OrangeLJ: If you can put away $20 a week till this cruise is on, that should see you fairly close to $200! I'm pretty sure that you can do a fair cruise with a couple hundred bucks!
Get in contact with TUFF and see if he's going to come down, he usually does come along on a run like this!
Basically the only costs for the day are any food you decide to buy, and the drive ins... and of course fuel. But i think that even doing the "short cruise" shouldnt be TOO hungry on the petrol. I'm budgeting around $50 in the monaro for the run!
Cheers!

I think a full tank ($50) should be enough
to do this run easily, Now i wonder if we
can get REDA9X to come out with the Red/
Black beast????

Cheers for that guys, you certainly did your homework - gold stars all round LOL 
I would also lean towards the short run cause as others have said it will be a LONG day if we go the other option. All i need is a start place & time and i will be there for sure.
cheers,
mick

hehe yeah, The rain! Gawd it was a delight to see for a change.. but WOW it rained HARD!
I hope that it keeps raining.. but not on the cruise day! the Monaro's wipers woudlnt keep up and we would get WET!
I think the short cruise route would be best, And we were thinking of meeting at Bunnings carpark at Casula. That or maybe Krispy Kremes or maccas on Hume Highway... I think that meeting at around 10Am would be HEAPS of time to go for a look at Mt Kiera, then head down to the dam for a picnic... then cruise off round the back of picton to warragamba and back towards eastern creek/drive ins.
Cheers!

the other suggestion was the eastern creek tavern, they have among other things pizza if you are budget concious as we all are.
EDIT; can we get the cricketers arms menu?

no i meant as in all these people reading this forum are along the east coast or close to it in NSW, not as in the central coast, i just meant they would be closer to the show to have a look.
