Hi Guys,
By popular demand I'm posting that we will be having a mini road trip to KZN over the weekend of the Top gear Festival.
The plan is to leave on the Friday morning 14th June and spend the weekend in Durbs, whether you go to Top Gear or not. Have a dyno run on the saturday and then pretty much just enjoying the cars at the coast while we are there.
Then heading back the monday morning to GP. 17th June (Public Holiday)
Convoy route: The PTA guys can meet up at the Caltex (Maxis Bridge) by new road offramp at 06:00 sharp (that means 05:45). Then depart together to the next meet where the JHB guys can gather so long.
I think there is an Engen 1stop garage just outside of Alberton heading toward Durbs. We can meet there at around 06:15-06:30 and depart soon after.
This is not a race to see who get's to Durbs first. This is a road trip we will partake in together enjoying the cars and being courteous to one another. (No swerving or ridiculous overtaking causing stone chips etc. You will be asked to leave the convoy) I'm saying this as there is a lot of ///M cars that want to experience coastal power, and the owners don't want to damage their precious paint work.
I am however going to GOOI MIELIES when I exit the toll gates as I love the sound that emanates from the cement surfaces. I will also enjoy taking the corners responsibly through van reenen's pass as this is where the ///M's excel right? All whilst not going off the road flicking up debris infront of my fellow Fanatic.
So let's enjoy the trip, enjoy the cars and not inflict stone chips upon each other.
Feel free to add your name to the list, if not you are still more than welcome to join, but If you're late we won't wait for stragglers.
PS. This original post will be updated with any changes. Times meeting points etc. So feel free to comment and add suggestions. The Engen I'm referring to still needs to be confirmed.
Thanks :thumbs:
