6 cars turned up on a dreary melbourne sunday - 4 JA's, 1 JB/D, and 1 JD.
I have a few pics (and a couple of shaky video's) which i will link to once i can work out where to host them.
Edit: here's a couple of pics, more to come

There was heaps of traffic on the Great Ocean Road, but Al and I had a good fang on the inland route back home.

And a Silvia.
Loads of traffic on the GOR, and the carpark at lorne was full of pot holes, but the road to Winchelsea was nice after we passed the Porsche and Pulsar. Good twisty bits and a few long straights to wind out a little. Bit bumpy but :)
Great to see a couple of new blokes Graham and Rowan (hope I spelt both right) GMS lives about 2 k's from me and we haven't caught up until now!!!

You forgot to mention the nice coating of moisture on the road to keep things interesting, Al.
I have a couple of video's of your car too on that road if you want em. Nothing exciting, and the camera was hand held, so it's very shaky. 2 megs and 5 megs, i can't host em anywhere, so i'd have to send em to ya.
And apologies to all who copped some of my nice rich exhaust fumes. I think it's about time to get something done about that

Should've brought the missus along Cam. I brought mine, she had a good time.
And there's plenty of shops in Torquay, Geelong, Lorne. Could've made a day of it.
Of course, after all that shopping, you'd need to drive extra hard to catch up

Yeah, there were little bits of wet. Makes it a little hard to play hard, and not knowing the roads too well either. Good fun but at a brisk pace :D
Hope the GF was ok, I know my other half would have freaked if I drove that quick with her in the car. The straight bits were a bit hairy, way too bumpy. Can you send me the files
ajs@pbn.com.au wouldn't mind a look.
good cruise

haha, she promised in advance to not say anything about my driving, so i basically had free reign.. She was more worried about the high speed straights rather than the twisties surprisingly.
Al, i'll send u the smaller one first, so u can decide whether it's worth getting the larger video
And thanks for organising the cruise Al, you're allways the only one who puts in the effort to get these things going in melb
