abbott Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I'm definitely keen for hills maybe up through lobey then to meadows and Clarendon or something! Should have my car in the next 2 weeks if all goes to plan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkidzMgee Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Anyone else run Montecute Rd much? Or is Gorge good enough for most people? I just hate all the cyclists on Gorge >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lachlano2000 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 bit late here but i cruise montecute road every now and then and i live at the bottom of greenhill road so that gets driven daily. currently not driving a rolla as my last one got defected but I'm picking up an engine in the next week hopefully and then i'll be looking at getting another ke70 on the road ASAP and would be very interested on cruises.

SkidzMgee Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I find greenhill has a lot of slow people on it... and Cyclists that I like to hit. And throw empty paint cans at... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lachlano2000 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 yeah your right there are lots of slow people on it and they usually don't like to pull over at the few spots they can -_- but if you know the road its easy enough to overtake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lachlano2000 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 yeah used to do it in my stock ke70 i'd back off about 50m wait til they enter the corner then drop it back to either 2nd or 3rd depending on speed fly round the corner exit on the wrong side of the road if the road is clear and just wave as you go past. anything with a 3k in it will struggle but its still possibly if you can time it right as i managed to do this in my festiva(don't laugh it was a very cheap daily) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLO-030 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Better not be any of that on RC cruises! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbott Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Totally agree Ryan. If you wanna go do that, go for it but don't want those antics getting the rest of us in the shit.

As others have said, there is a time and a place for driving like a complete wanker, and that would be a race track, not a public road where you can kill someone because you don't have the mental capacity to operate your vehicle in a safe manner with respect to other road users.

Amen sister! Lol kidding but yeah, and don't take it as a personal attack but no one wants to see anyone get hurt or there pride and joy ruined! If you wanna see what idiotic driving can do to a car forum and cruising. Look at nissansilvia.com/hardtuned and find the thread about the idiot who rolled his car mid cruise being a wanker. Link anyone?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLO-030 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 nothing wrong with having a good time meeting people with like minded interests such as corollas but come on if ya wanna express yourself by driving your car fast who are you really impressing ?? Exactly Matt! Some times the meet and socialising by far exceed the drive itself. I remember a while ago a younger guy driving Tally's old KE70 decided a dusty emergency lane was a good place to over take Lesley and a couple others. Meanwhile flicking up stones and dust all over a bunch of freshly washed corollas. There were a couple people fuming, to say the least :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
