^^ Watch out for wildlife! LOL.

4am in the morning on Appin road.. no thanks haha

I used to ride to ingleburn every day around that time on my motorbike in any weather for work.

I did hit a dead wallaby at 110 klms once, not fun times at all, so yeah I know what you mean about wildlife.

Barry, the "M7" is actualy made up of a bunch of different motorways.

The toll you can pay in cash at the penant hills road (cumberland highway) is for the M2, then the M7 is cashless tolling only.

both roads are seameless (as in once you are going along, if you dont notice the "end of M2" signs you cop the toll for the next motorway)

I'll be there, might have the purple car on the trailer as an unfinished project (ie. no glass, no interior, not much at all really!

With the regards to the Sydney Torana Club convoy from thornleigh maccas, are there any plans to stop on the way up? Perhaps at the twin servos past the tuggerah exit?

I only ask cause i have to pick a mate up from there and i dont want to leave the pack as i dont know where i'm going in Newcastle (only been there once before)

Dont know if people might need to stop for fuel or whatever

You should be able to see and hear the convoy for a while.

Make sure you get some pics of the convoy guys.

That's exactly what I was saying.

I've already got my "Visitors Pass" from tomorrow till Tuesday and I'll have the coins out for that last section coming off and then back on the Westlink.

AND I never get lost in Sydney, just geographically embarrassed :tease:

orangeLJ

I'll be there, might have the purple car on the trailer as an unfinished project (ie. no glass, no interior, not much at all really!

Doesn't matter mate :spoton:

at least you will be there :clappin:

and after all, that is your pride and joy

Bet it won't be like that for Toranafest 2010 :rockon:

Seeya there

Regards .... Barry

There must be a couple of early birds here already, seen 4 different Toranas around Newcastle today.Don't know if they were locals or not, although they didn't look familiar.
