N.S.W Sydney to Newcastle cruise day - PHOTO GALLERY
I just wanted to say it was really great to finally meet everyone.
I was a fantastic day, and i really hope we can do another event in the near future.
It was great for the Guys and Girls to make the effort to come up from Sydney, and I hope you enjoyed beautiful Newcastle and the scenery.
It was awesome to see so many cars, and that we picked up a potential new member on the way
Here are some photos for everyone to enjoy
At the original meeting point (Twin servos between Sydney and newy)
------------------------------
------------------------------
------------------------------
We pulled over for a quick stop and another Galant pulled in with us,
and came along for the drive
Think we found a new member
------------------------------
Dont get to see so many nice early girls in a row like this often
------------------------------
We made it to Newcastle foreshore, and as it happened the Newcastle Holden Commodore club were holding abit of a show and shine.
So TRIIKY organised us some VIP parking.
Was great to see lots of people walking over to check out the Beasts too!
------------------------------
I have heaps more photos and Video to come.
Great day!
Cheers Dan

Re: N.S.W Sydney to Newcastle cruise day - PHOTO GALLERY
i forgot the camera but it was a great day.....
plenty of fun, bit of tyre smoke and the odd drag race at the lights
was great to put some names to faces and possibly add a few new members who spoted us along the way...
on a lighter note, i had a little scare when driftforlife started his car just behind me but still had it in gear - just about had to go back into maccas and check my undies
hope it gives all of us some inspiration / ideas fore their cars.
i know that i am now going to be getting some new seats after having a seat in daves (75wagon) car.
cant wait for the next cruise!
cheers,
dean

I'd like to thank Wayne (ozgdgalants) for making the trip.
This guy has all the hard to get brochures and info on all the nic nac's that you can get for Galants.... Made my day, Thanx mate...... looking forward to next time.
Dave.
For the record Dan, Fergus rates your car as the best one there, he said quote "Dan's car's heaps good, sounds like a Jet"

The wagons just had to cruise together.....
How about some more wagons for the next cruise? There has to be some more out there, somewhere?

Re: N.S.W Sydney to Newcastle cruise day - PHOTO GALLERY
What a day! Bloody awesome to get out finally and cruise with some of the sg crew! Great to put faces to names and i certainly enjoyed checking out everyones cars chatting and random shenanigans... I enjoyed the lil wagons and certainly great to read the galant release docs, see the standard and practically concourse engine bay too. The boys with the n/a's had some nice subtle mods and tidy engine bays and well dans lancer.... It had my attention the minute i pulled in....
Driftforlife man can you send the vid to me by email by chance???
Here's my pics for the day. Fired a couple off on my phone but mostly didnt worry taking too many.
Bloody great day thanks again all who came and to those who organised it!
