Sup, I gotta new job in Rocky. Any body else up that way? My AE86 will be coming to visit after a few months too.
So who's up there? Who wants to be friends :) ?
Love,

Yo, just noticed this.

I'm in Rocky. Not much usually happens around here but its pretty easy town to live in. We had a moto-rama type thing the other weekend, it was fairly good.

If you see a bright yellow escort van that's likely to be me. Unfortunately my AE86 is a while away yet. Rust issues :(

That could be, my brother lives in some estate in Kawana and I go there a fair bit, but I can't remember the name.

The moto-rama was pretty well done for a Rocky gig. There was heaps to watch, as well as the actual time trials they also had a 4x4 display, a few show cars, dyno, and vendor stalls. Was worth the entry fee I think.

I just accepted a job in Moura (includes living in Bilo), working for Incitec. Should start that early next year.

I haven't heard anything so far. But it's something that would be awesome to try out. I got my fingers crossed that it happens again. Not that I would have my car ready in time anyway but still...

found this article from last year
http://www.themorningbulletin.com.au/story/2010/07/02/how-goods-your-car/

but if its the same 250ish entry again i think they can go get fucked, and if the really wanted to take it off the streets and target everyone that the article talks about it wouldn't be so expensive

Yeah the event could have been done better.

That's a bummer about your motor mate. Good luck with the rebuild. I have seen your car cruising around once or twice, looks nice!

Is it a turbo gze?

Just saw this thread . My Sid and I brought our sprinters up from Wollongong . We are in emerald. My car is in a slow build but plan on being road worthy in december and my sis has a 4ac mint 86. We had emerald Jdm cruise in April which was pretty good.
