I'll have time available to take off work, as long as the Lynx is gone soonish. and I can find accomodation cheaply.

we would consider it ... but know that no nswers would go down

chicaboo
16-06-2005, 05:07 PM
I didn't see any VICers at the Oz day cruise this year... hmmm?

Zoomer
16-06-2005, 07:24 PM
I'll most likely be there to watch.

bradsp20
16-06-2005, 09:44 PM
im with you Laser

need to find out where some cheap Acommo is up there

tidy protege
17-06-2005, 02:33 PM
put me down as a maybe, im not sure yet it depends what my bank account says after Autosalon Newcastle which is only a couple of weeks before this event. I may even car whore it up there with brad, im still very unsure tho. But it would be nice to see the Cruising life up at QLD, maybe while we are there we could have a look at the famous BWCP.

twilightprotege
17-06-2005, 06:44 PM
everyone should make the trip just to see the BWCP!!!!

chicaboo
17-06-2005, 08:58 PM
Yeah BWCP is massive if you get there before the porkies rain down on it...

twilightprotege
22-06-2005, 07:43 PM
come on....gotta be more southerners interested in coming up!

plenty of time to arrange time off work and get the trip organised!

if you're not coming for the jambo, come for the BWCP and (nate will love this) the mt nebo-glorious drive

chicaboo
23-06-2005, 10:44 AM
Nebo rains down **** splatters on Glorious. Even when I hang back miles on Glorious I still get bloody stone chips! Nebo just has the tender sweet loving roads that begged to be driven on. Not that I won't drive Glorious, it's just murder on your tyres and bonnet...

ill take the sp up there wit who ever else is drivein up. but ill have to c on the dates if i can get them off or not..

Laser the Amazer
10-07-2005, 09:03 PM
I'm still tossing up whether to come up or not.

I can probably stay with my relo's in brissie if need be.

its just whether to fly or drive cause I know willowbank isn't exactly next to brissie.

hrmmmm what to do

Rob

chicaboo
10-07-2005, 09:10 PM
Willowbank is only 45 minutes from the best part of Brisbane (south!). It's not so desolate.

bradsp20
12-07-2005, 09:10 PM
im still looking at coming up

Q2CDIS will do a rally up to Brissie mate also the Burgos as well at the moment

goldsp
12-07-2005, 09:26 PM
haha i might make it up , depends on coin flow at the time.

but it would be a good rally up to brissy and we could have some major fun on the roads

Q2CDIS
12-07-2005, 09:32 PM
hey dose ne 1 kno how much it is to enter in the show event??? cos i wont to put mine in there for show... cheers...

tidy protege
12-07-2005, 10:21 PM
Yeah as brad has said, im liking the sounds of this event, im not sure if ill bring up tidy or if ill car whore it with brad but it seems like it could be an awsome weekend and a great way to make up for all those trips you qld'ers have made down for our cruises.

Im curious to see who here is entering and how much entry fee is cause im partially interested in entering my car along side q2cdis at a show, as tidy will be more completed by then than it currently and im seriously considering skipping Autosalon Newcastle for this and making my 1st appearance at Autosalon Final battle in December at Sydney.

KittyKatSmack
14-07-2005, 10:42 AM
Maybe, I haven't spoken to Aaron yet, but I would love to come up.

If I fly up, will you peeps look after da Kitty?

I can stay with a friend in Morningside or alternatively if we drive up we can stay in same suburb as Nate.

I will let you all know later, but I doubt we would drive the MX5 up there, not enough luggage room in the boot ;)

twilightprotege
14-07-2005, 11:16 AM

twilightprotege
17-07-2005, 09:15 PM

Q2CDIS
18-07-2005, 04:25 PM
iam for sure...cos now i know i can have the thursday, friday monday n tuesday off work.. so im up for it 100% i just need to kno how much it will cost to enter in the show n just make some bookings on some were to stay for the couple of days...

Fro-Daddy

twilightprotege
18-07-2005, 07:35 PM
yep i'm just about to put in some time off from work too. atleast 1 or 2 days before the weekend to get the car set

tidy protege
18-07-2005, 09:44 PM
At this stage im very interested in coming, i dont know if ill come up in my car yet or brads, but i wouldnt mind taking my car on the open road to test some of the new goodies going on the car next month.

bradsp20
18-07-2005, 09:49 PM
im about 70 -80 % sure
the only thing is i cant get any time off and i get half day on the fri off...which i could get it changed to a full day... i need to get back to work on the mon :( so ill be there for the fri night, all day sat and then sun morn..
see how things go ill keep ya posted

Laser the Amazer
19-07-2005, 08:28 PM
I'm still undecided.

