Sorry - another thing if we are going to do a Sunday pre G4 trip planning and recovery run then I would suggest we do it on the 26th August the weekend before?? Any ideas or suggestions to this, also where to have it. I would say my place but my front lawn is flat and no trees, unles you want to winch of the house:eek: :eek: but we can bbq at the back. Any other ideas form the other G4 attend's.
Actually 9-10th September seems to work better on the calendar (keeping at least one free weekend in between weekend trips) with the pre-G4 vehicle check on the 3rd September.
Vehicle Check will probably be at Ormeau... i'll bring out the bbq etc. then we can have a good look at the recovery points and check flexing etc. on a couple of the tracks.
The tracks we're going to for the G4 Night Run are around a 2.5hr drive from the Gold Coast but as the run is starting around 8pm, no real reason it needs to be a complete weekend.
Will confirm dates shortly ;)
Will have to wait on confirmed dates as work gets a bit funny when you apply for leave and then change the dates.Quote:

Anyway, back now and ready for some action. 8-9th or 9-10th seems to be the go for this one, any preference for the Friday or Saturday night and we'll go with the most popular.
I'm keen as mustard for this one but given the prospect of some of the terrain plus I only have 1 locker and 32" tyres (and massive spring sag) I am 90% confirmed - just want to chat to Glen first and pass the pre trip insepction.;) Being over cautious i'm sure but everyone has to make it through these sections otherwise it's a long night for all in attendance.
Anyway, can't wait, 8-9 suits me better, what's the thoughts on accomodation or are we just driving through the whole night!!
Aye, Mick
Looks like we are driving through the whole night I assume. Wouldn't worry about your car mick. Your Disco goes anywhwere. Mine prolly won't have any lockers for the trip which will be interesting but worth a lash..why not

I'm thinking 9-10th will be the easiest... current plan as far as i know will be to start around 8pm and finish around 3am so assuming doing that after a day at work may be a touch too much :D
That way can head to the area to set up whenever suitable be it saturday morning or evening :p
Remember will take around 2.5hrs to reach the destination from the GC (and no not ipswich) :twisted:
1 1/2 hours for me :twisted: :twisted:Quote:

I would not like to think anyone would crash on the way home due to lack of sleep, beside that I think you may like to have a drive on the sunday for a few hours. It's amazing what you see during the day retracking the night run. May be an opertunity on the sunday for other club members to join us for a drive. Welcome home Mick. I will be doing a run to this area in the next few weeks to run through some new tracks and testing the new lockers on the black truck, If anyone wants join in post up on this thread. It will be an over nighter.

As for the actual trip date 9th - 10th September. I will get the time off tomorrow so you can count me in as a definite attendee.
