    Hi Matt,

    I'm on the Central Coast and thinking of joining the guys from Newcastle via the inland way of getting to Orange. Here is some information:http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1455484#post1455484

    I'm directing traffic to this thread so that the Newcastle & Central Coast guys can all go the same way.

    Suggested way to get there:

    I've PMd Ben (shineyzx) to hop on this thread so that we can pull this off.
    if someone from Newcastle can come up with a meeting location and time via the inland way Please let me know.

    Personally, If we can meet up at Weston somewhere, I'm good :)
    Just need to know where exactly in Weston and a time.

    How about somewhere in Kurri Kurri where we can GPS the location to avoid getting lost. Somewhere easy to find for those unfamiliar with that part of the world.

    Peter.

    Hi Ben,

    Glad to see you on here. I messaged you but just discovered it went to the wrong person in error. All good. So lets get this happening....

    What's the new puma? a petrol station?
    I will have to find out the address so that I can GPS it so I don't muck around getting lost. I'm not that familiar with that area.
    Can you please confirm?

    It looks like so far it's Matt, You and I. Anyone else from Newcastle area?

    Peter

    mmk, looking at meeting up with the sydney crew at coles carpark in bathurst by 1:30 (at the latest) meaning we have to leave by 9/930am (4 hours to bathurst)
    the address of the pump. ive started the map from the street next to the servo, if you guys wanted to leave before then let me know (smoko/rest breaks, lunch?)
    from jerry plains to a bit before murrumbo the road isnt a freeway by any means but looks like a nice country drive (and is all sealed by the looks of maps)
    let me know if you wanted to change anything
    Ben

    edit: i think mum has a friend comeing with us in a 350z but apart from that just us

    Thanks Ben for making that suggestion.

    So we'll meet at Northcote St, Kurri Kurri say at 9am. That is fine with me :)

    It will be a beautiful drive!! (I'll be in my Z for a change. Not in the green Laser)

    Thoughts Matt, regarding the meeting location?

    It takes approx. 4 hrs to get to Bathurst from Northcote St, Kurri Kurri.
    Were meeting up there with everyone else @ 1:30pm
    That means that we need to be leaving Kurri Kurri @ 9am + 4hrs = 1pm
    That will be a nice and comfortable drive and sticking to the speed limit.

    Are we good to meet up at 9am?

    I have confirmed with Ben that we're good to meet at 9am at Northcote st, Kurri Kurri.

    See you guys Friday Morning!