I can get time off work, whether to drive or not is another thing, where to stay.

I'm still a maybe, sorry guys

Rob

tidy protege
19-07-2005, 08:59 PM
A cheap forumla 1 hotel sounds the go, if we share the coats three way for the room it will cost us peanuts, but i want it to be in safe area cause i dont want anything happening to tidy.

Im in at this stage all depends with brad and james are going up cause i want to travel up in a group cause cruising on the open road is so much fun.

bradsp20
19-07-2005, 09:47 PM
Well Craig im looking at going up its just that ill have to leave on the sunday during the day sometime in order to get back for work on the monday.... im looking at getting the fri off but thats it so fri - sun

tidy protege
19-07-2005, 10:35 PM
yeah im cool with cruising back when ever on the sunday because we can attend the event on the saturday, go for a cruise on saturday night to the famous BWCP and have a look at that cruise scene, drop out to the show for a little while on the sunday morning and then headback down home via the coast.

chicaboo
19-07-2005, 11:04 PM
Hey Craig, you can cruise around with me if you don't bring your car up. Should be an interesting drive back along the Motorraceway1 to Brisbane from the BWCP...

tidy protege
20-07-2005, 09:38 AM

cool cool, im getting so keen for this cruise will be a great chance to see some nice cars at the show and at the bwcp.

im hoping to see antons car because im just interested to see and hear the thing in the flesh and i can dream what could have been if all these young people in fast cars didnt wipe them selfs out down here.

there's the formula1 motel at windsor (just north of the city - like 3 minutes drive from the cbd). on the main rd north, very central

twilightprotege

Q2CDIS

twilightprotege
20-07-2005, 07:22 PM
how long are the mexicans expecting to stay up here? just the weekend?

bradsp20
20-07-2005, 09:16 PM
Noice!!! thanks Andrew and Nate
give us a holla if ya have a bbq..
F1 sounds good would be cheap as for us Nsw pplz coming up..

tidy protege
20-07-2005, 09:34 PM
how long are the mexicans expecting to stay up here? just the weekend?

im guessing that we will be staying there on friday and saturday night, on the friday it looks like nates place is te goer for the bbq, on the saturday we could go to the jamboree, on the saturday night we could go to the bwcp and im guessing that we would leave brissie on sunday between mid morning and miday for the long drive home.

twilightprotege
21-07-2005, 07:10 AM
sounds fairy nuff. dont forget too that the jambo is saturday and sunday.

KittyKatSmack
21-07-2005, 08:28 AM
We are still maybe's, but we have a truck load of friends we can stay with in QLD, and potentially a road trip up to Cairns too.

Could be fun :D

tidy protege
21-07-2005, 09:19 AM
yeah we dont want to miss the jamboree on sunday morning but we will hae to leave so that the sydneysiders can get home by a reasonable hour so that they can make it to work on monday morning

Nate
21-07-2005, 09:56 AM
if we are having a BBQ at my place on saturday night i guess some of you could bunk down here, i have a futon and heaps of blow up beds, but its the wrong side of town for jambo ...

tidy protege
21-07-2005, 10:18 AM
im cool with what ever nate, ill have to catch both james and brad on msn so that we can work some stuff out in a convo, with competing in the show do you reakon it would be posible to enter for just one day because if was to enter id need to be able to leave through the day on sunday.

twilightprotege
21-07-2005, 10:36 AM
it would have to be very late saturday night nate. friday night will be the better bbq night

i dont know the schedule yet for the weekend, but i assume there will be racing or atleast qualifying saturday night for the drag racing

i guess the sydney guys could leave jambo mid afternoon sunday, drive to say tamworth etc, have a snooze for a few hours then continue on home. you'd be home by 8am and would have had 5 hours sleep (i guess)

Nate
21-07-2005, 10:52 AM

tidy protege
21-07-2005, 02:51 PM
By any chance would any of you have the times of the show, entry and competing times and fee's.

Once we have numbers we need to get prices for accomidation, at this stage it looks like its me, james and brad, but i know rob-80e is making the trip up and posibly some more NSW members as well. Also when we get there would it be posible for one of you guys to show us the way to our accomodation because i cant speak for the other 2 but i have never been actually into brisbane just past it on the way up to the sunshine coast.

With the roadtrip, i know you Queensland guys travel the inland route, but i have found that the coastal route is just as quick and there is less chance of stone chips and the trip isnt quiet as dusty.Thats something me and the fellow Nsw guys will have to discuss as well as i live right near the fork where the inland and coatal routes to qld start.

