» CMF MemberOkay, I've posted some details for our meet. I'll drive to the selected rally point this Sunday to check that it's not too congested on Sundays at the time we will be meeting.
More info to follow. Keep checking up regularly for updates.

» CMF MemberHahaha what the hell. The meet point is literally about 2 minutes from me. It's literally one major street over from my place.
There used to be four servos on that intersection - one on each corner. There's only 3 now. There's two mobils on opposite corners and a shell, which is where I've often filled up my car. There's also a car wash next to one of the mobils if people wanna wash their car before attending.
Carpark might be a little busy on sunday morning because of shopping and whatnot. Might try and think of somewhere nearby (possibly village green accross the road) that will have adequate parking that's easily accessible.
Here's me thinking i'd be going somewhere I hadn't been before. I know of a few good routes up in the dandenongs, and i'll be bringing a mate who knows almost every road like the back of his hand, so no probs there.
That's just so wierd

» CMF MemberYes, good idea about the parking. I'll amend the notes.

» CMF MemberThen again if we don't have that many cars, we should be able to find somewhere appropriate.
I'll try and see how busy the places gets this sunday so I can get a bit of an impression of how things will be.
There are BBQ's spread around jells park too, so there's always the possibility of that for lunch or something. Either that, or going to one of the lookouts for lunch or to skyhigh (though entry there is $4 per car).

» CMF MemberHey Dens,
That would be a help if you could check it out for me and get back to us. I was going to fit it in but I am kinda busy atm.

CMF_deNs
» CMF MemberThat's alright mate. I'd say even village green might get a little busy on a sunday, but I'd say even then there'd be enough room for us and would be easy enough to find everyone.
There's access to village green after the intersection going westbound on ferntree gully rd and access before the intersection going northbound on springvale rd. Should all be pretty clear in the melways.
There's a coles in brandon park if we need any bbq supplies on the day, though we can sort out who can bring what before hand to make things easier if we want to do a bbq

» CMF MemberI am away for a week, leaving Monday. So over these next fives days I need a final confirmation of those planning to attend the meet. Check the details etc in the events listing.
Meeting place will be as listed, we can decided on the day where we want to drive to.

» CMF MemberAfter watching the Village Green carpark on sunday mornings, it actually seems a little busier than Brandon Park. We should still be ok if we don't want to change it, though from what i've seen we'd likely have a bit more room in brandon park.
Would've thought the shopping centre would have been busier, though I guess I was wrong..
The car should be back together and on the road by then, dispite the unbelieveably bad luck I seem to be having this week.

» CMF MemberAlright guys - the meet is this sunday if any of you have forgotten. Just a few things to mention:
It's daylight savings as of sunday, which means that time will be moved forward an hour (I think..) so theoretically it's like being there at 9am instead of 10.
Since mipcar is away this week doing stuff, if you need to contact someone for finding where the meet point is or any other info - you can call my mobile - 0403 806 966.
I'll sketch up a map of where to meet in the carpark on the sunday morning so it's easier to find everyone.

» CMF MemberHey Dens, Mate your a champ. Thanks for minding the store. You've mentioned everything I'd thought of. Only other suggestion I have is if anyone has hand held UHF radios bring them along.
My contact number is 59444078. Mobile on the day is 0412749919.

» CMF MemberOh, yeah I might be able to get a few radios too. I'll call up a couple of mates and see how many I can get
Here's the map of the meet place and whatnot. The two parking options I've shown were picked so it'd be pretty easy to find everyone.
**EDIT: Look further down for updated map**
If you need any other details don't hesitate to ask. Would be handy if you could confirm you're coming by posting in here, too.

» CMF MemberWow... I hadn't actually looked very far for one - wreckers are your best bet, though I wouldn't bother looking at datspares.
Nissan can be pretty insane with their pricing, though i'm wondering what actually comes with that $450 to justify that.
Anyhow, we can all discuss it tomorrow

» CMF MemberJust updating the meet spot in the carpark. My mate who works at village green said the front car parks fill up quick - so we'll meet at the spot marked below. It's the part of the car park right next to the subaru dealer.
I'll aim to arrive earlier than 10 to make sure i'm actually there on time
New Map (IF IT DOESN'T UPDATE - press SHIFT-F5 to force refresh!):

» CMF MemberWith little sleep (was working my skyline till 4am this morning) and no running car atm, I just dropped past the meet point on my scooter to see Dens leading the Pack out
Hope everyone has fun today should be a good day, with the wind keeping the tourists away from the twisties
