Reclaim the Capital, July
Right-Oh. So it's all happening again next week. Friday the 30th, this will be my first attendance at a Reclaim Wellington cruise, hoping it'll be a biggy.
Meeting place is the same at Beaurepairs Kaiwharawhara down the bottom of Ngaio Gorge. Meeting time is the same, 9PM.
I have it on good authority that the route designer has chucked a couple of corners in this month to test the 185's Kim has fitted to the front of The Family Car.
Looking real forward to meet some more V8 heads. Hands up who's coming?

Told the missus it was a Mopar, or no car. She said "Enjoy the bus" so we've got an HSV.....

Hey Allan, I've got a spare seat in the Dunny Door if you're stuck for wheels and doing nothing else. That's if you don't mind cruising in a bog stock boring car that is.
If you're keen, let me know.

It's pretty cool allright. Be great if you could make it down for one soon Todd, I'm sure the Auckland crew can look after themselves for a night

At this stage there are no plans to exclude anyone or anything from these cruises.
We don`t see ourselves as being the types to be so anal as to exclude anyone because of the type or country of origin or engine type of any car.
Whilst the event will always be an NZV8 cruise it will be all encompassing.
That is the plan at this point anyway ..
Exclusions will be on a behaviour basis however !!

Re: Reclaim the Capital, July
I should have this fuel problem sorted and be there with skinny little bells on the front anyway.. I'm looking forward to the new route and catching up with some of the cruisers.. there's a Corvette owners club meeting in Porirua at Repco involving a BBQ so I may head to that beforehand to check it out and see if I can see Wiremu or any of the other regulars out that way and get them to head into town too..

Will certainly give it a shot. May have to head down to Wgtn to pick up some stuff at some stage, so will see if we can make it co-incide with the end of the month.