Nate
21-07-2005, 03:23 PM
for sure ... i will meet you on the gold coast and so you the way up ;)

twilightprotege
21-07-2005, 07:10 PM
i like the inland route because there are far far far less police and the road is more interesting. i dont think the stone chips would be any different either way, but the coastal has the advantage of split roads.

times etc, nope. the www.jamboree.com.au site hasnt been updated for ages

tidy protege
21-07-2005, 08:22 PM
well we just had our online meeting about it and the plan at this stage is to travel up the coast to brisbane, and we will meet one of you probably nate (as he has said in the thread he could meet us near the gold coast)on friday not sure what time as we have to plan what time we need to leave here.

It looks like we will be staying at a trusty formula 1 hotel, probably the one andrew mention earlier on in the thread. We will drop our bags of there and then after that probably go to nates bbq (if that is still happening).

On the saturday we will go to the show, at this stage Q2CDIS is entering and posibly me, brad is undecided about that. After the show we could have dinner and cruise to the BWCP as i have heard its the crusing place to be on a saturday night.

On Sunday we arnt really sure what time we are leaving but it will need to be at a time where the sydney boys can get back at a reasonable hour as brad is back at work on Monday.

Im extremely excited about this trip and am hoping that i can catch up and meet a few AstinaGT people, i am particulary keen to see antons turboed beast.

chicaboo
21-07-2005, 08:32 PM
Anton hasn't really shown much interest in the Jamboree, but closer to the weekend I'll SMS him and see if he's able to join us. If not, he's usually on th esplanade on a Saturday night anyway, I see him there quite often...

tidy protege
21-07-2005, 08:42 PM
excellent i might send him a pm before i come up and arrange to meet him at the esplanade cause i wanna see the car.

im thinkin bout headn up. how longs it take to get there doin the speed limit as im not loosing my license for a show. can one person drive the whole thing easy?

twilightprotege
22-07-2005, 07:06 AM
from maitland it's a 10 hour drive taking it easy

Nate
22-07-2005, 08:39 AM
depends on how young and stupid you are. if you pace yourself and not mind highway driving then you will be fine ... i did sydney to brisbane when i was sick in 11 hours in the sp18 mk2 ... however it should be a 12 hour dirve from sydney or as twiggy said 10 from newwy

tidy protege
22-07-2005, 09:27 AM
We were even considering leaving on thursday night and pulling an allnighter stopping a couple of times along the way, that way we could get to brisbane mid morning to midday,but that was just an idea.

We would leave here at say 9.30 or 10.00 at night and drive up stopping along the way.

Q2CDIS
22-07-2005, 12:25 PM
i reckon we leave thursday nite that way less ppl on the road n that way we can get up there not too l8 in the arvo so we crash out 4 a bit n still go out n enjoy the friday nite.. but we will have to wait on brad to c if he can get the friday off....

*starts yelling from Canberra*

*the cold air muffles the noise so it doesn't go anywhere*

I have been to QLD 3 times in the last 2 years though, so pretty pleased with that effort!

We are going to have to see how it goes for money to determine whether or not we can go....

I would love to take the Miata :)

ROB-80E
24-07-2005, 09:08 PM
I'll be leaving early week guys, so I'll be out of the whole group cruise up thing.

I dont understand why you want to leave at like 10pm at night though? :S It's not necessary. Yeah it takes 10 or so hours, but the traffic during the day is nothing anyway. Besides, you "should" only do the speed limit whether it be day or night.

For the past 3 years, I've left newcastle at 5am and made it to tweed border by 1pm. Yes this is traveling during the day and yes this doing the speed limit.

The reason I say it, is because it's much safer traveling the long trip during then day when your supposed to be awak. Remember the Dr. Carl ad. ;)

goldsp
24-07-2005, 09:13 PM

25-07-2005, 10:38 AM
Id posibly consider entering my car in the novice Sound Quality Event, I might have an ok chance, but ill certainly be finding about what other cars entering might be running system wise.Ill need a pretty big tune before i would even consider entering.

tidy protege
25-07-2005, 11:06 AM
ah ****, i cant enter it cause its only on the sunday

twilightprotege
25-07-2005, 11:28 AM
go home on the monday ;)

all i have to do now is run again and get into the 14's as the ET cutoff for all of the classes is 14.99 (will be having 2 more test and tunes prior to jambo - on 27 august and 10 sept). entries close 2 september so i've gotta get into the 14's on the 27th of august. gotta get microtech by then to start off with!!!

