god, all you bloody freeway people. i drive on that road everyday, so id rather take a nicer road! haha.
The pacific highway is an awesome road to drive, and is much better then the freeway
we will (fingers crossed) be heading up the old road with a convoy of four LJs.

You will miss seeing 2 lanes chockas with Torries then..it is a sight to behold.
When they stop on the Link road at the other end it is pretty specky too.

Ok that wasnt funny.. but im happy to do the freeway... Shame it's TORANAfest... I reckon it would be a nice cruise in the monaro!
See how it goes!

its made the trip up the freeway 3-4 times now & still pulls just as hard, although the oil pressure slowly drops throughout the day and it tops out at 3100rpm doing 80mph (my speedo is not calibrated correctly so i have no clue what speed im doing ).
).

Sorry fellas wont be going this time still got a broken axle Im taking the diff out on sunday.Im taking it to Mark williams components to get 31 spline billet axles. Its going to take 4 to 5 weeks to get them from the states & THAT S__KS....Make sure you guys take heaps of photos & post them. Maybe next time & watch out for the boys in blue take it easy and enjoy the cruise up there...NO FREEWAY RACING you know what curiosity did ! ! ! !..Have a safe trip...Jason..P.S dont forget to take tools,water,fanbelts & hoses. Just a thought...

COME ON SYDNEY
So far only 6 Torana's & a ford are travelling
up the F3 to Toranafest, i would love to see a 100 Torana's or
more smothering the F3. Just imagine the Hawksbury bridge
covered in Torries from end to the other what a mind blowing
sight to be seen.
