Yeah good cruise pity about Dezza writing off Adz's car.

Was more fun trying to get Dezza's car in to a driveable state.

Anyway, +1 vote for Dezza getting a new car and not bothering with his.

What happened here, fill me in!

Sundeep · 14-01-2007, 07:30 PM

Dezza was too busy giving the finger to Johnny Z and slammed in to Adz.

Adz's car is pretty much perfect, rear bar needs a spray but Dezza's car got PWN3D. We spent an hour trying to get the radiator support out to get it driveable, succeeded with a dog leesh and V8 power, then ripped the fan shroud off with pliers to finish the job.

Runs fine, but dayamn it's stuffed.

awesome cruise guys, had fun the whole way through the twisties, although it was a bit intimidating while john was behind me pssssssss dodododo

good attitutes everyone, and well done to everyone for behaving themselves

Christiaan · 14-01-2007, 07:42 PM

ADZ??!

Did ya start throwing punches?

The day someone hits me at an e-series cruise, is the day I go to my boot, get my batton, and kill the mongrel.

Sundeep · 14-01-2007, 07:46 PM

Yagz dude the cruise was pretty messed up, u bolts here there and everywhere. I almost smacked in to Obriza's new beast when we missed a turn and slowed down quicker than I was paying attention.

Why do you have a batton?

You get 3 months from the day the rego runs out to pay the rego costs. You just cant drive it in the meantime.

Dezza · 14-01-2007, 07:46 PM

I stuffed up. Simple as that. I looked away for half a second to give Shaun the finger, turned back and Adam had basically stopped. I wasn't paying enough attention and have payed the price. It was a fun cruise up till that point. I have two weeks till rego is due, so I have to decide in the two weeks whether to bother fixing it, or sell it for parts. The radiator is fine, as are the headlights and grille. The bonnet and bumper are stuffed, and the clutch fan is quite wonky (plus I no longer have a radiator shroud). The radiator support is bent so I don't know what to do.

AdzT3-146 · 14-01-2007, 07:50 PM

Was a great day up until said incident, but mistakes happen, while obviously being dissapointed i didn't go off my tree at dezza or anything :P
All I can say is thank god for my towbar!

Other than that i had a good day.

True. You handled it well. Hope the quote for your damage isn't too bad (particularily since I'm paying for it)

Christiaan · 14-01-2007, 07:54 PM

wow.

I woulda been throwing punches for ya Adz. That's pretty stupid Dezza.

One reason why i try to stay away from cruises now. They're fairly unorganised, which can lead to things like this happening.

malta123 · 14-01-2007, 07:58 PM

**** happens wait till you do it and see how you feel not like he ment it

Your a Tool mate, I wasn't there, but accidents happen all the time. I cant wait for the day someone runs up your ***, are you going to get out and bash them, Despite the fact they will prolly ream your *** for assault it will give you a nice criminal record.

Grow a brain mate, **** happens!

Yagz, you weren't there so I don't see how you can feel fit to comment.

You don't think I know it was stupid? It was very stupid. I have noone to blame but myself, and fortunately for Adam, his damage wasn't too bad. Thankfully Adam is a good bloke and I get on well with him. He wouldn't start throwing punches as he's too nice! I did apologise A LOT to him, and he won't be paying a cent for his damage. So please Yagz, just get off my back. Don't you think I feel guilty enough?

BTW. Thanks to everyone who helped get my car drivable again. You all saved me $350 for a towing fee, and it means I can still go to work tomorrow.

1) it wasn't 'stupid', it was an accident. Comments like that are ridiculous, but predictable from you ;p
2) the cruise wasn't unorganised, i made the map and directions as detailed as possible..

Thanks again for the attendence guys, glad people had a good time. p.s. what happened to the blue sapphire wagon after the maroondah reservoir ?

Anyway, some pics:

He had to go home, because he was having mates over to change the engine on his motorbike.

Your car aint anything out of the ordinary who cares if you dont come.
Adz you handled it well obvious mistake I have made this mistake as well when I was not paying attention and rang into the back of an old lady well down fantz/mr crackers good cruise all round. Love the twisties!

malta123 · 14-01-2007, 07:59 PM

should have some pics soon

AdzT3-146 · 14-01-2007, 08:00 PM

Lets keep it on topic guys and not discuss how we would all react to accidents.

Allen · 14-01-2007, 08:04 PM

It was an accident, simple as that, they happen every day...

I found it to be a great drive, even though the NF handles like a fully laden oil tanker :P

Im getting pics off the camera now, i didn't take a lot, but got a few nice ones...

Sundeep · 14-01-2007, 08:05 PM

Yagz bro take some personal time off the forums with your baton. You post too much ****.

Like I said because of the route and nature of a twisties cruise these things are more prone to happening.

SoooOOOOoooo Obriza's car is pretty mint huh?

Sundeep

Kenster · 14-01-2007, 08:09 PM

Cant wait for the photo i sort of slept in and realise by the time i find my own there i would be to late shame i miss out on obriza new ride