chicaboo
25-07-2005, 11:40 AM
****, if you can't get .235s out of the microtech and underdrive pulley something is seriously wrong! It doesn't look likely that I'll make the cut. You've got 100kW atw now, and even if I make it to just over 100kW atw it seems like a big ask to do a 14 still comparing your times...

twilightprotege
25-07-2005, 11:52 AM
dont forget your car's weight advantage, but see how you go.

i'm not so much concerned about not getting into the 14's once the engine is tuned, i'm concerned about getting the damn thing tuned!

tidy protege
25-07-2005, 11:57 AM
ill see what we are doing, id like to enter in the comp but i dont know if i can yet, i dont think you should any trouble breaking into the 14s once you have your engine management as that is the key unlocking the untaped power that you currently have andrew. All the best mate

As for you Gav just get your mods on the car in time and work on your times, you never know what could happen, as said before the 1.8 is a good motor with alot of potential and im sure that you of all people will be the first person to fulfil it.

twilightprotege
25-07-2005, 12:00 PM
oh and dont forget gav you'll be able to rev to 8000rpm with relative safety. i cant go anymore than 7200 (7000 will be my street limit, 7200 at the track)

tidy protege
25-07-2005, 12:05 PM
Christ 8000 rpm, when i do engine management the most id set my redline at would be 6900 or 7000 and have it tunned so that power comes on earlier on in the rev range as i have been in a current model celica with vvtli and it goes nicely but i dont like the idea of having a simular power band to those which rev to 7800 and only really come into their element at 5500 to 6000 rpm.

twilightprotege
25-07-2005, 12:52 PM
yeah 8000 for the 1.8's. that'd be the race rev limit, 7500 for the street

obviously breathability dependant. no point in going to 8k if you're loosing heaps of power up there or the valves are floating

chicaboo
25-07-2005, 01:29 PM

tidy protege
25-07-2005, 02:16 PM
We need to get started on the crank scraper, sump baffle and oil coolers too dude...

Forgive my ignorance but it sounds like you and andrew are chasing alot more power than 100 to 110 kw at the wheels.

I thought about it the other night andrews 170 to 175 whp target is more than acheivable na if you were to look at nitrous oxide as that would pull you across the line and it can be done quiet safely. I remember reading in a hot4's mag where they hooked some zex nitrous oxide up to a ****y diahatsu that made 48kw at the wheels stock was running mid to high 18 1/4 mile times and after the zex application it was making 76 kw at wheels was running a mid to low 15 1/4 mile. Is Nitrous Oxide a path to consider for you guys chasing sky high na power.

Hey twiggy, if your confordent your car will run a 14, I don't see why you can't just enter it. I can't imagine having to povide a time slip at the gate. Even then I'll give you one of my low 14 sec passes. ;) lol how are they going to proove it.

But then again, the practise might be good.

twilightprotege
26-07-2005, 08:21 AM
yeah it'll be a 14 second car for sure, the entry form just asks for a time. i guess i could put 14.9 and see what testing yields?

might even be able to get a bit of sponsorship out of it? dyson might chip in with a few bucks for some stickers on the windscreen etc and i know a tyre place that is coming up to jambo was interested in me "testing" a set of tyres they got for drag racing (dunlop - specifically for imports)

Nate
26-07-2005, 09:30 AM
im fair keen to come wat are the dates that we will be gone? ill keep in touch and see wat happens but id really like to get there

getting here on friday evening and leaving monday morning would be my minimum recommendation.

we are going to have to be up early on saturday and you guys and going ot be tired after driving all that way, and its always easier to get a few hours sleep before hitting the road.

brad if i was you i would hit the sack at 5pm sunday arvo, get up at midnight and do the longest drive to work you have ever done in your life ;) you will be back by 8 or 9 no problems.

it doesnt matter if you are tired at work. if you are tired drving that causes big problems tho!

chicaboo
10-08-2005, 12:30 PM
I've got no hope of running a 14.99 or better, so I could be a tentative show pony if there is nothing better available than a novelty SP18. Would be interesting to have the two SP18s on show at the same time...

Since you southerners are driving up the coast to Brisbane..... I'd be interested in meeting you at Ballina and then heading up the rest of the way with you on Friday night. Might be a bit of a help since you don't really know where your goin...

who is going to jambo for both days, but not competing or showing their car?

2 day general admission is $50, but first to take me up on the offer can have a 2 day pass for $40 (since my drag racing entry gets a buddy in as well)
