At the risk of starting a huge debate, where is the risk? Let me expand a little...David Cavanagh:
We're all busy worrying about the public liability insurance to actually do anything.

My thoughts,
For starters lets have a name change from Cruises to HOONS. From the bragging posts in the reflections thread. That's what quite a few were doing, " Driving irresponsibly & without witnessing it Stupidly on PUBLIC ROADS"
It's easy to see why most aren't interested in joining clubs to get runs organised or do their racing on tracks. You simply wont follow rules & want to do your own thing.
The two cars that came to grief, if your insurance company or TAC found out what you were up to you'd be well on your way up shit creek without a paddle & as a result if anyone had been injured in those cars the other 19 drivers could easily have been learning what PUBLIC LIABILITY is all about!!!!!!!!!
My $0.02's worth.
However i'm pleased you all enjoyed yourselves on your saturday Hoon thru the bush.
Ps:- From your own reports there's no way i'd recomend any of the clubs i'm associated with arrange an event for your entertainment. Two reasons,
1/ To be covered by the club insurance you'd need to be a member of that or of an invited club. (there seems to be a reluctance among the younger people on this forum to do this)
2/ The behavior of many of the drivers would bring the club into disrepute.
There is no place on public roads for the Testosterone debate "mines faster & badder than yours."
If you don't wish to join a club. The melb guys can hire Calder for $160 8am till 4pm and drive all day with only themselves at risk, Winton is als available somewhat cheaper, or there's the friday night Police sponsered street DRAGS, I think the entry fee is $100. However the cars are scrutineered before going on the track for any of these events.
Please elaborate, I wasn't thereDoubleChevron:
Hi Guys,
I'll add to that, I felt like getting some Renault Gordini & Alpine drivers and repetivly beating them in the head for the way they left the AFCD. Sure it's great to see a Gordini & alpine being 'driven', seeya,

Obviously 2 certain peugeot drivers didn't take it easy enough....Andreas:
Many pulled over when someone wanted to pass, i didnt witness any stupid stunts and we all took it easier due to the slippery roads.

I hope both concerned were alright and not to much damage was done to the pugs.
I would have to agree with Damien however. Inevitably, when lots of young male testosterone fuelled drivers come together in the same place and are heading to the same destination, the brain takes a back seat to the d**k. It tends to turn from a cruise into targa-victoria.
well its good to have some fun but i do agree with some things but if you just drive and have no fun then people will not came for the drive,and ive been on the sydney drives and its been so much fun everyone enjoys then selfs and its just no the young people that enjoy then selfs as well
