somewhere as a group or catch up with an AL cruise etc that would be a good start...

Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Mate I nearly pulled in as I went past but I've been running on about 5hrs sleep every night this week and working with my mate equals a bit of hard yakka so thought better...felt like I just crawled into bed and then had to get up again as it was...all good... Thx and have a good weekend everyone...time for a few jars

Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Well Just got home from working with my concrete mate (he pays me good cash dollars for sat work) and I'm a bit sore but hey now I'm that little bit closer to my retune+new go fast bits...hahaha.... I Aplogize for the lack of maps etc but I knew that most of you would be fine with the meetpoints...I enjoyed talking to some of the ppl that I have seen in the past but hadnt introduced myself to so it was good....the best part of it all is that the good weather is still in front of us, so I am going to put in some effort in the future and try to come up with some good places to cruise to.....Got a bit of a surprise on my way home from freo last night,turned onto Morrison rd and thought I saw two familiar looking cars filling up at the BP (Adrian & Dean I think) then as I got a bit further up the rd I realized why.....Car park across from my local was chockers full of AL cruise!!! do you Know I live about 4kms from there and I could here them all lighting up the rears when they were leaving from inside my Bedroom!!!!! Simon you told me you were pegging out for the night when we left the tennis centre...liar!!! hahaha F6 was just too much fun yes???? well done for putting some more kms on the clock mate... Ok time for a shower got ppl comming over for a feed tonight.....cant be farked to be honest.....is it bad to have a beer in the shower???? hahahaha P.S Stef did you fix your rear vision mirror yet???? sorry for thinking you couldnt see last night because you needed glasses or something...my bad....

-
Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Ok update....original meetpoint is back on (state tennis centre) I have checked and nothing is on and carpark is accessible until midnight....will send pm to ppl that have confirmed....
-
Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Yes I was waiting for that reaction!!! I have met up on other cruises there its all good...I'm happy to change it back to Tennis centre just not sure if anything is on there...would prefer that as a start point....that's the only reason why I changed it..how about we keep it as originally planned then and use it as a backup if something is obviously on and it looks like it is full if that makes ppl feel more comfortable...
-
Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Ok due to this run being a bit short notice and not many ppl being able to attend I may look at canceling it to another time, depending on numbers, I will make the call tonight or tomorrow....so for those of you that are keen to make it, please post or send me a pm... The list of maybe's.... Bluute SteveR Sixapeal Lil_Bodes xr6tego XtremeF6 If it does go ahead it will be as follows... 8:15pm meetpoint at Point Fraiser open air car park (riverside drive opposite police HQ) 8:30/45pm departure. Scarborough or Hillarys Freo kings park(maybe) See how things pan out...I will be going for a drive anyway wether it goes ahead or not... Cheers

Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
This Friday night mate...Its a bit last minute I guess, if not many ppl can make it its no big deal, I will still be heading out somewhere regardless... could be raining for the next 3 weekends for all we know...Plus I have some new T1R's fitted so I want to see what their grip level is like
-
Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Good one Simon!!! I'm sure the F6 would enjoy it....I dont really get the opportunity to get out there as much as I'd like to so when the weather is like this its worth making the effort in winter...hope you can make it..
-
Chippa's Friday Night Cruise
Haha....well as stated in chit chat this is just an excuse to go for a burst,Friday is my preference.... I'm thinking meet up Somewhere central for most say Tennis centre around 8:30pm ( not sure if something is on there have to check) then maybe head up to Hillarys...from there head down to Freo (say Captain munchies area???)then to finish up at Kings Park.... I cant be arsed doing up maps etc we all Know these places I'm sure...but if ppl can be bothered doing this go for it!! These are just ideas feel free to throw in your ideas...like I stated this is just an excuse to get out there and let a few ppl catch up and for some of you new to the scene to come along its by no means a well organised cruise..I'll leave that to D.... Brendan make sure you can get out Friday mate I dont want to be the only Grandad there hahahaha Cheers

no worries D....I know you guys have been extremely busy of late,it was just a generalization that's all....I will have a think of a few places to go, a bit late I guess to start organising something...just wanting to take advantage of the good weather...

WA Spotted & Chit Chat Thread
Well sounds like there is some interest in a few of us getting out there for a drive....have a think about some destinations and post em up...just a casual cruise and meet up with a few ppl,its been awhile for sure. Friday night is a better night for me out of the two...can do Sat but cant get away until about 9:30pm. Maybe in the near future some well organised cruises can start happening again...nothing better than being surrounded by a heap of T's and F6's... See how we go...

What Boost Youz Running?
Interesting read to see what boost/power ppl are running,but just to step sideways a little....can someone shed some light in regards to boost and how it affects compression....I was once told told that for every pound of boost we put into these cars it ups the comp by 1....is this correct???? how much compression can these engines make/handle???? Thx in advance....

For those that might be interested I met up with a mate of mine who owns a mustang in Midland today to tag along with a large group of awesome GT's Mustangs and a mixed bag of other hot Fords in relation to a trip across the Nullabor by the ppl at AN racing for the Starlight charity in there 700 odd hp procharged XY....and drove out to see a large private collection of Awesome Fords which was just unreal...so heres a couple of pics...(just using my el cheapo digital camera)...was a great morning!! There are so many great cars on display would make a great Sunday morning cruise if we could organize it....good drive up thru the hills too...will look into it maybe...(not sure if fully open to public)
