Ran into a big Street Race Gathering accidentally....

Was going to Wendy's with some friends to get a burger and lo and behold, we see the Wendy's car park with 6 Impreza WRX STi's (one with the 555 decal), lots of classic American cars with no hoods and the engines sticking out (like the charger? at the end of the Fast and Furious), lot of Vettes (old and new), EVOs, Dodge Neons, Escalades, Wranglers, CTS-V, Acuras, and of course, lots of Civics all modded. The neighbouring car parks were also full of such cars. I wanted to hang around, but my friend whose car I came in didnt because the car was his father-in-laws to begin with and the some of the guys didnt look friendly.......so sadly we left.

Some pics that I took, didnt wanted to go around taking pics especially when some of their girlfriends were sitting/standing on the cars.

The day before yesterday, I was driving home from work and guess which elite group i stumbled into? THE ADELAIDE R33 SKYLINE club! they were heading back home at around 4 in the morning from a cruise and one guy I know told me they went 200km out of Adelaide, did a bit of drag amongst themselves in a small town and got back just after.

Guess who the biggest arch enemy of the club is? The R32 GTR club which allows GTS-Ts to go for cruises with them. NOW, how does that sound? R32 GTR vs the R33 club? If I get some pics from that cruise I will definitely post it. The Soarer club (of which I am a member) had the annual cruise in April. We went to a place called Murray Bridge, did donuts, burnouts and drags, had few beers each and drove back home a bit "pankha"

take care

hey guys
this gives me enuf satisfaction to come back to the site and say hi to u all again!

There are a number of R34s in Adelaide, but this is probably the town which holds least number of Skylines. Bigger cities like Melbourne and Sydney would have a lot more to offer, but I really dont know if they wud have a R34 club or not, to be honest. I wud think they take their cars and merge with the existing Skyline clubs. Once they are of age and a few more 34s emerge in the scene, only then they could probably form clubs based on each cities.

Being a part of the Soarer club doesnt hold much value to me, except some mechanics are "friendly" towards the members from the club and offer us a discount in every mechanical repairs, plus the bumber sticker that highlights its image. The best part of the club is the meet up when they get pankha and thats when the real cruise begins!

Ta ta
